Description of the problem	2004 dodge 1500 quad cab 22k miles. Rear passenger axle end broke off causing no control of vehicle, thus the truck spins into a sign and damaged the passenger rear bed. Police report says that it looked like a manufacture defect of the axle. We went on line that night and found several cases they same. I contacted chrysler and they had an investigator come and look. After approx 5 weeks i got a letter back that says the axel broke due to impact and they were not going to pay for anything. Just type in dodge axles broke and the internet has a lot of the same failures recorded by other dodge owners. This is not right someone can be killed with this fault.
