Description of the problem | The 2002 dodge ram 1500 slt was bought in 2006. 2 months later, the rear end had to be replaced. No warranty. (2000. 00 out of pocket). Six months later, the front end went out. (2083. 00 out of pocket). No more problems until 6 months ago. Had to replace all wheel bearings and brakes ( 1500. 00 out of pocket) now, my mechanic says that the brakes and front suspension has to be replaced(another 2300. 00 out of pocket) this truck has never been taken off-road. It has been very well taken care of. Dodge has been notified,no response. How can they expect us to keep buying their vehicles, when they can't or won't tell us what is going on? I have not received a recall for any of the things that have happened. |
