(reported on)

Dakota 4WD

  • miles
Vehicle handles poorly, wanders, no feel to steering.has been back to dealer several times. Dealer has stated that manufacturer is aware of problem but hasen't come up with a solution.vehicle is very difficult to drive, very hard to keep going in a straight line, and to stay in the right lane. I don't feel that Dodge is doing all that it can to remedy this situation.I am planning a trip to Alaska pulling a fifth wheel trailer next summer and do not feel that it would be safe to do so with this vehicle.
