Consumer Description

DODGE RAM 2500 HAD A SAFETY RECALL H46-MOPAR STEERING LINKAGE. I WANT TO ALSO REPORT THAT THE STEERING GEAR ITSELF IS ALSO FAULTY. I TOOK MY TRUCK TO A SMALL REPAIR SHOP IN CONIFER, CO THAT HAS SINCE AUGUST 09 REPLACED THIS GEAR ON 6 TRUCKS. OUR STEERING WENT OUT CATASTROPHICALLY GOING OVER A MOUNTAIN PASS, ALMOST CAUSING OUR DEATHS. CHRYSLER IS NOT COVERING OUR STEERING GEAR REPLACEMENT BECAUSE THE RECALL ONLY COVERS THE LINKAGE. ACCORDING TO THE SHOP OWNER, HE IS AWARE OF THE H46 RECALL. I WANT TO MAKE SURE TO REGISTER A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE ACTUAL STEERING GEAR. *TR
