 Description of the problemI was driving down my street to my house and right before my house i heard a big pop, i was driving about 10-15 mph. I wasn't sure what it was until i needed to turn and i couldn't. I got out and my tire drivers side tire was jammed into the fender well and the tie-rod was broken. Well about 3 months prior to this happening i got a safety recall notice in the mail for that exact tie-rod. I called the dealership and they said they didn't have the part and when they did get the parts in for that recall they would call me. So, back to the tie-rod breaking. I called the dealership dwayne lane in everett,wa and asked them if they tow vehicles that are affected by recalls and if i could get a loaner/rental car and they said no. They also said they still didn't have the parts to fix the issue(recall). I wasn't happy with dodge due to this issue. So about 3 days later the dealership calls me back and says they got the ok from dodge to put on the "recalled tie-rod" so i can have my truck back until the fix(new parts from the recall) is available. I asked the service manager if he would except that if his family was in the vehicle and he said yes. I wasn't happy with that decision from dodge to put on the recalled tie-rod end to get me back on the road. So, i ended up getting my truck back with faulty parts on it and drove it for about 2-3 weeks and the dealership called to say the new parts are in. They fixed it again and here i am now. Now with this buy back from dodge, the way i see it since the recall has been fixed i wouldn't have the option for dodge to buy my truck back. I think they should have to give me the option especially since mine actually did break while i was wait for dodge to get the recall parts. Please look into this i do not find this expectable business, it wasn't safe to put the recalled part back on my truck and dodge said it was.
