Steering went out causing me to lose control and run into sign. Paid $60000 for this truck and I have had to put 30K back into it for reasons I had no control of> than chrystler offered me 22000 for the truck which is 4000 below what is owed on truck biggest mistake I made was buying a Dodge very unprofessional how they are handlinfg these buyback trucks selling U garbage is one thing than trying to take advantage on the buys backs on recalled trucks is uncalled for
I noticed for 6-8 mos steering issue to the left, called dealer said nothing wrong. At various times a strange clunking clicking left front wheel area as decelerating and turning left weight to the front. Now choppy tire left front as there are no ball joints it appears tie rod is bad or something. While pulling into a turn the other day August 17,2015 the veh pulled heard the clank again and the steering pull caused us to strike fixed object. Dealer says not affected by recall, but we have all the same issues, and noted for awhile steering at intermittent times problems... what can I do very afraid to drive as we drive interstate often with loads, we need the vehicle but it seems to have the same issue as recall even though our VIN shows different plant, but what do we do just be killed first? help please.
