Also refer to NHTSA complaint 10002464. I was driving my '99 Dodge Ram and all 5 lugs on the right front wheel sheared off and the wheel came off and careened across a parking lot. The same wheel fell off the same way in 2002.

All four rear wheels are bent. The only people until now to touch this vehicle have been Dodge dealerships(sandoval in nm. They also eventually fixed the speed control which would add 5 to 20 mph to a setting at any time. Very dangerous.
