Consumer Description

My 2013 ram 1500 head total power steering failure. Thank God I just started my vehicle and started driving when it went. I was supposed to be on a highway at that time. If I was doing a fair rate of speed I could've crashed. this is a continuing problem with Rams. I have found out online and should be a recall With and the only parts you can get for this are manufactured because nobody has any because Ram stopped making them last year and they are in demand because of this continuous problem. The repairs are very expensive. I have not had a truck for over three weeks and the part won't be in for till the end of September the cost was well over $1500.00 without somebody even putting it in, I think you should look into it because it is a safety situation that keeps happening with gone any for and I've seen there have been lots of complaints. Thank you for your time. I do have a copy of the invoice, but was unable to scan it. I can email it to you upon request.
