| Description of the problem | Vibration on acceleration worse with trailer attached. Truck has been to dealer 12-13 times for problem. They have replaced harmonic balancer,complete driveshaft,8 different center carriers shim and bracket,and i don't know what else. The service manager made the mistake of telling me it is what it is. That's a whole other story. A chrysler case rep called me personally and told me to send in the lemon card. After doing so three weeks passed at this time i called chrysler and they stated that the case worker no longer worked there. I am now in the process of taking them to court. I will never buy another dodge in my lifetime!!! 2006 mega cab |
