The V06 Drag Link recall of welding the adjuster doesn't allow a complete front end alignment to be done correctly. If you have had the adjuster welded, you cannot re-center the steering wheel with the adjustments that have been provided by the manufacture. This itself presents a safety issue with the steering wheel now being off centered! I have not had the welding done and have been trying to get the drag link replaced since it has become loose again! Independent repair shops won't touch a RAM truck that has been welded or not do to liability. The replacement parts are now in stock and they should be replaced since the way that RAM says to now do an alignment only allow toe and camber but not re-centering of your steering wheel. I have confirmed that with RAM service. Ram Cares has not helped in this matter. Have a previous Request #1273536 with NHTSA. This is a major safety issue for myself and others on the road. Thank you for your time.

There was the V06 Drag Link recall which was to weld the drag link solid with no adjustment. I had it inspected on 3 May 19 where they found the nuts not properly torqued. I told them not to weld on the truck as this would cause extra expense to me when having any future work done on the truck. Had contacted Ram Cares to get a replacement drag link installed now that a replacement part is available. That didn't happen as the appointment that I had through Ram Cares couldn't happen without DM notes. There is clucking in the steering again like before and I'm sure it has loosened up again. I confirmed with independent repair shops that they would either not touch it do to welding or charge me additional cost to remove the weld and wouldn't re-weld do to liability. If Ram was willing to supply lifetime alignments for the truck, then no problem. The welding goes against how it's supposed to be fixed. I could be subject to a DOT inspection and truck impounded if there is welding on steering components. I know it's a discretionary rule, But could cost me time, money and other expenses for something that there is the correct replacement part available to fix the manufacture error. Thank you for you time.

I HAVE 27 OPEN RECALLS, the steering wheel knuckle just keeps getting looser, nothing on the column will tighten, my wipers short out, I was sold a Omission deleted truck with documentation the day of purchase it was omission deleted, I was never told this vehicle was unsafe, The manufacture wants me to pay hundreds of dollars out of pocket for them to see if it maybe safe enough. Both Chysler, and the certified dealership of ford refuse to take any accountability or action

- Steering linkage jam broke while driving. Not sure if available truck is at dealership - I was unable to steer the vehicle while driving. I could have died and killed multiple people if a car crash had occurred - Dealer has acknowledged they inspected the part but did not perform the recall as it was not cracked. This is not the remedy listed on the NHTSA. - No warning lamps or symptoms

The bearing brackets that hold the fan clutch on explode sending the fans into the radiator. When this occurs you have limited brakes and steering. This is not first one to do this to me. This time the truck caught fire because of how hot the parts were. All of the fail on the cummins engine. Each time has been around 65mph. The shops laugh about it being another when you tow it in. Thanks richie

I have received recall notice concerning the drag link. The recall says that this defective part could cause an crash. I have called Chrysler who says that there is at this time no fix. I called several dealerships and one said there is no fix and the other states that the fix is to weld the part. Welding this part does not allow me to have to replace the tie rod ends each time to adjust the front end alignment. It may be that this vehicle was sold to me knowing that there was a problem since the recalls were for previous years. Chrysler says they are only fixing the 2017 and 2018 years. I have a 2014 3500 and a 2015 3500. We inspected and found the nut to be very loose. Your website says that there is a fix of replacing the drag link. Chrysler disagrees. Who's right?

I have had this truck inspected several times due to the steering bracket weld failures as per the recalls. I was recently at the metroplex Dodge on denton dr. By love filed airport in dallas and on my way home I heard a rubbing noise coming from the front passenger side wheel I noticed the wheel well cover was loose and was rubbing against the tire. Upon further inspection I noticed the welds on the spring perch bracket which is welded on the fram rails had broken off and and pushed the plastic wheel cover off. The spring perch bent upward and the spring is about to come off. Had the spring perch bracket broken off from the remaining weld wouldn of caused a roll over. One of the recalls mentioned some steering components may have welds with insufficient Fusion which causes the welds to break right off. This has happened on my truck. I was very lucky I noticed the weld break and stopped using the truck. This additional failure has to mentioned on any future recalls to prevent future accidents.

At 65 mph or more, when any deviation in road occurs truck will bounce all over road and will be unable to control until speed is lowered to 35 mph. Death wobble. This has happened several times.

There was a recall on the track bar bracket in 2016. The dealership did not fix it then when we thought they did, and cleared it out of the recall system as if it was fixed. The bracket broke in 2018 and the dealership refuses to fix it because the truck has an aftermarket lift. Chrysler will not help either due to the lift. We bought the truck this way, and have no way to take the lift off as they are requesting. We want the recalled part fixed. The truck has had a death wobble since we purchased it due to this bracket. When it was still doing it after we took it to the dealership in 2016, we contacted them and they told us they didn't know why it would still be doing it. After it broke while we were driving on the highway, we realized the original bracket was still on the truck. When we called the dealership they admitted to only doing a visual inspection and not changing the bracket in 2016. We took it back to them and they are now refusing to fix it because of the lift. The lift didn't cause the problem, and they should fix a factory recall regardless of aftermarket parts.

While driving, heard loud pop. Lost steering and breaking ability. My husband notice the water pump had blown and the belt was shredded. Dodge said the water pump was on recall. They replaced it with another recalled water pump and refused to replace the belt and any fluids although they were a result of the pump. Concerned that this will happen again and cause wreck.
