general problems of the 2012 Dodge Ram 1500

**subject: urgent vehicle safety concern — steering failure, track bar bracket/frame damage, and risk to family safety — 2012 ram 2500** to ram customer care and the vehicle safety team, I am requesting immediate attention to a serious safety concern involving my 2012 ram 2500 4×4 with the 6. 7l cummins diesel engine. This is not simply a complaint about suspension performance or the cost of repairing an older truck. My concern is the history of steering and suspension failures that could put the driver, passengers, children, and other road users at risk. The factory drag link broke in half while I was driving down a steep hill. That was a frightening and dangerous experience. The truck also had problems while it was still at stock suspension height. I believed the stock suspension was responsible, which is why I later installed an aftermarket lift. The lift was an attempt to address the problem, not the beginning of the problem, based on my experience. The truck now experiences severe wobbling under braking, and the front track bar bracket appears to be pulling away from or tearing out of the frame. I am concerned about the integrity of the steering and front suspension mounting points and the possibility of losing control of the vehicle. * family’s safety is a major concern. Children ride in this truck. ** I cannot treat a possible steering or structural failure as an ordinary maintenance issue when the consequences of a failure could be catastrophic. I am aware of fca safety recall r46 / NHTSA campaign 15v-541, which addressed track bar frame bracket welding concerns on certain ram trucks. I understand that my 2012 model year may not be included in the recall population. Nevertheless, I am asking ram to examine the actual condition of my vehicle and determine whether the failures warrant further technical investigation. I respectfully request: 1. A formal safety case and a case reference number. 2. Escalation to the appropriate ram technical, engineerin.

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.

The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Ram 1500. The contact stated that the passenger's side of the vehicle was two inches lower than the driver's side of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostics; however the cause of failure was not determined. The failure was reported to the manufacturer, who stated the vehicle was within specifications. The failure mileage was 4,000. The current mileage was 6,000.

I purchase a 2012 Dodge Ram 1500. I have been noticing a problem with a vibration and a rubbing sound when the vehicle is under 40 mph. I have taken back to the dealer 2 or 3 times and they first said the tire on the passenger side was cuping and separating and was not covered under warranty. I took the vehicle to a goodyear dealer (the tires are goodyear). They didn't find any problem with the tires and rotate the tires. All four tires are worn in middle tread. So, I know something is not right. I took the vehicle back. The service manager said that they couldn't find anything wrong with the truck. He did say that because it had a hemi th that's what some of the trucks did and that there was one complain with the same problem and that person traded the truck in. Now I know that that is not true about the hemi's. . . I don't feel safe in these vehicle and the store manager will not return my calls. I have paid a lot for this truck and don't feel like im receiving the proper customer care. I don't feel comfortable driving this vehicle but it's my only transportation to and from work. I had to call the Dodge customer sevice dept to have them call and talk to them for them to make another appointment to check the truck again because they would not return my calls.
