2005 Dodge Magnum, at 40,000 the tie rods went on my car. Kind of strange because out of all things to go on a car, the tie rods aren't usually one of them, especially after 40,000 miles. So I went to the internet to check it out and I found hundreds of complaints about the Magnum tie rods being defective. Why wasn't there a recall on this? I had them replaced with a superior after market tie rod. I didn't want to use oem for the fear of this happening again after 40,000 miles. It's a known fact that the tie rods on these car, and the front suspension in general, are defective. Yet Chrysler did not do a recall. This is unacceptable. What can I do?.

Tie rod ends replaced at 45,000 miles. Dealer claims this is normal.

My husband was having the new 2006 Dodge Magnum for maintenance and the mechanic told him that his passenger's side tie rod was loose and needed to be replaced. Now, this was very strange, especially since its was a 2006. Model. When we inquired at the Dodge dealer about this mishap they said that there was no recall on this particular problem yet, but they had complaints, people were bringing their cars in for this same problem. The unfortunate thing was that people were going elsewhere to have it fixed because it was too costly to have it done at the dealer. The dealer wanted to charge for the whole rack and pinion instead of just the tie rod that wa sloose. It just so happened that my husband's friend had the same vehicle and he too just paid an arm and leg to hav the tie rod fixed, and his too wa s a 2006. Now, I did not know how many more people out there have been having the same problem, but it was too coincidental. When I went out researching to see how much this was going to cost, every mechanic I spoke with asked the same thing, and it was only a 2006?" I am still shopping around to see who will fix this problem for me, but I thought it was important for you to know. Hopefully others will complain as I did, and we could have this problem reimbursed or fixed. Thank you for your time.

Purchased a previously owned 2005 Dodge Magnum from local dealership 45 days ago I experienced very serious pulling to the right. The dealership has indicated it had the vehicle aligned and two (2) new front tires installed before purchase. They have had me (they paid) take it in for three (3) more alignments with the last time the technicians needed to replace bent tie rods before the alignment could even be completed. It continues to have a very serious pull to the right, with no resolution in sight. The alignment shop has indicated it is using the latest Dodge bulletins pertaining to the alignment issue (2 previous version also exist). Feathering of the 'new' front tires is already apparent and I know it will only get worst; whether it is the unnecessary replacement of tires or an incident caused by this excessive uneven wearing of tire tread. The dealership is now non-responsive and has refused to do anything more. They have declared it as 'normal' for this vehicle and it is due to a manufacturer design problem. I have a new born baby that I am scarred to strap her into this death trap. It is the only vehicle that my wife and I own and are afraid to even drive it. It is an accident waiting to happen.

In an open asphalt parking lot with no dividers or potholes or any surface material other than painted line, while driving about ~ 15 miles/hour I proceeded to make a left turn. I turned the wheels hard to the left when I felt like my vehicle hit something and the air bag deployed. Upon coming to my senses and outside inspection of the vehicle, the left front wheel assembly came off the structural members which hold it to the axle/frame. Two of the members had broken. The wheel itself was "laid out" in a ~ 30 degree angle with the ground and was shoved up against the firewall. This vehicle is a Dodge Magnum awd rt model with hemi engine.
