When driving today my fuel tank fell down because the strap pulled out of the frame. There is a recall for this on2012 ram pickups but not my VIN number. Was wondering if my truck could be included in this recall.
When moving vehicle after fueling, truck was stopped, put in park and driver opened the door to exit the vehicle. The truck unexpectedly began moving backward and the driver was knocked to the ground by the door. The door caught the door on the fuel pump guard post, bending the door back beyond 90 degrees and bending the hinge, and causing irreparable damage to the door and fender, and also caused damage to a car fueling at the pump when it struck it. The door does not open or close properly.
My wife was in a wreck yesterday she hit a truck in the rear end and airbags did not deploy causing her facial injuries also a later surgery.
Iwas driving my sons 2012 Ram 1500 4x4 crew cab with less than 20k on the odometer back from texas to north carolina. I fell asleep at the wheel and we ran into a portable tow behind highway construction sign, bounced off a guard rail and then rolled several times down the freeway embankment on I-20 in tuscaloosa alabama. Not one of the 6 airbags in the vehicle deployed. Luckily my son and his two daughters escaped practically injury free, with only minor abrasions, however I took a beating to the head and am still out of work 1 month later due to head/concussion injury. None of the side curtain airbags, side impact or frontal impact airbags deployed. I do have pictures of the truck, which was totaled, to validate this. I also have a copy of the police report stating none of the airbags deployed. What should I do?and who else should I contact?.
The truck was parked the night before at approximately 7:15pm and at approximately 2:30am my wife woke to something popping outside and her 2012 ram was outside on fire. It caught my 2005 Dodge ram 3500 on fire also, and eventually burnt our home down.
