I OWN A 2008 DODGE RAM 2500 WITH THE FAULTY TIE ROD ENDS (RECALL L16 ACCORDING TO CHRYSLER) WHICH I FOUND OUT ON MY OWN NOT FROM CHRYSLER. I'VE ATTEMPTED TO GET THE PROBLEM RESOLVED SEVERAL TIMES FROM SEVERAL DIFFERENT DODGE DEALERS HOWEVER NONE OF THEM HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX MY TRUCK. I WAS TOLD THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN ANYTHING WILL BE AVAILABLE AND HOPE FOR THE BEST THAT IT DOESN'T BREAK. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE THE LONGER THIS DRAGS OUT AND IS TO THE POINT OF I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THE TRUCK. *TT
