TAKATA RECALL. WE RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM FIATCHRYSLER AUTOMOBILES ON OR ABOUT OCTOBER OF 2014 NOTIFYING US OF OUR DEFECTIVE AIRBAG AND THE NECESSARY REPLACEMENT. WE HAVE CONTACTED THEM AND OUR LOCAL DEALER, TANNER MOTORS, BRAINED MN. AS TO WHEN THIS AIRBAG REPLACEMENT WILL BE PERFORMED. WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THE NEW BAGS ARE CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE. THERE HAS BEEN NO RESPONSE TO THESE NUMEROUS CALLS WE HAVE MADE. WE GET THE SAME RUN AROUND. THE NEW AIRBAGS ARE BACK ORDERED. HOW LONG MUST I DRIVE AROUND WITH THIS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS CONDITION? WHO IS GOING TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF SOMEONE GETS HURT DUE TO THIS DELAY? THERE APPEARS TO BE AN INTENTIONAL FOOT DRAGGING BY WHOEVER IS BEARING THE COST IN THIS REPLACEMENT. WHAT IS OUR GOVERNMENT DOING TO MOTIVATE THESE PEOPLE TO PERFORM THE NEEDED REPAIR? I AM CURRENTLY LIMITING MY USAGE OF THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE DANGER IT POSES. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP IN RESOLVING THIS PROBLEM. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *TR

DODGE RAM 1500, 2003 SLT 4X4. DASH BOARD IS CRACKING AND FALLING APART. LESS THEN 30,000 MILES I NOTICED MY FIRST CRACK. ONLY A FEW YEARS OLD. NOW I HAVE MORE THEN 60,000 MILES AND CAN'T EVEN CLEAN IT FOR FEAR OF CUTTING MYSELF. IT HAS LOOKED LIKE I DON'T TAKE CARE OF MY TRUCK FOR OVER 3 YEARS. I CAN'T EVEN SELL IT AND PAID OVER $30,000 FOR IT NEW. THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PART AND DODGE KNOWS IT. THE REPLACEMENT PART IS FROM DODGE AND IS ALSO DEFECTIVE. IT ALSO COST $800.00 FOR THE REPLACEMENT DEFECTIVE PART FROM DODGE. THIS JUST ISN'T RIGHT. *TR

THE STEERING IS VERY LOOSE, WHEN GOING OVER A BUMP THE VEHICLE IS PULLED INTO ANOTHER DIRECTION AND YOU TEMPORARILY LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE 4X4 WAS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY, SO THE TRANSFER CASE WAS REPLACED. UPON REPLACING TRANSFER CASE THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL LOCKED UP AND THE REAR WHEELS WON'T MOVE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE. ALL OF THESE ISSUES ARE COMMON AMONG DODGE RAM 1500S OF THIS YEAR( 2003) THESE ISSUES SHOULD BE RECALLED!

WHILE DRIVING AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS OVER 30 AND USUALLY TEMPS BELOW 50, THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND WILL IMMEDIATELY LOSE THROTTLE. "DEAD PEDAL" SOMETIMES THE THROTTLE WILL SURGE THEN DROP OFF OTHER TIMES WHEN SLOWING THE TRANS (AUTOMATIC) WILL START TO CHATTER AS IF A MANUAL,. I USE A STORE PURCHASED OBD COMPUTER TO RESET. GET CODES 2121, 2123 SOMETIMES 0700. THIS SOMETIMES TAKES 2-3 TIMES TO RESET. VERY UNSAFE AND DANGEROUS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS, NUMEROUS TIMES, USUALLY IN WINTER AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. SOMETIMES AT INTERSECTION WHILE ACCELERATING. HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR SOLUTION FOR YEARS!! SEE MANY OTHERS ON NET WITH SAME PROBLEM. WHY ISN'T THIS FIXED BY DODGE AND OR CUMMINS. AGAIN VERY UNSAFE!!

THANKS FOR REVIEWING. I BOUGHT NOT JUST ONE BUT TWO 2003 DODGE RAM 1500 SLT LARAMIE OFF ROAD 4/4. AFTER ONLY 6-7 YEARS OF SERVICE THE TRUCK STARTED TO RUST. I WENT FOR MAINTENANCE AND WHEN RAISING THE VEHICLE THE TECHNICIAN GOT EXCITED AND STOPPED HE CALLED ME OVER TO SHOW ME MY DRIVER SIDE FRAME RAIL WAS SO DETERIORATED HE WAS UNSURE HE COULD SAFELY RAISE THE VEHICLE. I WAS SHOCKED. BECAUSE I HAD THE TRUCK FROM THE DEALER BRAND NEW AND KNEW THE CARE IN WHICH THE TRUCK RECEIVED. THE TRUCK IS UNSAFE AND THOUGHT I COULD JUST BUY A REPAIR. THE REPAIR COST AS MUCH AS BUYING A DIFFERENT TRUCK WHICH I DID. SAME ONE. AND GUESS WHAT THE SAME PROBLEM. RUST OVER THE WHEEL, BUMPER AND YES THE FRAME RAIL. I COULD POKE MY FINGER THOUGHT IT AND IT WOULD FALL APART. I CALLED DODGE TO EXPRESS MY CONCERN FOR THE AMOUNT OF TRUCKS LIKE THIS ON THE ROAD. THEY TOLD ME MY TRUCK WAS OLD AND THAT'S WHY. FOR A COMPANY TO ADVERTISE THEIR TRUCKS BEING THE TOUGHEST ON THE PLANT I DON'T THINK SO. THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS MY SON HAS A 1986 FORD TRUCK WHICH EVERYTHING FELL OFF EXCEPT THE FRAME, ON THE OTHER HAND, I HAVE A TRUCK WHICH ALL WORKS AND I CAN'T DRIVE. I'M SURE A LITTLE INVESTIGATION YOU WILL FIND 100000S OF THESE BROKEN FRAME TRUCKS THAT MOST DON'T EVEN KNOW IT'S HAPPENING. IT'S UNSAFE TO HAVE CONFIDENCE IN A VEHICLE TO PROVIDE PROTECTION IN CASE OF THE UNTHINKABLE. BUT DODGE HANDED OUT A BUNCH OF TRUCKS THAT HAVE TICKING TIME BOMBS IN THEM. I IMAGINE THE VEHICLE RESPONDING MUCH DIFFERENTLY IF IN A COLLISION WITH A RUSTED UN SUPPORTED FRAME. JUST LIKE A HOUSE IN FLORIDA WITHOUT BUILDING FOR A HURRICANE TO PASS. I FEEL DODGE COVERED UP THE PROBLEM AND SACRIFICED THE VERY PEOPLE THAT KEPT THEM IN BUSINESS. I WILL CONTINUE TO BRING LIGHT TO THIS AND I'M SURE MANY PEOPLE OUT THERE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. A VEHICLE THAT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND VALUELESS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION.
