2000 Dodge RAM 2500

They Did Not INCLUDE THE 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 Yet I have had the same experience several times.When travelling at highway speeds and hitting a bump or pot-hole in the road, the front end begins to shake violently and does not stop until the driver jams on the brakes and brings the truck back down to below highway speeds. Some people contribute this phenomenon to the worst possible downside of having a coil-sprung front suspension on a truck with a track bar. Unlike a typical suspension set up, Dodge Ram trucks will continue to shake long after hitting the bump to the point that controlling the vehicle is nearly impossible until the driver slows down. The current lawsuit alleges that Chrysler learned about the death wobble defect with Dodge Ram trucks in the mid-2000s but waited four years before conducting a series of recalls from 2009 through 2013. Chrysler classified the recalls as Safety Recalls, H36, H46, K28, L16, N62, N49, and N63. The recalls addressed various parts of 2009-2012 Dodge Ram trucks’ steering linkage system, including its tie rod assemblies. The complaint alleges that the recalls excluded many affected vehicles and that Chrysler provided replacement parts that were also defective, forcing Chrysler to make additional recalls to remedy prior recalls. Consumers have reported that Chrysler does not have enough replacement parts to repair all the vehicles for which it has submitted recall notices and that drivers have been put on long waiting lists for repairs. Chrysler’s steering linkage defect and redesign. Allegedly, the ball stud is defective in the Chrysler Suspension design. The driver’s side tie-rod ball stud that Chrysler used is too weak to and is known to fracture under normal driving conditions. The tie rod is a “crucial link” in the vehicle’s steering system. A loose tie rod can cause any vehicle to have an excess shimmy or the dreaded death wobble. The tie rod can affect front-end alignment. This happen several times in the last 15 years

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 DODGE RAM 2500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD VEER TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT WITHOUT ANY WARNINGS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 DODGE RAM 2500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 60-70 MPH, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND STEERING BECAME UNCONTROLLABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE FAILURE. THE DEALER REPLACED AN UNKNOWN PART IN THE STEERING WHEEL BUT THE FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT FURTHER REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

THE STEERING ON MY 2000 DODGE RAM 2500 4X4 HAS BEEN SLOPPY/WANDERS FOR ABOUT THE PAST TWO YEARS. FIRST, I REPLACED ALL FOUR TIRES WITH THE SAME STANDARD TIRES. I THEN HAD IT ALIGNED AND THE MECHANIC COULDN'T GET THE STEERING WHEEL STRAIGHT. SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, AND THEY RECOMMENDED AN INDEPENDENT ALIGNMENT SHOP. THERE THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE TRACK BAR AND GOT THE STEERING WHEEL STRAIGHT. THAT SEEMED TO TIGHTEN UP THE STEERING WHEEL A BIT. SEVERAL MONTHS LATER THE WHEEL WAS SLOPPY AGAIN. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER, AND THEY GOT IN AND TEST DROVE IT WITH ME. THEY DID ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE WHEEL WAS "LOOSE" BUT THE DODGES JUST HAD LOOSE STEERING. THEY ALSO SAID THEY COULD TIGHTEN UP THE STEERING GEAR BOX. SO I LET THEM DO THAT. BUT WHEN I WENT TO PICK UP THE TRUCK, THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT I MIGHT HAVE TO REPLACE THE GEAR BOX SOON. BEFORE I DID THAT I WANTED TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM, AND THEY DID. MANY PEOPLE ON THE TURBO DIESEL REGISTER WEB SITE HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS HOW I WAS REFERRED TO THIS WEB SITE. IF SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE STEERING, WHY ISN'T A RECALL ISSUED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *JB
