Consumer Description

TRUCK DIES WHILE DRIVING AND MAKES IT EXTREMELY HARD TO STEER ! SEEMS TO BE SOME SORT OF FUEL PROBLEM ! THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND I DON'T TRUST IT TO ATTEMPT TO DRIVE IN TRAFFIC TO A DEALER FOR REPAIRS ! THE TRUCK CURRENTLY HAS APPROX. 87,000 ORIGINAL MILES ON IT ! PROBLEM SEEM TO START SHORTLY AFTER LAST DEALER VISIT IN 2008 FOR REPLACEMENT OF A/C DUCTING UNDER DASH ! DEALER SHUT DOWN RIGHT AFTER OUR PRESIDENT TOOK OFFICE, AS DID MANY OF THE LOCAL DODGE DEALERS ! TO ME, IT ACTS AS IF THE FUEL JUST SHUTS OFF. HARD TO RESTART OR STEER - DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD ! WHILE SURFING THE INTERNET FOR LIKE COMPLAINTS, MOST ALL COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME NATURE, SAY THAT DODGE IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND WILL DO NOTHING ! I'M A 100 % SERVICE CONNECTED DOUBLE AMPUTEE, AND NEED THIS VEHICLE FOR TRANSPORTATION AND TRAVEL TO THE VA HOSPITAL 45 MILES AWAY FROM WHERE I LIVE ! I CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER VEHICLE AT THIS TIME.
