Really just frustrated and upset. I've spent so much money recently and just having a rough go.
I have a 2015 Ram 1500 w/ EPS.
I have had to replace ball joints, and recently the RH axle. Monday I took the truck in again for an intermittent clicking when turning left or right that the shop couldnt replicate. Took it back home after the shop couldn't figure it out and said it would be safe to drive the next day.
Started the truck yesterday morning and had no power steering!! Fast forward to this morning I tried again and had steering again. Turned off the truck and restarted it... NO STEERING! Called my local dealership Anderson Motors and they want me to bring it in to replace the rack and pinion. An almost $3000 piece... on A 6 YEAR OLD TRUCK?! Absolutely ridiculous this is happening. I told them if I bring the truck in they can keep it. The brakes will need to be replaced soon. The LH axle will likely need to be replaced too. I've been told the tie rods will need to be replaced also.
I've spent more money on this vehicle than any other before it. Again... just really frustrated with life right now.
Someone made a joke about the front ends falling out of Dodges and I laughed... but now I can agree!
Where is the TSB's? Recalls?
I suspect more and more of these electronic problems will be popping up.
