TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1992 DODGE DAKOTA.

THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 00V106000(POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:GEAR POSITION INDICATION PRNDL) BUT WAS ADVISED BY THE MANUFACTURER THAT THE RECALL WAS NO LONGER AVAILABLE.

ON MY 1992 DODGE DAKOTA (V8 5.2L WITH AT, 4X4) THE ENGINE QUITS INTERMITTENTLY, SOMETIMES WHILE PARKED IDLING AND OTHER TIMES WHILE DRIVING. IT DOES IT WITHOUT WARNING, AS IF THE KEY IS TURNED OFF. SOMETIMES IT STARTS RIGHT UP AGAIN AND OTHER TIMES IT WILL HAVE TO CRANK FOR A WHILE BEFORE IT STARTS. I'VE HAD IT TO 2 DIFFERENT MECHANICS AND THEY CAN'T DETERMINE THE CAUSE. ALL SENSORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED AS WELL AS A NEW FUEL PUMP AND THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE. TRUCK HAS JUST OVER 50,000 MILES ON IT. I'VE HAD IT FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS AND THE PROBLEM STARTED ABOUT A YEAR AGO. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN IT HAPPENS IN TRAFFIC OR ON THE INTERSTATE. *TR

I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY GARAGE ON MY WAY TO A JOB INTERVIEW, WHEN I REALIZED I FORGOT SOMETHING . I DROVE BACK IN THE GARAGE, PUT THE SHIFTER IN PARK AND I STEPPED OUT OF THE TRUCK. NO SOONER HAD I GOTTEN AROUND THE TRUCK DOOR WHEN THE TRUCK JUST STARTED BACKING UP BY ITSELF. I ATTEMPTED TO JUMP BACK IN TO STOP IT BECAUSE I DID NOT WANT THE TRUCK TO HIT SOMEBODY . BUT THE MOMENTUM WAS TO QUICK AND THE DOOR SLAMMED AGAINST ME HITTING THE LEFT SIDE OF MY BODY,BOTH MY KNEES WERE KNOCKED TOGETHER,CAUSING BRUISING AND SOME SWELLING. I ALSO HAD A SMALL CUT ON MY RIGHT INDEX FINGER WHEN THE DOOR HIT ME,IT PUSHED MY ARM BACK AND MY FINGER HIT MY FRONT TEETH. I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS VERY SAME PROBLEM(PARK-TO-REVERSE). THIS IS THE FIRST TIME SINCE I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE IN MY POSSESSION THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED. I CALLED A DODGE DEALERSHIP IN B.R. AND THEY TOLD ME THIS VIN NUMBER WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE TRUCK WAS BOUGHT USED SO I DO NOT KNOW IF THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE PARK-TO-REVERSE. SINCE THE ACCIDENT, I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO WORK AND HAVE BEEN SUFFERING WITH A LOT OF BACK, LEG, AND KNEE PAIN. *TR

2 ISSUES-THE POWER TRAIN-I DON'T THINK IT WAS EVER FIXED AS MY GEARSHIFT LEVER INDICATOR IS NOT IN THE GEAR IT INDICATES-CAN THIS STILL BE FIXED UNDER THE RECALL-2ND PROBLEM-I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE TRUCK JUST SHUTS ITSELF OFF WITHOUT WARNING-SOMETIMES IT WILL RESTART AFTER SITTING A FEW MINUTES BUT YESTERDAY I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED WITH MY 74 YR. OLD MOTHER-I HAVE BEEN ON THE FREEWAY AND HAD THE SHUTDOWN OCCUR-I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN-I AM NOT THE FIRST OWNER BUT THE GUY I GOT IT FROM TOLD ME ABOUT THIS ISSUE AFTER I HAD BOUGHT IT -I THOUGHT THE FUEL FILTER MAY BE PLUGGED AND HAD A COMPLETE TUNE-UP-STILL THE PROBLEM CONTINUES-IS THERE ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THIS VEHICLE-THANKS BARB *TR

VEHICLE FRAME IS DISINTERGRATING, BREAKING OFF IN BIG CHUNKS, IN TIRE FRAME FROM CAB BACK MUST BE REPLACED. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN GARAGE KEPT FOR 8 OF ITS 10 YEARS. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD THE SALT WASHED OFF FREQUENTLY DURING THE WINTERS ALSO. THIS MUST BE A DEFECT IN THE FRAME MATERIAL. DT

15 DAYS AFTER PUCHASING THIS VEHICLE IT CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT. THE FIRE DESTROYED EVERYTHING UNDER THE HOOD BUT THE METAL ENGINE PARTS AS WELL AS MELTED PART OF THE DASH & CARPET ON THE INTERIOR. AFTER PRYING OPEN THE HOOD & DOUSING THE FLAMES COMPLETELY, THE FIRE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME THAT A FUEL LINE LEAK HAD CAUSED THE BLAZE. APPARENTLY SOME FUEL LEAKED FROM THE LINE NEAR THE FUEL INJECTOR ASSEMBLY ON TOP OF THE ENGINE & AN ELECTRICAL SHORT CAUSED THE FUEL TO IGNITE. THANKFULLY I WAS ALONE WHEN THIS HAPPENED BECAUSE THE CAB FILLED W/SMOKE BEFORE I EVEN GOT PULLED OVER & I HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN NO SMALL TASK GETTING THEM OUT SAFELY. THE DAMAGE WAS ESTIMATED @OVER $2000 BECAUSE OF THE COST OF THE WIRING & COMPUTER, NOT TO MENTION THE COST OF LABOR TO PUT IT BACK TOGETHER AGAIN. I ONLY HAD LIABILITY ON THE VEHICLE, SO MY ONLY HOPE OF GETTING THIS THING FIXED W/OUT LOSING MY TAIL IS IF THE MANUFACTURER WILL STAND BEHIND ITS PRODUCT AND FIX IT. MY BROTHER-IN-LAW ONLY RECENTLY INFORMED ME OF THE NHTSA WEB SITE, OR I CERTAINLY WOULD HAVE REPORTED THIS EARLIER. PLEASE HELP ANY WAY YOU CAN, MY FAMILY & I WOULD BE MOST APPRECIATIVE. THANKS. *AK
