Read complaints for DODGE RAM WAGON (1998)
As we were driving down the road the van starting making whirring sound and starting lose speed. We heard a loud pop. A car beeped and my husband looked in the side mirror and saw fire coming from under the van. We quickly pulled over and jumped out. The fuel line was leaking and the van engulfed in flames. We total lost the van and everything in it. We purchased the van from a local church which never had any issues with it. It was inspected in december of 2016 and had only been driven a few times without any complications. We had read that there is a recall for 1998 dodge ram 3500 trucks with a 8.0l v-10 engine or a 5.9l v-8 heavty duty gasoline enginewhere an exhaust system heat shield attaching screw is tool close to the underbody fuel line. The line can rub against the screw, possibly causing fuel leakage. To us, the van has the same engine but the shell/exterior is a van instead of a truck.
The consumerhas been experiencing problems with clutch assembly: drive clutch. Also, while driving, wheels locked up.the manufacturer has yet to be contacted.
Sway bar was replaced twice. Sometimes it sounded like something was loose. Dealer would adjust it. When making a hard right turn left tire rubbed against sway bar.
