Consumer Description

I’ve had a complete loss of steering control while driving on highway coming home from work last night. There was no warning it just failed. I was able to manhandle the truck on the highway and limp home. My first thought I had my power steering pump fail but when I couldn’t find a pump on my engine I google search the problem and found out that this is a known issue but my truck was not included in the recall issued back in 2016.. I was completely unaware my 2015 Ram 1500 had this issue until it failed last night on me. I’m afraid to take to the dealer because I’m sure this will be a large repair bill. I wish they would include my vehicle in the recall!!
