2012 Dodge Ram 3500 complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE RAM 3500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REVERSING, THE PASSENGER'S SIDE TIE ROD FAILED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE TIE ROD FAILED ON ANOTHER OCCASION AND THAT THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO REPLACED THE STEERING SHAFT AND GEAR BOX. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE CASTOR HAD FAILED WHICH CAUSED HIS TIRES TO WEAR PREMATURELY. THE CONTACT THEN STATED THAT THERE WAS A SMALL GAP BETWEEN THE WINDSHIELD AND THE FRAME AND THE DIFFERENTIAL WAS LEAKING. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,000.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE AND CONTACTED THE DEALER FOR SERVICE. WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR MORE THAN 30 WEEKS BECAUSE OF A RESTRICTION ON AVAILABILITY OF PARTS. CALLED BACK TWO MONTHS LATER TO FIND OUT UPDATES IF ANY AND WAS TOLD THAT I MUST NOW BRING IN THE VEHICLE FOR AN INSPECTION TO FIND OUT IF MY TRUCK NEEDS A PART REPLACEMENT OR NOT. TOOK IN AND THEY SAID YES IT DID NEED IT BUT THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND WON'T BE FOR QUITE A LONG TIME. AM NOW WAITING FOR A CALL FROM THE DEALER AS TO PARTS AVAILABILITY AND SCHEDULING. I FIND IT RIDICULOUS THAT THERE IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE BEING IGNORED AND NOT FIXED IMMEDIATELY BY THE MANUFACTURER, I USE THIS TRUCK TO HAUL HEAVY LOADS LONG DISTANCES AND COUNT ON IT FOR MY INCOME. I AM UPSET THAT THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AND THAT I COULD BE IN DANGER OF A SERIOUS CRASH IF THEY FAIL. *TR

RE: SAFETY RECALL N49 / NHTSA / 13V - 529 ON MAR 12, 2014 I RECEIVED THIS RECALL NOTICE. I'M CURRENTLY WINTERING IN YUMA, AZ AND ABOUT TO RETURN TO ALBERTA ON MARCH 28. THE FISHER DODGE, YUMA CONFIRMED THE RECALL IS NECESSARY HOWEVER THEY HAVE 200 VEHICLES ON BACKLOG AND THEY RECEIVE ABOUT ONE REPLACEMENT PART PER WEEK. I THEN PHONED MY HOME DEALER (COCHRANE DODGE) AND THEY HAVE 6 PAGES OF BACKLOG AND ONLY RECEIVE A REPLACEMENT PART EVERY COUPLE OF WEEKS. I AM PULLING A 10,000 PLUS POUND FIFTH WHEEL TRAILER AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS FOR ABOUT 2500 KMS. NEEDLESS TO SAY, MY WIFE AND I ARE VERY CONCERNED. THE YOUR SAFETY RECALL LETTER STATES "IF YOUR DEALER FAILS TO REMEDY THIS DEFECT...WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME, YOU MAY SUBMIT A WRITTEN COMPLAINT". I THINK SEVERAL MONTHS (IF NOT YEARS) IS TOO LONG TO WAIT FOR THIS STEERING COMPONENT RECALL REPAIR. *TR
