If you don't me asking, what did you get for your Dodge?

And what kind of issues were you having with it?

It's realy a sore subject but im getting over it,here we go.First i had a passinger side wheel not rolling strait it wobbled.The dealer replaced the hub and rotor on the rear axel, i also told them it was running rough when i held 52mph with the trans locked up, felt like i needed to change the spark plugs.The dealer said there was nothing wrong but they reflashed with the hard starting update still had the same problem so i put it out of mind.then we had a air diversion door replaced in the heater box under the dash the dash made a buzzing sound viberating got that finaly fixed.I then had a recall for the fuel tank rollover valve i told them i still had issuese with the engine running rough it was checked again and they said there was nothing wrong.I left the truck set for a week when i started it i put it in gear and it wouldnt move the trans acted like it was low on fluid but it wasint the converter was draining down and needed to run a while to fill back up.I took it to the dealer and they siad there was nothing wrong with it

I had a 2000 dodge 2500 quadcab 4x4 with a auto before and had no problems with it.I traded it for a 2003 duramax 2500 cruecab 4x4 that was a good truck.I decided to trade up for a 2006 cummins 2500 4x4 just a damn lemon!

I got $33,500 for my dodge and im glad the damn thing is gone.I liked the cummins but that one sucked!

Bummer. My brother has had three Dodges, and they were all great trucks. But his newest one (2002, which he bought brand new) has turned out to be a lemon. He's going to get rid of it for an 06 or 07.

The dealerships, IMO, are no good. They need to change their attitudes soon.

WElcome to the site, and congrats on the new gm!!!!

Sorry to hear about your bad luck with the dodge, now mater what brand they should do what they are supposed to for the amount of coin we shell out for these trucks. there are good and bad ones from everymake i think it really is on the dealer on making things right with the bad ones!!!
