According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration,
Chrysler is recalling model year 2008-2011
Dodge Ram 4500 and 5500 Heavy Duty trucks. The culprit is apparently the left ball stud on the tie rod that could weaken and potentially fracture, which could result in a loss of steering control.
As NHTSA plainly states, "loss of steering control of the vehicle could increase the risk of a crash." And that's a bad thing. Directions on contacting Chrysler or NHTSA can be found
after the break, and, of course, the automaker will be fixing affected models free of charge.
