problem #1

Jun 162013

Ram 2500 XLT 6.9L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 26,700 miles

steering box leaking above pitman arm

CONSIDERING I LIVE AN HOUR AND A HALF FROM THE NEAREST TOWN THIS AND ANY PROBLEM I HAVE IS A REAL PAIN! I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE BOX 3 TIMES ON THE 05 MODEL AND NOW MY 08 @ 27,000 MILES! WTH! IT'S NOT SO FUNNY BUT I THINK IT IRONIC THE 2005 IS DOWN AND WORKING ON THE 3RD TRANSMISSION AT 105, 000 MILES AND I HAVE TO PICK PARTS OFF OF IT TO KEEP THE 2008 UP AND RUNNING SO I CAN GET IT TO THE DEALER. THANK GOD THIS IS UNDER WARRANTY. BUT I CAN FORESEE PROBLEMS WITH THE 2008 MODEL BECAUSE I HAVE THE 2005 THAT HAS AND STILL CONTINUES TO GO THROUGH SUSPENSION, STEERING AND TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THE 2008 HAS COOLING PROBLEMS WHERE THE 2005 DID NOT. I DIDNT INTEND FOR THE 05 TO BE A PARTS TRUCK! SO I PAYED 40,000 FOR A PARTS TRUCK FOR A 98,000$ TRUCK! C'MON DODGE!
