1999 Dodge RAM 1500

I HAVE HAD 4 SETS OF FRONT BRAKES AND 3 SETS OF REAR BRAKES ON THIS TRUCK. I HAVE REPLACE THE CALIPERS AND ROTORS TWICE. TRUCK ONLY HAS 64K MILES ON IT AND NOW IT PULLS TO THE LEFT AND THE ABS LIGHTS ARE NOW ON. ON ONE OCCASION THE TRUCK PULLED SO HARD TO THE LEFT I WOUND UP IN THE OTHER LANE FORCING THE PERSON IN THAT LANE TO MOVE TO THE SHOULDER OF THE FREEWAY. I THEN TOOK IT UP TO DODGE AND ONCE AGAIN THEY SAID THE CALIPERS WERE STICKING AND RECOMMENDED REPLACING THEM. I HAD AND EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE TRUCK THAT WAS SOLD TO ME BY DODGE, AND THEY REFUSED TO PAY FOR IT BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES. I TRULY SHOULD HAVE PURSUED THE LEMON LAW WITH THIS 99 RAM. DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM WITH THESE BRAKES ARE? *NM

I OWN A 1999 DODGE RAM EXTENDED CAB 1500 PICK UP TRUCK. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING AND WHEN SHE STOPPED THE TRUCK AND PLACED IN PARK THE TRUCK CONTINUED TO MOVE AND WE ALMOST RAN INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF US. AFTER INVESTIGATION IT WAS NOTED THAT THE LEVER ON THE STEARING COLUMN USED TO CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION POSITION WAS NOT FUNCTINING. THERE WAS NO WAY TO PLACE THE TRANSMISSION IN THE "PARK" POSITION AND THERE WAS NO WAY TO DETERMINE WHICH POSITION THE TRANSMISSION WAS IN. THERE IS A HINGE SYSTEM THAT CONNECTS THE STEARING COLUMN TO THE TRANSMISSION AND THIS HINGE POINT IS BOLTED TO THE FRAME OF THE TRUCK. THE BOLTS APPEAR TO BE ABOUT 1/4" SIZE. WELL, BOTH OF THE BOLTS WERE SHEARED OFF AND THE HINGE POINT WAS JUST HANGING OFF THE FRAME. THIS LEFT THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION OPERATING ASSEMBLY USELESS. WE ARE VERY CONSERVATIVE DRIVERS AND DON'T PUSH THE VEHICLE AND WE FEEL THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. WE BASICALLY STOPPED, PLACED THE TRANSMISSION IN "PARK" AND THE TRUCK KEPT MOVING TOWARD ON-COMING TRAFFIC UNTIL WE HIT THE BRAKES AGAIN. WHAT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT IS THE PERSON THAT'S NOT SOO LUCKY AND PUTS THE TRUCK IN PARK AND WALKS AWAY THEN THE TRUCK STARTS MOVING. IN OUR CASE, WE WERE PARKING SLIGHTLY DOWN HILL AND WE NOTICED THE MOVEMENT RIGHT AWAY. *AK

1. ABS LIGHT KEPT COMING ON AND BRAKES KEPT GOING TO THE FLOOR. 2. TRIED TO CAREFULLY GET IT TO A SAFE LOCATION OFF THE HIGHWAY AND BRAKES EVENTUALLY FAILED ON ME CAUSING ME TO DRIVE OFF THE ROAD AND MY BACK QUARTER PANEL SCRAPPED A TELEPHONE POLE. *JB 3. DEALER CLAIMS NOTHING FAULTY FROM THEIR SIDE, BUT HAD TO CHANGE THE MASTER CYLINDER, BRAKE BOOSTER AND FLUSH BRAKE FLUID. WAS TOLD FLUID WAS VERY DIRTY AND BLACK LIKE THE COLOR OF EXHAUST CHANGING THE COLOR OF THE FLUID. IT WAS TOLD I HAD CONTAMINATED FLUID, BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS IS POSSIBLE. THE OLD PARTS WERE APPARENTLY THROWN AWAY BY THE DEALERS A FEW DAYS AGO. I NOTICED OTHERS ON THE INTERNET COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEMS WHERE THE DEALER CLAIMED A PARTICULAR PROBLEM AND SIMPLY CHANGED ALL OF THE BRAKE PARTS. THIS IS VERY FISHY. COST WAS $1,150, BUT THE SALESMAN NICELY DISCOUNTED THE PRICE TO $852 WHEN I TOLD HIM I DRIVE LIKE A GRANDPA AND DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS HAPPENED.
