I noticed that when steering was turned hard left or right and you moved forward, there was a clunk sound. I took into dealer, they found nothing, looking at steering rack in pinion. I noticed cracks in the welds on fram where the control arms are. That very next business day, I received recall for cracked weld on track barbracket, I have other areas that have cracked welds. I am a tool and die maker, I have been trying to get ram to take the truck to see the problem, but have been getting run around. I feel this is a serious safety issue that could cause loss if life. My power wagon was one of the first built, I ordered it.

Ships from the factory with drag link adjuster retainer nuts that do not fit properly and are not fastened tightly. When I inspected the drag link adjuster after 30,000 miles, the passenger side retaining nut had completely backed off from contacting the adjuster sleeve. If not addressed, this could have resulted in loss of steering while the vehicle was in motion.....updated 12/30/15

A week after I bought the truck the problems began, the steering started rattling every time I turned left and on a few occasions it got extremely hard to steer the truck, they rebuilt the front axle once then finally replaced the whole front axle assembly and wiring. The truck shakes bad at 65+ with the factory firestone tires I replaced them. The A/C vent controls stopped working the motors and heater core had to be replaced. The accelerator/throttle is extremely delayed almost to the point of being dangerous and when you let off the throttle the truck violently bangs into gear. The service def light came on yesterday 12/2/14 with 3/4 full tank. I just reached 8500 miles and these trucks are dangerous I hope chrysler fixes these nightmare problems.
Driving on idaho highway 21, speed limit is 45 with slower speeds required around corners due to the windy road. I was traveling south at approx mile post 26 about to enter a sharp right hand corner and suddenly the steering wheel was completely loose and rotated without making any changes in the truck direction. Once a realized I could not turn I quickly slammed on the brakes and came to a stop on the opposite shoulder. I basically crossed the oncoming traffic lane and stopped just before exiting the roadway. I was very lucky this corner had a small turnout as most of the corners do not. Once the vehicle stopped I shut off the engine. I immediately noticed the steering wheel was free spinning with an obvious mechanical failure. I restarted the engine with the same symptoms. I was able to move the truck slowly out of oncoming traffic and again shut the engine off. The front tires were a slight left angle and would not turn when the steering wheel was turned. Once again, the steering wheel is free spinning like it has no mechanical connection to the actual steering linkage. I consider this a huge safety issue and feel very fortunate no one was in the oncoming lanes and also there was a small turnout so the truck did not exit the roadway and drop the approx 20 feet into the creek below. Truck has been towed to the dealer in boise idaho.(larry miller dodge) it is sunday so I will find out tomorrow what went wrong. ..updated 08/11/14 *bf updated 08/25/14 *bf updated 09/2/2014 *js *tr updated 05/17/2017
