Dodge steering problems

Owners have filed 10,549 complaints with NHTSA about the steering on Dodge vehicles — 7% of everything reported about the brand, across 81 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Dodge RAM 2500, worst in 2006.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
