TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE RAM 3500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO JERK FROM SIDE TO SIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED.

I RECEIVED RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE FOR AIR BAG AND STEERING LINKAGE REPLACEMENT. WHEN I CONTACTED THE DEALER TO SET UP THE APPOINTMENT FOR THE RECALL FIXES. I WAS TOLD THEY DID NOT HAVE BOTH PARTS SO THE APPOINTMENT WAS SET FOR ABOUT 4-5 WEEKS LATER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP THE AIR BAG RECALL WAS FIXED BUT THEY REFUSED TO FIX THE RECALL ON THE STEERING LINKAGE. THEY STATED MY TRUCK HAD THE "OLD DODGE PART" SO THAT WAS NOT COVERED. THIS PART IF FAILS WILL CAUSE ME TO HAVE NO STEERING CONTROL. I HAD A CHRYSLER CERTIFIED MECHANIC LOOK AT THE STEERING PART ON MY TRUCK AND HE STATED IT WAS SO BAD HE WOULD BE SCARED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. SO EVEN THOUGH THE STEERING PART IS BAD TO THE POINT OF BEING DANGEROUS DODGE IS CLAIMING THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. WHY WOULD I RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE?

PURCHASED VAN FROM DEALER. WHILE DRIVING THE NEXT DAY, FRONT BRAKES STARTED TO SQUEAL RATHER LOUDLY. THIS CONTINUED AND GOT LOUDER....THE VAN SOUNDED LIKE A SCHOOL BUS. I TOOK THE VAN OVER TO THE DEALER BECAUSE NOW THERE WAS A LOT OF BRAKE DUST ON THE FRONT TIRE RIMS. I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM AND I COULDN'T BE HELPED WITH THE ISSUE. MY BRAKES ARE WEARING DOWN QUICKLY AND SQUEAL LOUDLY. THERE IS SO MUCH BRAKE DUST THAT MY RIMS LOOK BLACK IF NOT WASHED. I FEEL THAT DODGE/CRYSLER SHOULD REPLACE MY BRAKE PADS FREE OF CHARGE AND CHECK MY ROTORS FOR WEAR AND REPLACE IF NECESSARY ALSO FREE OF CHARGE SINCE THIS IS A STANDING ISSUE. IF MY BRAKES FAIL, THIS MAY CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. ALSO, IT IS RATHER EMBARRASSING TO DRIVE A NEW VAN THAT DODGE IS TRYING TO PROMOTE AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS.

I HAD RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE N62/ NHTSA 13V-528. I CALLED DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE VEHICLE CHECKED. THE DEALER STATED THAT I WAS ON A WAITING LIST FOR THE PART.

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE DRIVING DOWN SOUTH PADRE ISLAND DRIVE AND THE TRUCK STARTED SHAKING FROM THE FRONT END. MY HUSBAND LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND COULD NOT CONTROL NOR STOP THE SHAKING OF THE TRUCK. HE HAD TO SLOW DOWN AND STEER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WE HIT A SMALL POLE AND THE REAR BED WAS HIT. MY ARMS AND LEGS WERE PRETTY BANGED UP AND BRUISED, SO I SOUGHT MEDICAL ATTENTION. EVERY SINCE THE INCIDENT HAPPENED, OUR TRUCK HAS NOT BEEN MOVED BECAUSE IT WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION DUE TO THE STEERING AND LOSING CONTROL PROBLEM. THE TRUCK SHAKES REAL BAD AND FEELS LIKE IT IS FALLING APART WHEN THIS PROBLEM OCCURS. SO THEREFORE, IT CAN NOT BE DRIVEN BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. WE TOOK IT IN TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AFTER IT HAPPENED AND THEY DENIED HELPING US AND TEST DRIVING IT TO SEE FOR THEMSELVES THAT THE TRUCK DOES START TO SHAKE AND LOSE CONTROL WHILE BEING DRIVEN. SO EVERY SINCE THIS INCIDENT, OUR TRUCK HAS BEEN PARKED AND MY HUSBAND TOOK IT IN TO MAKE SOME PREVIOUS REPAIRS AND THOSE REPAIRS WERE AND HAVE BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL BECAUSE THE TRUCK STILL DOES THE SAME THING WHILE EITHER I AM DRIVING IT OR MY HUSBAND IS DRIVING IT OR ANYBODY ELSE IS DRIVING IT.

