Middle of frame rusted through on right and left side and dealer's floor lift went about half-way through both sides when the technician. tried to raise truck to check wiring under truck. The lift only crunched about halfway through near the middle of the frame. That was the point when the technician noticed the truck was lifting unevenly and making a crunching sound when he started trying to lift it. He left the truck as it was - with two wheels on the floor and two wheels about an inch off the floor He hollered for th shop supervisor to look at, who came and got me in the waiting room to show me what happened. The dealership could not repair the frame, but said there was a welding shop a couple of miles away down a back road in Zachow, WI where I could safely drive to if I went really slow. I don't know when the frame started rusting or the date the dealer's hydraulic lift broke through the frame. The truck's rear fenders were starting to significantly rust when it was about 3-4 years old. It was purchased new. I don't know how badly the frame had rusted at that time. I'm fairly certain the truck had less that 100,000 miles on it when the dealer found that the frame was rusted through. It's 22 years old now and was bought new in 2003. It has 147,000 miles on it today. Assuming that the miles/year were roughly the same at 6,682, and the tail lights started acting \"funny\" (the reason we brought the truck to the dealership),happened the year after we bought our new 2013 Lund boat (2014), that would put the mileage on the truck at 73,502.

So most wont have the recall performed. So until the dealers are forced to repair/replace the brittle dashes when they perform these recalls then people will not have it addressed. Also i have owned my Dodge since October 2022. Truck is registered with dodge on the website and yet to receive a recall notice in the mail. Now if i go and look it shows the recall on my truck but many do not register their vehicles with the manufacturers website. All in all the EXPENSIVE dashboards being broke by dealerships performing the recall is why owners wont go thru it. Many have paid thousands in getting the dashes fixed. Also id think brittle dashboards that turn sharp daggers would be a safety hazard as well but yet no recall. My dash is missing HUGE pieces. Leaving sharp jagged edges that will be knives in an accident. I mean if the dashes bust just by replacing an airbag inflator or just sun exposure.

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.

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.

NOT HAVING A SAFE VEHICLE DRIVE SEVERELY CRIPPLES OUR ABILITY TO EARN MONEY AND PUT FOOD ON OUR TABLE.

TO HELP ME OUT ******************MAR 10, 2003 | RECALL ID# 21715 RECALL REASON STEERING:COLUMN RECALL DATE MAR 10, 2003 MODEL AFFECTED RAM 1500 POTENTIAL UNITS AFFECTED 287725 RECALL SUMMARY ON CERTAIN PICKUP TRUCKS, THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR AT THE BOTTOM OF THE STEERING COLUMN CONTAINS AN UNDER-SIZED TERMINAL FOR THE HVAC BLOWER MOTOR CIRCUIT. LOCALIZED HEATING FROM CURRENT FLOW WITH THE BLOWER SPEED SET ON HIGH MAY CAUSE THE TERMINAL CONTACTS TO RELAX AND LOSE ELECTRICAL CONTACT. THIS CAN CAUSE THE HVAC BLOWER MOTOR TO BECOME INOPERATIVE. CONSEQUENCE THIS CONDITION COULD CAUSE IMPAIRMENT OF VISIBILITY IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. REMEDY DEALERS WILL INSTALL A WIRING HARNESS OVERLAY TO CORRECT THIS CONDITION. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN APRIL 15, 2003. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT DAIMLERCHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403.

THEY DID CALL HER AT 11:30AM AND FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, THE VALVE SPRING IN THE NUMBER 7 CYLINDER HEAD BROKE WHICH CAUSED THE CONNECTING ROD TO DROP. APPARENTLY THIS IS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CYLINDER HEAD. CHRYSLER IS REPLACING THE LEFT CYLINDER HEAD, THE LOWER BLOCK, AND THE EXHAUST INTAKE. CHRYSLER HOWEVER WILL REPLACE THE PARTS IN THE RIGHT CYLINDER HEAD THAT FAILED ON THE LEFT SIDE WITH NEW SPRINGS.

I FELL BACKWARDS ONTO THE PAVEMENT INJURING MY BACK AND LEFT SHOULDER. MY HEAD MISSED STRIKING A CONCRETE CURB BY MERE INCHES. THIS FAILURE CONSTITUTES A SERIOUS SAFETY CONDITION WITH A STRONG POSSIBILITY OF PERSONAL INJURY. THIS IS ALSO A LATENT DEFECT THAT IS UNABLE TO BE DETECTED BY THE CONSUMER UNTIL THE COMPONENT FAILS. MY INJURIES RESULTED IN TWO LOST-WORK DAYS, BUT COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL IF MY HEAD HAD STRUCK THE CONCRETE CURBING MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY. THIS SAFETY CONDITION AFFECTS BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER A-PILLAR AND B-PILLAR GRAB HANDLE ASSEMBLIES (IF QUAD CAB) IN ALL DODGE RAM SERIES TRUCKS. AN INSPECTION OF THE COMPONENT SHOWED THAT THE ASSEMBLY IS HELD TO THE VEHICLE STRUCTURE WITH TWO 8MM BOLTS. THE BOLTS HAD PULLED-THROUGH THE PLASTIC MATERIAL OF THE ASSEMBLY. THERE IS NO METAL SUB-STRUCTURE WITHIN THE HANDLE ASSEMBLY TO PREVENT BOLT PULL-THROUGH FROM OCCURRING. IT SEEMS UNCONSCIONABLE THAT A MANUFACTURER WOULD DESIGN A COMPONENT TO BE USED AS A OCCUPANT WEIGHT BEARING DEVICE WITHOUT INSURING THAT THE COMPONENT IS DESIGNED TO WITHSTAND THE LOADS LIKELY TO BE PLACED UPON IT. BEST PRACTICES FOR GRAB HANDLES SHOULD ALWAYS INCORPORATE A METAL SUB-STRUCTURE INTO THEIR DESIGN. ON A SIDE NOTE, MY DEALER INFORMED ME THAT THE REPLACEMENT COMPONENT IS ON NATIONAL BACK-ORDER WITH EVERY PARTS DEPOT HAVING FIFTEEN OR MORE PARTS ON ORDER. THIS WOULD INDICATE THAT THE PROBLEM IS WIDE SPREAD, AND REQUIRES IMMEDIATE CORRECTIVE ACTION. *PH","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2003","productMake":"DODGE","productModel":"RAM QUAD CAB","manufacturer":"Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)"}]},{"odiNumber":10028611,"manufacturer":"Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"07/04/2003","dateComplaintFiled":"07/19/2003","vin":"1D7HA18D53S","components":"VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL","summary":"PURCHASED A DODGE RAM 1500 W/HEMI ENGINE ON 5-29-03.
