| Description of the problem | I have a 2006 dodge ram that has a recall on the front wheels due to improper grease on the bearings. Http://www-odi. Nhtsa. Dot. Gov/cars/problems/recalls/results. Cfm when contacting dodge about this problem, they said that they would not perform the recall because my truck has a rebuilt title on it. Because this is a manufacture issue, i feel that it is still their responsibility to perform this because they have a recall. I understand that the warranty is void with a rebuilt title, but a recall has no effect on the warranty. If the vehicle has 200,000 miles on it, they still have to fix the recall even though the vehicles is no longer under warranty. Now, my wheel is making a horrible noise, and when i jack it up, the wheel will rock back and forth. |
