Vehicle was manufactured without tow hooks at the front of the vehicle. It got stuck in soft wet sand on a camping trip. No means was available to extract the vehicle without attaching a tow chain directly to the chassis. When vehicle was pulled out, the front spoiler and bumper were damaged. On 9-2-05, a daimler Chrysler representative on their 1-800 line refused to assist in repairing the vehicle, or even provide the tow hooks that the vehicle is lacking.

While driving approximately five mph and pulling into a driveway a-frame weld broke, causing frame to disconnect and drop to ground. Dealership is in possession of vehicle, and no determination has been made for reason of this problem. Please provide any additional information / attachments.

Water leaks through seams in truck. Has been back to dealership 6 times. Water still leaks in truck to the point of pouring out passenger side door when opened.

While truck was getting an oil change the mechanic noticed an old fracture through an improper weld of the left front suspension lower a frame member. It was old. There was no bright metal. This probably was an improper weld during construction. Fortunately this was found and welded. This could easily have led to a complete failure with vehicle loss of control. I have taken photos of the fractured weld.
