Driving in my neighborhood about 20 mph coming up to a stop sign hear this howling noise if you will. then when i hear it instantly something grabbed and locked and stopped me! i've been having issues with my transmission slipping, well not slipping but between gears. like the rpms were going up but nothing was moving. i'm not talking about the rpm gauge on the truck going up, it's just a rev up sound. then will catch and go i'm guessing it's all with the transmission. i'm just glad i was only doing 20 mph instead of hwy speed when it locked up
I've had the drag link recall done on my truck at the dealership and i didn't have any idea what they did to fix it till i started seeing posts online about welding the adjusting link on it. well my truck is dragging to the right and needs an alignment, and i know if i take it somewhere, they'll have to cut that weld to properly do the alignment, and i don't want to do that. i would like to see the entire drag link replaced so nothing has to be welded together and keep me from getting it aligned.
Your recall remedy for 19v-021 is unacceptable. the solution of welding the drag link adjuster nuts to the sleeve, permanently renders the vehicle from being properly aligned forever. the only way around this is to break the welds, adjust the steering sleeve and then welding the nuts again. this is an unacceptable solution as most alignment shops do not have welding equipment to do this, thus potentially placing the vehicle occupants in danger again. your agreed solution does absolutely nothing to address permanent fix and was nothing more than a way to mitigate cost for fca. this permanent fix needs to be installation of the redesigned part or reimbursement for the purchase/installation of an aftermarket part that will not suffer the same potential failure as the part under recall.

Fca has issued ram recall v06. then they tell us that there is not a fix to the recall. so what good does it do to issue a recall if the issue can't be fixed. someone needs to pressure fca to issue the fix. i talked to three ram dealers and they all say that yes, there is a recall v06 but they do not have a fix for it yet and they can only wait for fca to issue a fix to them. seriously...it does no good to issue a recall if the vehicle can't be recalled and fixed.
