MY HUSBAND AND I TOTALED OUR 2010 DODGE RAM 3500 LESS THAN 24 HRS AFTER PICK UP THE TRUCK FROM THE LYTHIA DODGE WHICH THEY HAD FOR 5 DAYS STRAIGHT PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT. FOR THE STEERING, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THE BRAKES. IN 18MOS MY TRUCK WAS IN THE SHOP 6 TIMES, FOR REPAIRS {UNACCEPTABLE}. WE WERE DRIVING ON A ARTERIAL ST AT ABOUT 35, WHEN I HEARD A SNAP. WE SUDDENLY WENT INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHERE WE SIDESWIPED A SM SUV. WENT THRU TWO FENCES AND CRASHED INTO A HUGE SHOP TRAVELING ABOUT 210 YARDS. MY HUSBAND WAS CITED FOR NEG 2. HE STATED HE CAME TO IN THE SHOP, THE OFFICER REPORTED HE FEEL ASLEEP. MY VEHICLE WAS A TOTAL LOSS. THE AUTO SOURCE FROM THE INS. FOR THE PAYOFF , HAD A LIST OF RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE ONE OF THEM WAS FOR THE TIE-ROD. WE RECALLED SEEING THE TRUCKS TIE-ROD HAD BEEN BROKEN AT THE SCENE. SO I TRIED TO GET MY INS TO INVESTIGATE. THEY SAID HIS TICKET WAS WHAT THEY HAD TO USE FOR DECIDING FAULT .SO I CONTACTED CHRYSLER THEY WOULDN'T TALK TO ME THEY GAVE ME A CARE NO AND SAID AN INVESTIGATOR WOULD COME IN 5 DAYS, HE CAME AND GOT ALL THE PICTS THEY WANTED DOWNLOADED THE BRAIN HISTORY ,EVERYTHING THEY COULD WANT. THEN TOLD ME HE COULD ONLY GIVE THIS INFO TO CHRYSLER, DENYING ME ANY OF IT. LATER CHRYSLER INFORMED ME BY LETTER THAT THE TIE-ROD FAILURE AGE WAS FROM THE ACCIDENT NOT THE CAUSE OF IT. I ASK IF THE WOULD CONSIDER THE WORK ORDERS THAT LYTHIA HAD GAVE ME {THAT CLEARLY STATES THEY WERE BEYOND SPECIFICATION, NEVER WARNING ME OF THE DANGERS} AND
