Quality Control ????????

Well, my "baby" is alive and sitting in St. Louis, but the dealer just got off the phone with me and says that they have some "quality control issues" with a bunch of trucks down there Anybody have any ideas on what's happening?

Re:Quality Control ????????

I don't know if this is related, but some guy over at TDR was saying a Dodge rep told him they were pulling a larger proportion than normal of trucks out of the pipeline for thorough quality checks.<br><br>If true, I figure it could mean Dodge is worried for some reason OR is trying to head off problems early so they don't have to worry. : ;D <br><br>Best to y'all<br>Bill

Re:Quality Control ????????

Was the truck built in St. Louie?<br><br>Earlier, they had a crap load of problems with the 2003 1500's from there. And had lots full of them they could not ship until they did a &quot;recall&quot; right there.<br><br>I thought most of the 2500 and 3500 were built in Saltillo but Dodge says &quot;some&quot; of the 2500 are built in St. Louis<br><br>I for one am glad mine speaks Spanish and English both, not just St. Louian! <br><br>Hunter
