Consumer Description

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 DODGE RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LINKAGE BAR THAT CONNECTS THE SHIFTER TO THE TRANSFER CASE IS APPROXIMATELY 14 INCHES LONG. IT IS HELD TOGETHER BY RUBBER GROMMETS. OVER TIME, A COMBINATION OF EXCESSIVE TEMPERATURES AND WEAR AND TEAR CAUSED THE GROMMETS TO FAIL.

THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 44,200. UPDATE 09/10/08 *CW UPDATED 09/16/08 *JB
