Consumer Description

WHILE EXITING A HIGHWAY OFF RAMP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (60-65MPH) TRUCK DIED WITH NO WARNING OR ALARMS IN A CURVE. I LOST ALL POWER STEERING AND MOST BRAKING. AS I APPROACHED NEAR EDGE OF EMBANKMENT WITH NO STEERING OR RAPID BRAKING, I WAS ABLE TO REFIRE MOTOR FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS WHICH GAVE ME POWER STEERING BACK AND I WAS ABLE TO AVERT GOING OFF OF A STEEP EMBANKMENT, AND AVOIDED ACCIDENT. AFTER TOWING TO LOCAL DEALERSHIP IT WAS DETERMINED THAT MY FUEL LIFT PUMP HAD FAILED. DODGE HAS BEEN AWARE OF THESE PROBLEMS FOR SOMETIME WITH THESE TRUCKS. REPAIR WAS OVER 700 DOLLARS. TRUCK HAD AROUND 54K MILES. *TR
