Description of the problem	Lost the ability to steer the truck while in motion. Brought in on 5/17/17 to dover dodge, rockaway nj. Steering rack was not available. No new parts just refurbished didn't get back until 5/20/17. Part #'s r5154492-aa, gear rack 19001012. Three weeks later happened again. Back into same dodge location on 6/15/17. Less than 24 hrs later happened again 200+ miles from home! We were backing into a campsite and heard the grinding. Had to be towed from a campground we were staying at. It put a damper on the whole trip. Had to leave our camper there paying for storage and we are still waiting for the steering rack to come in. It has been a whole week already it is now in fairfield dodge, pa. We finally had to make the 200+ trip back up to pick the truck up on 7/2/17! Fingers crossed so far so good.
