My Dodge Ram 1500 has a known recall P77 on the rear pinion nut that the technician at the dealership said was faulty on my vehicle and that parts would be ordered to resolve the defect. I was later notified by the dealership that the parts were now available and to bring the vehicle in for repair. When the vehicle was brought into the dealership for repair I was told that the repair had already been completed and they would not do the repair as the technician had told me was needed in accordance with the recall. This a matter of a dealership not fixing a known problem not a specific incident of a vehicle accident. There is already an existing recall that is not being honored.

The limited slip clutch retaining clips have broke. This has left metal in the rear differential and the safety of driving the vehicle in question. The repair is going to be approx. $1500. Reports with nhsta have stated the driveshaft could separate from the connection at the differential, generally at speeds over 50mph, causing the vehicle to go into a spin.

My truck started shaking aggressively 3-4 year ago at speeds around 50 mph and over, I tried new tires and that did not work. After receiving my second recall I took my truck to bill stanford Dodge-Chrysler here in talladega al to have it fixed with the recall. They admitted the pinion nut was loose and they said they tightened it and that I needed new tires on the rear and that should fix it, the tire dealer said I did not need new rear tires that I should have several years left on them but I told him what bill stanford said so he put new tires on the back but that had no affect on the vibrating and shaking of the truck. Now I receive another recall stating " the lack of this adhesive patch could allow the rear axle pinion nut to loosen and/or the rear drive shaft to separate from the rear axle, going on to state this could cause a crash without warning or the real axle to seize and separate the drive shaft causing a loss of motive power. I have a good truck except for the rear end which shakes and vibrates aggressively but I can get no help from the local dealer here in talladega al. All I am asking is that they fix it to its original state and live up to the safety recall. I can not afford a new vehicle and do not want to sue or seek punitive damages, I would just like my truck to be fixed in an honest fashion. Thank you for any help.
