This is the 3rd time this happened to me. The first time I was driving around 55 and the truck started to shake so bad I could not actually hold onto the steering wheel, and I made it to the side of the road. I thought was a flat tire and I pulled over to find nothing wrong. The second was bad as it shook so violently, I was unable to make it to the side of the road, so I hit the brakes in the middle of traffic to stop. This 3rd time I happen to be traveling 65 mph on the interstate in PA and hit a small bump and all of the sudden the truck felt like it was bouncing off of the road. I hit the brakes to slow down and drove to the side and into a field. I purchased tie rods and actually the entire front suspension. This was the worst shaking I have ever felt in 45 years of driving. This is going to get me killed when this happens on the road. Please help.

I RECEIVED A VE5 LATE LIFE EMISSION PERFORMANCE DEGRADATION RECALL IN JANUARY 2021. I HAD THE RECALL PERFORMED ON 1.27/2021 AT RAZZARI DODGE, MERCED. THEY INSTALLED A NEW CAT CONVERTER AND EXHAUST MANIFOLD. WHEN I GOT MY TRUCK BACK, I HAD AN CEL ERROR CODE P2271 O2 SENSOR. I HAD TO PAY $707.74 AND $978.98 TO GET THE TRUCK RUNNING. I HAD NO PREVIOUS CEL. I THINK THEY BROKE THE WIRING HARNESS OR O2 SENSORS WHEN THEY PERFORMED THE RECALL. . I THINK THE VE5 RECALL REPAIR, SHOULD MAKE THE ENTIRE EMISSIONS SYSTEM FUNCTION, INCLUDING THE CONTROL ELECTRONICS.

I TOOK IT TO THE DODGE DEALER FOR A RECALL NOTICE I RECEIVED, THE RECALL WAS FOR THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD TO BE REPLACED. THE WORK WAS COMPLETED, I TOOK THE TRUCK HOME AND ASSUMED THINGS WERE FINE. IN JANUARY OF THIS YEAR I WENT UNDER THE TRUCK TO SEE ABOUT A OIL LEAK I WAS HAVING A PROBLEM WITH, I NOTICED THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS DIRTY LOOKING AND HAD SCRATCHES ON IT. IT HAD A BROWNISH KIND OF LIGHT FILM ON IT. I DID NOT LOOK LIKE A NEW ONE. I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER REPAIR SHOP FOR THEIR OPINION. THEY COULDN'T BE SURE BUT THEY SAID IT LOOKS LIKE AN OLD ONE ALSO, THEY INSPECTED THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND TOLD ME IT HAS RUST STAINS ON IT AND DOES NOT LOOK LIKE A NEW ONE. I AM IN NEED OF SOMEONE TO REFER ME TO AN EXPERT SO WE CAN DETERMINE IF WEATHER OR NOT THE DEALER ACTUALLY REPLACED THE THE PARTS OR NOT. CAN YOU HELP PLEASE.

IT'S A RANDOM OCCURRENCE. WHILE I'M STARTING IT, I HAVE TO RESTOP WHEN I'M DRIVING NO WARNING, IT'S A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THAT ADDS A HUGE DANGER WHEN YOUR TRUCK DIES IN MOTION IT'S A BIG TRUCK IT'S A WORK TRUCK WHICH MAKES IT EVEN MORE HORRIFYING.!! PLEASE TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY THIS IS A HUGE DANGER I CAN'T STRESS HOW IMPORTANT THIS IS AND I'M SURE ALL THE ALL OF THEM ARE

THE AIR BAG LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING OFF AND ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING. AFTER A FEW WEEKS, THE LIGHT JUST STAYED ON AND REMAINS ON. WHEN MY TRUCK WAS IN FOR SERVICE, I WAS INFORMED THE OCR MODULE HAD FAILED AND WAS QUOTED APPROXIMATELY $750 TO REPAIR. SEEMS TO ME THIS IS A NON-SERVICEABLE SAFETY COMPONENT THAT HAS FAILED. I HOPE THIS SYSTEM FAILURE IS A RECALL ISSUE.

I HAVE A 2010 DODGE RAM 2500 ST. THE VEHICLE IGNITION WON'T ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO START SOME TIMES. ALSO WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE TRUCK CUTS OFF AND I HAVE TO RESTART IT IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. IVE HAD TO ROLL TO THE SIE OF THE ROAD ON MUTIPLE OCCASSIONS UNTIL I CAN GET IT RESTARTED, LUCKILY I HAVENT HAD AN ACCIDENT YET. I GOOGLED THE ISSUE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE WIN MODULE ON THE DODGE VEHICLES YET THERE HASNT BEEN A RECALL INITIATED. IT'S TURNING INTO A DAILY OCCURRACE WITH THIS.
