Another Dodge Ram Recall

Their so called "fix" for the liberty is a joke and will not stop the carnage. That recall will end just like the Ford tires and GM pickup fuel tanks, costing them massive amounts of money in law suits.

"Carnage"? :R

Help me understand something, if a vehicle under goes and PASSES the Federal Gov safety standers at the time it is built then how the $#%^ can anyone file a law suit? I know they do but it does not make it right. DamnLire/Chrysler was given the green light on the fuel systems in those vehicles, so unless DCX fudged the results (like a different manufacture did, cough...cough...GM) then any recall should be on the Governments dime.

The so called fix as you put it is to add a receiver hitch to help protect the fuel tank. From what I can find all fires were in crashes that involved very high speeds. Kind of like the Crown Vic Police cars, their tanks also have ruptured and caused "carnage" when rear ended at highway speeds.

Sorry but unless you want to live in a bubble and never go outside there will always be the chance the you are not going to make it back home. It's called LIFE!!!

PS. Not sure Chrysler/Fiat could even get sued, they didn't build those vehicles DamnLire/Chrysler now know as "The Old Car Company" did. Remember the Feds forced GM and Chrysler in to bankruptcy then created the new Companies. Will be interesting to see if Chrysler/Fiat would be sued or if DamnLire/Chrysler would be sued.
