Dodge Ram 3500 2008 Wheels RimDodge Ram 3500 2008 Wheels Rim Review #10215830 DODGE RAM 3500 2008 car safety problem was reported on Jan 20, 2008.DODGE RAM 3500 2008, manufactured by CHRYSLER GROUP LLC had a problem with WHEELS:RIM . i recently bought a 2008 dodge at power chrysler, dodge, phoenix arizona before i bought the vehicle, the dealer had sent it out to have various alterations made. at the time i bought it i thought it had very expensive off-road wheels and tires, of the type i had never seen before. i later came to find out these tires and wheels were made for a semi-truck. further, this set up has not been tested properly and is new. i don¿t think anyone knows what putting giant, heavy semi wheels and tires on a regular truck will do to it. i had a lot of problems with the vehicle and brought it back to the dealer 4 different times to repair the same problem - having to do with vibrations in the undercarriage, wobbling and shaking and hopping. after they had it for the fourth time, and they had removed the semi truck tires and wheels and replaced them with regular tires and wheels, i was test driving it on a 4-lane divided road and the wheels started shaking so badly they caused the truck to shake violently throwing me around in the seat of the cab and then the truck lost the ability to be controlled and leaped into the other lane. if i had been on an undivided road and there had been on-coming vehicles i could have had a head-on collision. i have told them about the problems and i wrote them. the secretary confirmed he gave the letter to the manager, warren miller. my miller did not even give me the courtesy of a reply. dodge dealers are continuing to do these alterations to their vehicles in arizona - perhaps nationwide. i saw another new dodge truck in the alteration shop having the same thing done to it when i took mine to be fixed. it may be popular because it looks really nice? this type of alteration has not been properly tested and it is not safe. i ran into a person who had the same alteration done on his truck and he said it shook and vibrated so badly he had to replace a set of hubs every month until he finally sold the vehicle. *tr .Dodge Ram 3500 2008 problem was reported in DESERT HILLS, AZ.

[xxx] said he would order the recall parts and put our name on it and have it there for the future. at this point i don't want your agency to ever touch my vehicle again but i would like to get the steering recall taken care of. we are very unhappy now that we have to go back and spend a day or 2 dealing with this again...it does not engender confidence. thought you would like to know this dealer failed to remedy this defect and that is why i'm complaining...we did not get our steering recall taken care of even though that is what we scheduled an appointment for and we feel we were lied to just so we would bring in our vehicle and so they could come up with other reasons to work on the vehicle and get money out of us. we have not received a call as of today, 1 feb, that the recall steering parts have come in yet.

(130 nâ·m). the associated figure 8 clearly idicates the use of a torrque wrench and is lableled as such. being an engineer and familiar with lock nuts and bolted joint design, i believe the use of an impact gun for installation could result in a broken/cracked nut, or loss of teh teflon locking feature due to heating or mechanical abuse during installation. landers mclarty should re-acomplish recall work for all vehicles that used impact gun to accomplish the repair. .Vehicle was involved in a crash. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 108000 miles.

Dodge Ram 3500 2008 Visibility/wiperDodge Ram 3500 2008 Visibility/wiper Review #10649573 DODGE RAM 3500 2008 car safety problem was reported on Oct 22, 2010.DODGE RAM 3500 2008, manufactured by Chrysler Group LLC had a problem with VISIBILITY/WIPER . while traveling in heavy rain, the wipers started to operate in intermittent mode, even though the switch was set to continues operation. minutes later, they seemed to quit altogether. using window wash would get me the normal four swipe function, so i had to continue under this pattern. as i continued, the wiper function would occasionally return to full, or intermittent function without regard to switch position (except off). the next day was dry, and the wipers operated normally, and local dealer could not find a problem. in the next rain, the problem returned after about twenty minutes of use. i returned to the dealer, but rain had stopped, and so did the problem. it has now been about three years of dealing with this issue, and still i get nothing but frustrated shrugs. this problem can arise within minutes of rain, or thirty plus minutes, but does not happen if i run the wipers without rain. i did one experiment when the truck had been parked outdoors and it started to rain. without moving, i started the wipers and let them run. they operated normally for more then an hour before the problem started, so i belive airflow is getting water some place that is causing the problem. after informing the dealer, they want to do a very expensive trial and error, now that the truck is out of warranty. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 68000 miles.
