Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2001 DODGE RAM 2500 P/U QUAD CAB THAT CAUGHT ON FIRE AFTER I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF. THERE WAS A SAFETY RECALL IN 2002, BUT I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. CHRYSLER SENT OUT AN INSPECTOR AND THEY DENIED THE CLAIM. I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT SAFETY RECALLS HAD TO BE LISTED ON REGISTRATION SO AS TO BE DONE BEFORE YOU CAN RE-REGISTER. I RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THAT THEY DENIED THE CLAIM BUT NOT TOLD THE FACTS OF THE INVESTIGATION OR WHY IT WAS DENIED. THE RECALL STATED THAT THIS COULD CAUSE A FIRE. *AK