LOADED AT 18000 LBS GVW WHILE TOWING A TANDEM AXLE TRAILER THE VEHICLE DIED. UPON LOSING ALL ELECTRICAL POWER THE ENGINE DIED CAUSING THE LOSS OF POWER ASSISTED BRAKES AND POWER ASSISTED STEERING. FORTUNATELY THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE WAS AROUND 5 MPH. I'M 6 FOOT TALL AND OVER 200 LBS AND I WAS UNABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE PARKING AREA. UPON LEAVING THE VEHICLE I IMMEDIATELY SMELLED ELECTRONICS BURNING. I OPENED THE HOOD AND IMMEDIATELY DISCONNECTED THE POSITIVE POST OF THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM). I THEN REMOVED THE TIPM TO FIND A HOLE BURNT THROUGH THE SIDE AND THE CIRCUIT BOARD COVERED WITH BLACK SOOT. I HAD THE VEHICLE AND TRAILER TOWED TO CORBIN KY WHERE THERE WERE NO DODGE DEALERS WILLING TO WORK ON A VEHICLE OF THIS SIZE. NOR WOULD THEY STORE THE TRAILER FOR ME WHILE CONDUCTING THE REPAIR. I CHOOSE TO HAVE THE VEHICLE AND TRAILER TOWED OVER 600 MILES TO MY HOME IN MICHIGAN. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER WHOM TOOK THE VIN NUMBER TO ORDER AN NEW ONE. AFTER OVER 2 WEEKS WAITING ON THE TIPM (WHICH TURNED OUT TO BE REMANUFACTURED) THE TRUCK IS STILL NOT OPERABLE. IF I HAD BEEN TRAVELING AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS WITH A LOADED VEHICLE I LIKELY WOULD NOT HAVE SURVIVED THIS INCIDENT. PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING I HAD MANY ISSUES WITH THE LIGHTING ON THE TRUCK. THE LOW BEAM ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WOULD BE INOPERABLE WHILE THE DRIVERS HIGH BEAM IS THE ONLY ONE THAT WOULD WORK. ALSO, THE TAILLIGHTS WOULD STOP WORKING ON ONE SIDE AND THE TURN SIGNALS WOULD FLASH Q

DURING TRAVEL ON INTERSTATE 40 AT EXIT 56, DRIVERS SIDE FRONT TIRE SEPARATED CAUSING DAMAGE TO INNER FENDER, WINDSHIELD WASHER ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS, AND FENDER AND NEARLY CAUSING CATASTROPHIC LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND LOSS OF LIFE OF AN ENTIRE FAMILY. ALL TIRES WERE AT THE PROPER INFLATION AND TEMPERATURE RANGE AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. WITH ONLY 20,000 MILES ON THE TIRE, THIS SEEMS TO BE MANUFACTURED DEFECT FROM THE GENERAL TIRE COMPANY. I NO LONGER CONSIDER GENERAL TIRES TO BE A RELIABLE PRODUCT AND WILL RESEARCH AND SEEK REPLACEMENTS FROM OTHER REPUTABLE TIRE COMPANIES. I DO RECOMMEND PRODUCT RECALL OF THE AMERITRAC LT235/80R17 TIRE LINE AS WELL AS PRODUCT SAFETY COMPLIANCE INSPECTIONS OF THE GENERAL TIRE COMPANY. *TR

THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN MAINTAINED ACCORDING TO THE MANUAL PERFECTLY AND IN MOST CASES MAINTENANCE DONE BEFORE REQUIRED. ON THE DATE ABOVE I WAS DRIVING HOME AND THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. SINCE I WAS 2 HOURS FROM HOME I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALER. THEIR REPAIR ORDER INDICATES THAT ALL 6 INJECTORS, THE DPF, CRANKCASE BREATHER FILTER, THERMOSTAT, OX SENSOR AND 2 TEMP SENSORS MUST BE REPLACED. IN ADDITION, THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE CLEANED OUT INCLUDING ALL FILTERS, AIR AND FUEL AND OIL CHANGED AND FILTER. THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT ALL THIS WORK WILL COST ME $7500. THIS TRUCK HAS TOO LITTLE MILEAGE TO NEED ALL THIS WORK. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE LAST TRUCK I WOULD OWN FIGURING THE CUMMINS ENGINE'S REPUTATION. INTERESTED IN WHETHER THIS TRUCK IS AN ABERRATION OR IS IT SIMILAR TO TRUCKS WITH THE FIRST CLEAN BURNING ENGINE? *TR
