I HAVE A CONTINUAL PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING ON MY NEW TRUCK. IT WANDERS GOING DOWN THE ROAD AT HIWAY SPEEDS. YOU HAVE TO CONTINUE TO RECOMPENSATE FOR THE DRIFT IN THE STEERING. IT IS UNSAFE AND ACCORDING TO OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME MODEL DODGE TRUCK, THEY ARE ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THEIR STEERING. THERE ARE ALOT OF POSTS ON THE TURBO DIESEL REGISTER WEBSITE ON THE WEB OF OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS. ALL DODGE WILL DO IS CHANGE THE STEERING BOX AND IT DOES NOT HELP. WE NEED SOME HELP GETTING DODGE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM.

PLEASE TRY TO HELP US AS DODGE IS NOT COMING THRU.
