2000 DODGE RAM VAN Suspension Problems

THE FRAME HORNS {LEFT AND RIGHT} DEVELOPED CRACKS ON ALL FOUR SIDES AHEAD OF THE FRONT WHEELS LEADING TO THE DETACHMENT OF THE STEERING ARM AND STABILIZER BAR RESULTING IN LITTLE TO NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. WHILE THE DETACHMENT IS NOT FULLY COMPLETE IT ONLY THROUGH THE EXTREMELY WEAKENED CONNECTIONS THAT REMAIN THAT AN ACCIDENT WAS AVOIDED. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO A STOP AS SOON THE LOSS OF CONTROL WAS EXPERIENCED AND HAS BEEN PARKED SINCE. IT IS CANNOT BE OPERATED SAFELY IN THE THIS CONDITION. THE FAILED FRAME IS THE SOURCE OF THE DRIVEABILITY AND SAFETY ISSUES. THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING NORTHBOUND ON A 4 LANE DIVIDED ROAD WHEN THE LOSS OF CONTROL MANIFESTED.

THIS DISCRIPTION IS FOR THE UNDERCARRIGE: THE VAN KEEPS SQUEEKING WHEN YOU GO OVER BUMPS, THE DEALER SAIDS THAT THE RUBBER GOUMENTS BETWEEN THE FRAME AND THE BODY WERE NOT SUPPORTIVE ENOUGH FOR ALL THE WEIGHT OF THE VAN AND THE WEIGHT OF ALL THE PASSENGERS. I'M A SINGLE PARENT WITH KIDS AND I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO REPLACE ALL THE RUBBER GROUMENTS BETWEEN THE FRAME AND THE BODY THAT THE REPAIR SHOP SUGGEST I DO OR I CAN JUST KEEP PAYING THEM TO LUBE THEM. AS FOR THE TRANSMISSION THATS ANOTHER STORY APPARENTLY ALL MY INTERNAL SEALS ARE LEAKING AND IT IS CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION TO SLIP. FOR A BRAND NEW 2000 DODGE VAN THIS IS RIDICULOUS. THEY WANT BETWEEN $3500 AND $5000 TO REPLACE. I'VE E MAILED DODGE CONCERNING THESE PROBLEMS AND OF COURSE NO RESPONSE FROM THEM. LIKE IT GOES IN ONE EAR AND OUT...
