2011 Dodge Ram 2500 complaints

JANUARY 21, 2014- RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE N49. (LEFT TIE ROD BALL STUD FAILURE). CONTACTED A LOCAL TEXAS DODGE DEALER AND WAS PLACED ON THE APPOINTMENT LIST, PARTS ORDERED. DEALER SAID THAT I WOULD BE CONTACTED WHEN THE PART ARRIVED. (SEEN THE RECALL NOTICE UPDATES THAT STATED IT WOULD BE APRIL BEFORE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE). 03/22/14 - WAS BACKING OUT OF PARKING SPOT AND LEFT TIE ROD BALL STUD BUSTED, TIRE TWISTED SIDEWAYS. THE SCARY PART- JUST 45-50 MILES EARLIER, SAME TANK OF GAS, I HAD BEEN PULLING MY FIFTH WHEEL TRAILER DOWN THE HIGHWAY IN TEXAS. I AM SHAKING THINKING ABOUT WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED ON THE THRUWAY IF IT HAD BUSTED JUST A FEW MILES EARLIER OR IF I HAD A FEW MILES FURTHER TO DRIVE! *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE RAM 2500. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 13V529000 (STEERING). THE CONTACT STATED THE WAIT FOR THE DEALER TO PERFORM THE REPAIR HAD EXCEEDED A REASONABLE TIMEFRAME. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THEY ARE ALLOWED TWO REPAIR KITS PER WEEK.THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS NUMBER FOUR ON THE WAITING LIST AND WOULD BE REPAIRED IN APPROXIMATELY FOUR MONTHS. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCE THE FAILURE.

IT APPEARS THE COMPLAINT IS THE SAME AS MANY. HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THIS RECALL TAKEN CARE OF AND FROM THE BEGIN AND HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THREE DEALERS THE SAME ANSWER! CHRYSLER WON'T SEND US THE PARTS PARTS. SO I HAVE BEEN ON THE LIST SINCE JANUARY 6TH. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO HAVE AN INJURY LIKE WITH TOYOTA OR GM BEFORE THE PROBLEM CAN GET FIXED. DISGUSTED WITH CHRYSLER TO SAY THE LEAST AS ARE THE DEALERS!!! *TR

RECEIVED A RECALL ON MY TRUCK (N49/NHTSA 13V-529). IMMEDIATELY TOOK TRUCK TO DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION AS THE RECALL STATES THE "LEFT TIE ROD BALL STUD ON YOUR TRUCK MAY FRACTURE UNDER CERTAIN DRIVING CONDITIONS. THIS COULD CAUSE A LOSS OF DIRECTIONAL CONTROL AND/OR CRASH WITHOUT WARNING.) THE DEALER (FRONTIER DODGE IN EL RENO, OKLA.) INSPECTED THE TRUCK AND TOLD ME THAT INDEED, MY TRUCK DID HAVE THE FAULTY PARTS AND THAT THE TIE RODS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ON BOTH SIDES. THEY STATED THEY WOULD ORDER THE PARTS AND CONTACT ME FOR REPAIRS. TO DATE, THE DEALER HAS NOT CONTACTED ME FOR REPAIRS. TWO WEEKS AGO, I CONTACTED THEM AND ASKED THE STATUS, THEY SAID THEY ARE STILL WAITING FOR PARTS FROM DODGE. IF THIS RECALL IS SUCH AS SAFETY ISSUE AS TO WARRANT A RECALL, WHY IS DODGE NOT FOLLOWING THROUGH WITH REPAIRS AND ENSURING THERE ARE PARTS NECESSARY FOR REPAIRS? IT HAS BEEN OVER TWO MONTHS SINCE THE DEALER ORDERED PARTS. I DO NOT CONSIDER THIS A 'REASONABLE TIME' ESPECIALLY WHEN MY SAFETY IS AT STAKE. *TR

