Both front tie rods were completely worn out at under 40,000 miles and had to be replaced. This is well under the industry standard of 65,00-80,000 and presents a significant risk to the driver and passengers. This vehicle is so poorly engineered that Dodge should offer to give all customers new vehicles for free. There are way too many issues in the engineering of this vehicle.
