Consumer Description
2013 Ram 1500 four wheel drive,crew cab .Basically my steering locked up on me while driving,I turned right on to my mothers road and as I completed the turn it wouldn’t let me turn the wheel after that.i had it towed to a garage thats well known nationally and they diagnosed the electronic power steering needs to be replaced,I’m grateful that I wasn’t going at a high speed in traffic on a highway when it failed.Ive been told from my local Dodge Ram dealership ship that my truck has no open recalls on it,I’m currently in the process of purchasing a refurbished rack and pinion due to the fact that the manufacturer has discontinued the part, they are extremely expensive and most don’t come with a warranty
