21st Century Pinto Like Case: Dodge Axle Failures

[consideringtitan]

From DTW. I know it may seem I'm trying to start something but, this is a big safety concern for me since I currently own one built in April 03. Hopefully, the Titan doesn't have any safety issues.

For those with Ram rear axles breaking and for those wanting to read about it...

To help tie some threads together and tie information together, I am starting this post.
