problem #3

Mar 152004

Ram Van 3500

  • 58,000 miles
While having the front passenger side tire check by the dealership because it was balled. The dealership noticed that the wheel bearing lubrication had depleted. This resulted in the hub developing rust and the axle seizing.

problem #2

Feb 152004

Ram Van 3500 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 41,000 miles
The front ball bearings failed on a 200 Dodge van. I also saw other vans with similar miles(40,000) with the same problem and with ball joint problems too. This was prompted by a tv report on Dodge durango ball joint problems. I think Chrysler is making bad front end parts for all its light duty trucks.

Front end/bearing problems in (2) 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 vans. Problem has been reoccuring and Dodge fails to admit the problem. They also refuse to replace parts that they replaced 11,000 miles ago. Bearings dissintegrate and cause damage to hub spindles.
