Recall for tierod left side and unable to get the parts as of oct 2013 and up until now no parts available and still driving with dangerous tierod and no parts for the replacement. Need help we are not getting help from the us government at all so someone is going to die before you all step in and it is to late.

I have had my recall notice for months now and Dodge is not even supping enough parts for us to get our trucks fixed. This recall may be one that gets someone killed if they donot take care of it soon and not a year or two later. Are you all aware that they are not getting the parts to us for this important repair. What can you all do about it and are you doing anything to stay up with this and telling them about it to?.

My husband and I totaled our 2010 Dodge Ram 3500 less than 24 hrs after pick up the truck from the lythia Dodge which they had for 5 days straight prior to the accident. For the steering,check engine light and the brakes. In 18mos my truck was in the shop 6 times, for repairs {unacceptable}. We were driving on a arterial st at about 35, when I heard a snap. We suddenly went into oncoming traffic where we sideswiped a sm SUV. Went thru two fences and crashed into a huge shop traveling about 210 yards. My husband was cited for neg 2. He stated he came to in the shop, the officer reported he feel asleep. My vehicle was a total loss. The auto source from the ins. For the payoff , had a list of recalls for my vehicle one of them was for the tie-rod. We recalled seeing the trucks tie-rod had been broken at the scene. So I tried to get my ins to investigate. They said his ticket was what they had to use for deciding fault . So I contacted Chrysler they wouldn't talk to me they gave me a care no and said an investigator would come in 5 days, he came and got all the picts they wanted downloaded the brain history ,everything they could want. Then told me he could only give this info to Chrysler, denying me any of it. Later Chrysler informed me by letter that the tie-rod failure age was from the accident not the cause of it. I ask if the would consider the work orders that lythia had gave me {that clearly states they were beyond specification, never warning me of the dangers} and the picts. I took. I couldn't afford to fax them and they refused me an email address to send them. That evidence was not considered. They have not settled this with me only refused their liability. The airbags never deployed, and brakes were not applied. I got 3 notices for recall n49, 1 yr after the accident. Multiple recalls at that time, do a recall search by now VIN now and nothing comes up.

There was a horrible death wobble in the front end. The truck had to be brought almost to a complete stop in order to remedy this event. This is beyond unsafe. It is not only unsafe for my family it is a danger to others on the road. Buying a $50,000 + truck safety for my family was not a concern, I was highly mistaken. My fear is not only for my family but for the other motorist on the road. We had stopped driving the truck unless there is a major need, yet we continue to make our $850. 00 a month payments for our yard ornament, because that is what we agree to do. At 42,333 miles we had the front end worked on hoping to fix the problem the temporary repair lasted until we reached 68,482 miles and its back!! so like I said it sits in our driveway in the last 4 months that truck has only driven 256 miles. This is not acceptable!!.

Tl - the contact owns a 2010 Dodge Ram 3500. The contact stated that the front driver side wheel would shake abnormally. The contact mentioned that it felt like the vehicle was losing control. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to diagnose the failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure who only offered to file a report. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 18,000 and the current mileage was 22,000. Kmj.

Upon hitting a bump, hump, or hole in the pavement while driving at highway speeds the steering wheel begins to vibrate and move side to side unexpectedly; the front end of the truck shakes and bounces violently until speed reduces to near stop. Brakes and steering are near ineffective until the violent shaking stops. It feels as if the whole front end is about to break loose from the vehicle, and driver control is severely compromised. This has happened 8-10 times in two years of ownership. It is always unexpected with no warning. I have become very uneasy about road trips in this vehicle. I am about to take it to a Dodge dealership one more time as the problem occurred again two days ago. I have only 700 miles of warranty left. Past trips to Dodge dealerships have given no relief with the comment always being "we could not get the problem to occur when we test drove the truck, and all front suspension tolerances are correct".

I have a 2010 Dodge 3500 cummins. Had in shop three times for steering. Lot of play in steering wheel. Hard to keep from swaying back and forth. They told me it was nature of the truck.

I have a 2010 Dodge 3500 heavy duty that starts wobbling form right to left as I am traveling along the highway at any speed above 50 mph whenever the truck encounters an uneven surface all of a sudden. A pot hole or a bump in the road will also cause it to start wobbling from the front like crazy. The dealer states that there is nothing wrong with the truck, but there is definitely something wrong with it.
