Consumer Description

THIS IS THE 4TH TIME WE HAVE HAD TO GO BACK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEM TURN US AWAY BY DOING A VISUAL INSPECTION STATING THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE TRUCK, HOWEVER WE CANNOT GET AN ALIGNMENT BECAUSE SWAY BAR, TRACK BAR, AND TIE RODS ALL NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. TOOK TRUCK BACK AGAIN AFTER THERE WAS SO MUCH POOPING NOISE AND VIBRATION FROM THE FRONT END THAT I COULD NOT TAKE IT ANYMORE. OUTER TIE RODS WERE DONE, AND FOUND OUT THE TRACK BAR WAS CRACKED SO A NEW ONE REPLACED THE ORIGINAL ONE YET NO RECORD WAS COMPLETED OF THIS WITH THE DEALERSHIP, ONLY THAT THEY TIGHTENED THE TRACK BAR. I AM SO FED UP WITH THE DEALERSHIPS AND CHRYSLER WITH ALL OF THIS NONESENSE, IT IS REALLY GOING TO COME DOWN TO US COMPLETELY HAVING A BAD ACCIDENT OR SOMETHING TO THIS EXTENT BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE, AND WE STOP HAVING TO PAY FOR ALL THE REPAIRS TO A FAULTY FRONT END. DRIVING DOWN THE ROD FEELING THE VIBRATIONS IS VERY SCARY, AND NOT KNOWING IF THE TIRES ARE GOING TO COME OFF.
