2000 Dodge Ram Complaints

TAKATA RECALL MY COMPLAINT IS THE AIRBAG, NOTHING HAS HAPPENED BUT THIS IS ON THE RECALL LIST, SO I WANT IT FIXED SO I WANT END UP DYING DUE TO NEGLECT. DOES SOMETHING HAVE TO HAPPEN IN ORDER FOR REPAIR WORK TO BE DONE- REALLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 DODGE RAM 1500. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE CONTACT WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE PCM (PULSE CODE MODULATION) NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PCM HAD BEEN REPLACED THREE TIMES; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND CAUSED THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE TO BECOME REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE BACK AND NECK THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE DETAILS WERE UNKNOWN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 205,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE FRAME IS RUSTING AND HAS A BREAK IN THE FRONT END!

DASH CRACKING AND FALLING INTO THE PASSENGER AREA. BIG CHUNKS OF PLASTIC FELL OFF OF THE DASH AND THE TRUCK IS RELATIVELY NOT USED.

THE DASH BOARD STARTED CRACKING ROUGHLY 4 TO 5 YEARS AFTER PURCHASE. I PURCHASED NEW IN 2000. IT CONTINUED TO CRACK AND FALL APART AS TIME WENT ON. I HAD TO REMOVE THE DASH BOARD IN ORDER TO REPLACE THE HEATING CORE. DURING THAT REPAIR IT SIMPLY, COMPLETELY CRACK AND BROKE APART. IN ORDER TO GET THE DASH BOARD BACK IN THE TRUCK, I HAD TO GLUE IT TOGETHER USING ALUMINUM SHEET METAL UNDER THE DASH IN ORDER TO HAVE SOMETHING SOLID TO GLUE THE PIECES BACK TOGETHER WITH. I NEVER SAW ANYTHING LIKE IT IN ALL MY LIFE. IT'S THE WORST DASH BOARD I HAVE EVER SEEN AND IT WILL KEEP MY FROM BUYING ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT UNLESS CHRYSLER INSTALLS A BETTER DASH FREE OF CHARGE.
