| Description of the problem | Truck is not driven very often. I noticed the power adjustable break pedals moves side to side early. But do to lack of driving i was never able to physically bring it to a dealer until just recently. I had it there for the air bag recall. And remembered to ask them to look at the pedal. They said it was definitely bad and a safety issue. They never did this type of repair. They were not sure how to do it and i think that it should be fixed from a design fault. I see that this is somewhat common from my research. Also i see that dodge has a repair kit out for this from 2009. If i hit break pedal it wants to swing to the left causing my foot to slip off and hit he accelerator. |
