Description of the problem	Rear pinion nut, drive shaft recall. In novembe while driving the rear pinion nut came a loose sending the drive shaft into the transfer case completely breaking the whole thing ripped the rear gears and locking up wheels. After 2 mos. Of trying finally got a chrysler dodge dealer to accept my truck under the recall. After almost a mos. In shop $1100 worth of repairs that i had to pay for that werent there prior to the incident, i got my truck back 2 weeks later it happen again. This time it was just the transfer case that was damaged. Towed it back to dealership, this time i had to pay $400 because 4x4 sensor was bad and because of the year of my truck its sold with 2 other switches and they werent going to warranty the work if i didnt pay to have switches changed by them. Mind you the light wasnt on prior to this happening the 2nd time. I called chryler corp explained to them what was going on and they told me that there is nothing they can do and they dont get involved with there dealerships. Now here i am 2 weeks later took a road trip to georgia and boom it happened again while im driving i just see smoke coming out from under my truck, i manage to pull over and the transfer case explodes again. I get it to dodge dealership in gwinnette they find out the drive shaft is bent and was never replaced from when it exploded the first time. It took chrysler a week to respond to the dealership in gwinnette on how to procede. Its been 3 weeks havent gotten a return call from chrysler. No accommadations have been made for me. Im stranded with no vehicle wasted my whole entire vacation. Vehicle still not repaired.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