I GOT THE RECALL WHILE IN OR WHILE BEING A CARETAKER FOR 6 MONTHS. I CALLED ALL THE LOCAL DEALERS AND WAS TOLD THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS AND DID NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WOULD GET THEM. I FINALLY TALKED TO DENNIS DILLION DODGE IN CALDWELL, ID AND THEY ORDERED THE PART. I AM LEAVING TO GO BACK TO ALASKA NEXT MONTH AND THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PART. I REALLY DO NOT WANT TO GO BACK WITHOUT IT BEING FIXED AS I AM PULLING A 5TH WHEEL TRAILER. *TR

RECEIVE NOTIFICATION IN DECEMBER TO CONTACT DEALER FOR RECALL SERVICE WORK AFTER JAN 6 2014. CONTACTED DEALER ON JAN 6TH AND MADE APPOINTMENT FOR FEB 4TH TO HAVE RECALL WORK PERFORMED. WHEN DROPPING VEHICLE OFF I WAS INFORMED PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE AND WERE ONLY GETTING A LIMITED NUMBER OF PARTS PER WEEK. IT IS NOW 3 MONTHS INTO THE RECALL WITH NO RESOLUTION IN SIGHT.

RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL FROM CHRYSLER N49/NHTSA 13V-529, STATING THE LEFT TIE ROD BALL STUD IS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. CONTACTED WOLFCHASE DODGE IN BARTLETT, TN AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T GET THE PARTS, AND COULDN'T FIX MY TRUCK. *TR

I HAD STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN AND THEN STARTED TO PROCEED. SPEED WAS SLOW BECAUSE OF RAIL ROAD TRACK, WHEN I MADE A LEFT TURN THE STEERING JAMMED AND HAD TO STOP BEFORE RUNNING OFF ROAD. WITH ALL MY STRENGTH I WAS ABLE TO TURN LEFT FURTHER BUT HEARD A CLUNK. DROVE SLOW TO A DODGE DEALER IN MILE OF CARS, SAN DIEGO AND THIS CONDITION OCCURRED ABOUT 3 TIMES EVERY TIME I MADE A FULL TURN TO LEFT. DEALER REPAIRED AND I WAS TOLD THAT A AIR VENT HOSE RETAINING BRACKET HAD BROKEN AND THE HOSE HAD FALLEN IN TO THE STEERING MECHANISM. I THINK IF I HAD BEEN GOING AT A NORMAL SPEED 50 TO 70 I WOULD HAVE CRASHED. *TR

WHILE BACKING INTO A PARKING SPACE, THE TIE ROD BROKE CAUSING BOTH FRONT TIRES TO TILT INWARD. I HAPPENED TO BE AT A DEALER'S LOT AND HAD TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AT THIS LOCATION. UPON CONTACTING MY DODGE DEALERSHIP I WAS INFORMED OF THE RECALL AND THEN CONTACTED CHRYSLER WHERE I WAS TOLD - ON THREE SEPARATE CALLS - THIS WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. I'VE SINCE FOUND A PUBLISHED NOTICE BY CHRYSLER, STATING MY EXACT MAKE & MODEL AND THE EXACT TIE ROD BREAKAGE AS BEING PART OF A RECALL. CHRYSLER HAS DENIED REIMBURSEMENT OF MY REPAIR APPROXIMATELY $600 ON A $50,000 TRUCK WITH ONLY 40,000 MILES. AT THE TIME OF THIS INCIDENT MYSELF AND A PASSENGER HAD JUST EXITED OFF A MAJOR INTERSTATE WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 70 MPH AND I WAS TOWING A BOAT. I CAN NO LONGER TRUST DODGE VEHICLES, THEIR CUSTOMER CARE DUE TO THEIR LACK OF SAFE PRODUCTS.

IN JANUARY OF 2014, I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM DODGE/CHRYSLER ON MY 2011 DODGE RAM TRUCK, 2500 4X4. THE NOTICE SAID, PROBLEM: THE LEFT TIE ROD BALL STUD ON YOUR TRUCK MAY FRACTURE UNDER CERTAIN DRIVING CONDITIONS.
