POWER TRAIN
Owner Narrative
I NOW HAVING PROBLEMS WITH REAR END FOR THE 4TH TIME SINCE I GOT THIS TRUCK. I PAID TO HAVE REPAIRED FIRST TIME. 3 MONTHS LATER IT WENT AGAIN. DODGE DEALER GAVE HARD TIME BUT THEY FOUND IT DEFECTIVE AGAIN. FIXED. ONLY A YEAR AND 1/2 LATER IT IS GOING AGAIN. I ONLY PUT 18000 MILES ON THIS LAST ONE. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE TO FIX THE REAR IN MY RAM TRUCK. IT IS TOO EXPENSIVE TO PAY OUT OF MY POCKET. 4 TIMES? NEVER HAD THAT WITH A FORD. PROBLEM IS I NEED THE TRUCK AND FIXED INCOME AND CAN'T PAY DEALERS TO KEEP FIXING THE REAR. HELP. I NEED TO KNOW IF THERE IS ANYTHING I CAN DO ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AS IT GOES BACK TO SHOP ON JULY 31. THE DODGE PEOPLE SAY I AM OUT OF ANY WARRANTY. I CAN'T AFFORD A NEW TRUCK EITHER. THE DATES LISTED IS CLOSE TO WHEN THIS LAST ISSUE STARTED. IT DOES NOT REFLECT BACK WHEN THE OTHERS FIRST STARTED BUT ABOUT 2 OR 3 YEARS NOW SINCE FIRST REAR WENT. *TR
