NHTSA Complaint #10287073 — 2006 DODGE RAM 1500

ON 2-12-2007 NHTSA ISSUE A RECALL ON 2006 DODGE 1500,FOR THE FRONT HUB SUSPENSION:WHEEL BEARING.I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL FROM THE DODGE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED MY TRUCK. SO I WAS UNAWARE OF THE RECALL. IN JULY OF 2009 I WAS RETURNING FROM VACATION AND I WAS IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND I STARTED HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY TRUCK SO I FOUND A MECHANIC SHOP, THEY TOLD THAT THE FRONT HUBS WERE MESSED UP AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, IT WAS LATE IN THE AFTERNOON AND THE MECHANIC WAS ONLY ABLE TO FIND ONE HUB SO HE REPLACED THE WORST ONE OF THE TWO AND TOLD ME THAT THE OTHER ONE WOULD GET ME HOME. ONCE I GOT HOME I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY DODGE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE OTHER SIDE AND ALSO ADVISED ME THAT THE REAREND WAS OUT OF THE TRUCK AND THEY REPAIRED THAT. ABOUT TWO WEEKS LATER I FIND OUT THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE FRONT HUB SO I CALL THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY TRUCK WAS NOT ONE OF THE VEHICLE UNDER THE RECALL. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW MY TRUCK WAS NOT UNDER THE RECALL WHEN THE SAME THING WENT WRONG WITH MY TRUCK THE IS LISTED ON THE RECALL. I DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE TO GO WITH THIS SO PLEASE ADVISE ME WITH WHAT DIRECTION TO TAKE THIS IS NOT THE FIRST PROBLEM I HAVE HAD WITH DODGE. I WANT TO THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR ASSISTANT. *TR
