Chrysler recalling 76K Dodge Ram trucks

Chrysler said some trucks with diesel engines and a hydroboost brake system could be equipped with a power steering reservoir cap with excessive vent pressure levels

Many 3rd gens have high vent pressures as well..

Um, they just figured this one out? Modified the cap on my '03 YEARS ago so it wouldn't build up excessive pressure.

One has to laugh don't they, otherwise you would cry. Risking getting sued over what would be nothing if they had just kept using the same cap from say 2009. I always say if it aint broke don't fix it.
