Description of the problem	My truck has an engine miss, that is confirmed by the manufactures own engineers who say there is no known solution. Dc refuses to honor their comittment and has failed in their so called attempts at repair. The clockspring has twice been replaced, first after it broke two days after the dc rep inspected my truck but refused to do anything with the concerns. Second time was the recall 982 which was performed on 7/9/01. The noise in the steering wheel has since returned and the steering at times gets tight while turning right. The first clockspring that broke was also after the vehicle steering wheel was turned to the right. The brakes will shudder when coming to a stop, and the dealer replaced the rear drums at one point but refused to procede further. On 5/13/01 coming to an intersection the trucks rear tires locked up and the truck entered the intersection approx. 1/3 to 1/2 the length of the truck, on 11/17/01while returning home i noticed a burnt odor at the rear of the truck, a further inspection showed smoke coming from the wheels, touching the rear wheel it was extremely hot to the touch. So hot in fact i pulled my hand away before i was burnt. Front tires still show extreme signs of wear , dealer has refused to do anything further. In fact dependable dodge of vero beach on 5/14/01 told me dc ordered that no further work be done on my truck. They in fact stated they will breach their warranty. *ak
