AFTER YOU FUEL UP THE VEHICLE WILL SHORTLY STALL SEVERAL TIMES AFTERWARDS. LEAVING YOU WITH NO POWER STEERING. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND OTHERS. THIS IS HAPPENED TO ME MANY TIMES ON PUBLIC ROADS AND EVEN HIGHWAYS. I WOULD HAVE ALMOST CRASHED IF I HAD NOT NOTICED THAT I HAD LOST POWER STEERING. I HAVE ALSO HEARD COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER PEOPLE WHO SAY THE SAME ABOUT THERE DODGE PICKUP OF SIMILAR YEAR. I FEEL LIKE THIS SHOULD BE A BIG CONCERN, AND I SHOULD BE DOING MORE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR
