| Description of the problem | I was getting my pickup serviced at a shop (not a dealer) and they advised me of the front end problems and the danger of continuing to drive it and i could see the problem with the front end. I had the repairs made as i was unable to get to a dealer which would be 40 miles away. Dodge is refusing to pay anything on the repairs because they were not made at a dealership. We live in montana and there is not a dealer on every corner and i was unable to get to one. It was not safe to drive it. |
