Lost control of 2001 dodge durango on broken arrow expressway between harvard and lewis , heading west there has been several times that this has happened, not all at the same location.

I own a 2001 dodge durango rt in which I have been complaining to the service department of the dealership since taking ownership of the vehicle in october 22, 2001 that the steering was not aligned or did not feel right to drive. They claimed everything was ok. On january 23, 2003 I went in for routine oilchange and check up with the same complaint. Now they say that the truck is not drivable and needs a new rack and pinion. Can you check if this is a continuos complaint about these trucks.
