DODGE DAKOTA 2006 car safety problem was reported on Sept 06, 2006.DODGE DAKOTA 2006, manufactured by CHRYSLER GROUP LLC had a problem with STEERING:COLUMN . we purchased a new 2006 dodge dakota in august. after test driving several models we ordered one from the dealership. we were not told that we were test driving a vehicle with tilt wheel. so the vehicle we received had no tilt wheel, which would be fine if you could see the speedometer when the speed is 50 to 70 mph. the drivers are 5'6" and 6' tall. the 6' tall person has the seat back as far as the legs will allow and has the seat tilted back. the 5'6' person is unable to sit up straight in the seat and see the speedometer. upon calling the dealership we were told that the steering column is a design flaw and we are stuck with the problem. we feel this is a safety issue and this problem should be corrected. tilt wheels should not be an option it should be standard. chrysler's service representatives told us that its was our problem, they would not allow us to talk to their managers and eventually hung up on us. we were un able to contact the chrysler regional reprsentative for our area, because they refuse to give out that information. everyone has been quite uncooperative in this situation. .Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1D7HW28KX6S.

DODGE DAKOTA 2006 car safety problem was reported on Sept 29, 2008.DODGE DAKOTA 2006, manufactured by CHRYSLER GROUP LLC had a problem with STEERING . i was backing out of my drive way and the tie rod fell off my truck and both front wheels buckled. this is a 2006 dodge dakota truck with greaseless ball joints in the front end. the truck was just in the manufactures shop 2 weeks prior to this for service and they didn't even notice this was about to happen. i'm not blaming them i'm just making a point that there was no sign that this was going to happen. and i know that they looked at the front end because they let me know that my brakes were getting close to needing replaced. and the tie rod is bolted on right where they look to check the brakes. i feel this is a major safety concern for me and other people out there driving these trucks. if this had happened while driving 50 to 60 mph i probably wouldn't be here typing this right now. this is a two wheel drive truck that has never been used for off road driving. i did keep the tie rod and have pictures of it if needed showing how dried out and rusty it is on the inside. so i hope you do give this serious thoughts about looking into this matter. thank you john!!! *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 56000 miles.

DODGE DAKOTA 2006 car safety problem was reported on Oct 27, 2012.DODGE DAKOTA 2006, manufactured by CHRYSLER GROUP LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . i was involved in a crash where i was traveling at 45 mph and pushed my brake pedal to stop as i was approaching an intersection. the driver's side front brake locked up and there was approximately a 50-60 ft skid mark only from that wheel reducing the speed from 45 mph to approximately 35 mph during the skid while the other 3 wheels failed to brake. the failure of the anti lock braking system, which was an uneven distribution of braking pressure, caused my truck to fail to stop in time. the distance was well within normal braking distance for the speed. and until now, i had never had a similar problem. the brakes, caliper, and rotors had been replaced in september of this 2012 with new parts. they had been installed correctly and i have documentation to prove that. during the crash, the airbags failed to deploy. the accident was one where my dodge dakota rear ended another vehicle. no injuries had occurred, however the truck sustained approximately $5000.00 worth of damage to the front end and is considered totaled due to the cost of repairs vs the value of the truck. the mileage on the vehicle is approximately 206,500 miles and all maintenance was current and preventive maintenance (as required when under warranty to 100,000 miles) work was completed at both a dealership or an authorized auto repair shop. after the 100,000, work was completed by an authorized repair shop or routine maintenance was performed by myself, owner, who is experienced in auto repair/maintenance procedures utilizing oem / oem approved replacement parts. according to the nhtsa item # 10016024 there had been a recall due to and ecu failure for vehicles produced just before mine was. i do not know how to tell if my ecu is the replacement one or should have been included in the recall, but wasn't. photographs of the skid marks and damage are available upon request and i have truck at my home. *tr.Vehicle was involved in a crash. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 206500 miles.

DODGE DAKOTA 2006 car safety problem was reported on Nov 26, 2012.DODGE DAKOTA 2006, manufactured by Chrysler Group LLC had a problem with STEERING . i noticed in november 2012 that the steering on my 2006 dodage dakota quad cab seemed stiff and hard to turn, almost as if it wasn't getting enough power steering fluid - checked it and it was ok. seemed at first to be stiffer when it was cold so attributed it to winter cold. then at the end of march 2013, i was turning and heard a clunk as if i had hit a pothole. i heard it again on the same day and then heard a squeak as if the springs needed oiling. i stopped at my local repair shop. the mechanic oiled something - drove it and didn't hear a clunk. three days later i took it to him and said it is clunking regularly and the steering still seems stiff. he replaced upper and lower ball joints that had gone bad, control arms, and tie rods that had play in them. this at 82,000 miles. these repairs are ridiculous for 82,000 miles. after spending $1400 i am still having tight steering. i don't know about dodge executives, but i can't afford repairs like this. the most complaints listed for this model and year are for steering and i've heard from the dealer that the ball joints go out early - as mine did. this vehicle should be recalled for steering and ball joints! my 1993 dakota is still going without these problems and it has 204,000 miles. if they can't make them the way they used to i'm not buying dodge again. p.s. my sister's 2009 dakota had a broken tie rod, ball joint, and steering issues. they can't find anything wrong with the steering. she is dumping it - won't drive it again. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 80000 miles.
