1990 Dodge Dakota review from North America
"A piece of crap"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transfer case has been out and replaced 3 times out twiced replaced--am having trouble finding one to replace it this time when out the first time at about 40,000 miles--DODGE would not fix it said that was not cover under warranty. Have had to put in starter, and general maintenace the transfer case is the only real problem---BUT WHAT A PROBLEM--
General comments?
This truck sell gets looks---looks good, but I can't keep a transfer case in it. in ohio it doesn't snow that much and it has not been used enough to go out. it was replaced by a dodge dealer when replaced. I am so upset with it that I will never buy another dodge. the transfer case cost about $1,000.00 and that is not counting the price to put it on.
