Dodge incorrectly or falsely advertised and informed prospective purchasers of the Dakota R/T that the towing capacity was 6400#. over one year after purchase, they sent a simple form letter stating that the safe capacity was actually 2000#. in spite of this, their website and product information still indicates the capacity to be either 6400# or over 8000# depending on the source. While continuing to deceive new customers, they also are stonewalling current owners who are attempting to individually deal with Dodge regarding corrective action, buybacks, etc. I am aware of at least one reported accident in New Mexico attributable to the incorrect critical information not being disclosed to owners and dealt with by daimler Chrysler Corp.
