Consumer Description
PURCHASED FROM DODGE NEW 06/2015, ALL STOCK NO MODIFICATIONS. STARTED NOTICING SHAKING, DRIFTING WHILE AT HWY SPEEDS ABOVE APPROX. 55MPH AT APPROX. 20,000 ODOMETER MILES. HAD TIRES ROTATED EVERY 10000 BUT STARTED NOTICING WEAR & CUPPING ON OUTSIDE EDGES. I WAS GOING TO HAVE ITS FIRST ALIGNMENT DONE TODAY BECAUSE OF THE TIRE WEAR WHICH IS NOW SEMI EXTREME AT 40000 ODOMETER MILES. LOOKED UNDER TRUCK JUST TODAY 08/29/2016 FOR ANYTHING LOOSE & FOUND CENTER DRAG LINK & BOTH NUTS ON DRAG LINK WERE LOOSE AND SPINNING FREELY. THERE WERE BLUE LINES ON NUTS AND ADJUSTMENT ROD. I FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS A WELL KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE ON RAM TRUCKS FOR YEARS. I THINK THERE'S MORE WRONG THAN JUST THIS ITEM THOUGH. MY WIFE & GRANDSON RIDE ME WITH ME CONSTANTLY AND TO THINK THEY COULD'VE BEEN HURT ANGERS ME BADLY. THIS TRUCK WILL BE SOLD ASAP AND I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER RAM BECAUSE I SEE THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT SAFETY!
