Consumer Description

RIGHT OUTER TIE ROD END FELL APART CAUSING LOSS OF STEERING. VEHICLE PULLED HARD LEFT HOWEVER I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY STOP WITHOUT HITTING ANYTHING. THE TRUCK DID NOT SHOW ANY EARLY WARNINGS AND HAD REGULAR PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE. I DID KEEP THE FAILED PART AND THAT OF MY FATHERS, WHICH FAILED ABOUT 5 WEEKS AFTER MINE. THAT MAKES A 100% FAILURE RATE OF THE SAME PART ON OUR TWO TRUCKS WHICH IS VERY DISTURBING! AS SOON AS WE ARE ABLE WE ARE GOING TO REPLACE ALL FACTORY TIE ROD ENDS ON THESE TRUCKS. OUR DODGE DEALER HAD INSPECTED THE LEFT SIDE OF THIS TRUCK IN JULY AND SAID IT WAS SAFE. *TR
