I wish they'd make that recall cover the Dakotas from '97 and on. We had to replace the ball joints in my mom's '99 last summer.

Yup, just great. My Pile of shit was made in 98 so no dice for me. But right now it doesn't matter. The last phone call I got from them was that they didn't even knwo where my truck was. They had the bill and everything, but they physically couldn't find the truck. So yeah, Maybe I will wait for a good recall for me to come out to have them look harder. LOL

We have a 2000 Dakota as well at work. The recall is not official yet. The dealership was pissed off that they put it on the news and they haven't even publically put out the recall yet. We will know sometime next week whether it becomes official or not.

At least Chrysler is doing something about it. They didn't have to from the sounds of it. GM with their stupid exploding trucks in the 80's lost me so much respect for that company that you couldn't give me a GM truck now. A company to buck up and cover the 60+ million to fix this is respectable if they weren't forced.

Does anyone know what the difference is between the '97-99's versus the '00-03's? I sure would have thought that the early ball joint problems would have been corrected in the later models but I guess not.

Yeah I have heard about this. Unfortionantly I have heard that it is only for the 4X4's which pisses me off because they both have problems... as well as being only 00 up. I have heard though that it is only 00 up because ones before that were a different style. Either way it is long over due and it should be for all dakotas. I am hoping that a recall should come out soon for the rest. AJ i also think that if one comes out again that they should reinburse you for your expenses.
I will try to keep you informed as i get informed by my other fourm... don't worry I still visit this fourm just don't post much any more.
Arc I would take it off your hands but how much would shipping be to 37341?

how the hell would you ship something like that.

Re: All you Dodge Truck guys (AJ)

I hate Dodge. Just thought I would dig this thread up and say that. I am seriously thinking about just finding my truck at the dealership lot and driving it home without them knowing. LOL

I just called 5 min ago trying to get a total and tell them I am getting my truck back this week and now, again. They can't find it. FUCKING MORONS! Oh, but this time it's better for me. They can't find a record of my truck ever being there now! LOL No bill or anything. So maybe it's time to just pick it up and see what happens.

Re: All you Dodge Truck guys (AJ)

Hell yeah! They don't know where it is and have no record of it being there. You must have amnesia and already paid the bill! I would just pick it up and take it home. The worst that would happen is that they send you a bill later.

Re: All you Dodge Truck guys (AJ)

The only thing I can think of is you "stealing" your truck back. If that isn't it, I am totally lost too.
