Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD (2)TWO CLOSE CALLS FROM A 2005 DODGE RAM 1500 DUE TO EQUIPMENT FAILURES. (1) THE POWER STEERING PUMP FAILED DURING A SNOWSTORM AND SKIDDED ME OFF THE ROAD. (2) RECENTLY WITH JUST 44,000 MILES ON THE RAM THE WHEELBEARINGS SEIZED AND THE DRIVERSIDE TIRE BLOWOUT SENDING ME AGAIN TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD INTO A SMALL CULVERT. EVEN THOUGH UNDER WARRANTY DODGE IS DELAYING FIXING IT BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THESE EQUIPMENT FAILURES. I'VE NOTICED MANY COMPLAINTS AND EVEN LIMITED RECALLS REGARDING DODGE WHEELBEARINGS BEING DEFECTIVE. IF YOU ARE INVOLVED WITH EITHER OF THESE EQUIPMENT FAILURES YOU'D KNOW HOW CATASTROPHIC IT COULD BE. *TR
