I was backing out of my driveway with the wheel turned slightly to the right. My truck felt as though it had shifted into 4wd. I stopped, moved forward approximately five feet. Stopped and backed five feet. I then heard an air leak. I looked under my truck and found the tie rod had disengaged, dropped into the inside of the rim, and punctured the rim. My truck was disabled at this time and I called for a tow to the dealer. I researched and found this to be an issue with the 2008-11 ram truck. There was a recall (l16). This is an extremely dangerous failure for anyone moving forward at normal speeds.
