I have a 1999 dodge ram 2500 4 x 4 quad cab with the v-10 manual transmission. Since I purchased it new in march 1999, I have twice replaced the rr track bar ($200 part, not including labor) and the steering intermediate shaft ($89 part, not including labor). This truck wanders all over the road and a heavy clunk is felt in the steering wheel. The dealer mechanics keep telling me "that's typical of this vehicle," but there is no recall. Why?
