What is this all about?


Half ass fix, probably a dealers way of doing it cheaply then billing dodge for the correct fix. I would contact Dodge directly and get the correct scoop.

It really doesn't work that way. The manufacturer specifies the remedy and the NHTSA approves it. You don't want to get caught halfassing a safety recall. The liabilities could be tremendous.


There’s some pretty shady dealers out there. Last recall for suspension was on my 07. I asked one dealer what it entailed. Basicly needed the truck up on a lift to inspect the part. I ended up going to another dealer for convenience and all that happened is the service writer looked under the front of the truck and said I was good.

I called Dodge and complained, they ended up sending me to the dealer I initially contacted. Turns out the tie rod was bad and they replaced it. When I complained Dodge told me they were investigating the other dealer. That dealer sold out two years later.
