Owner Complaints (2)
Your front right wheel completely detached from your truck while driving on the highway at 45 mph due to snowy road conditions. All the lug nuts had come off the wheel, and you'll need a new wheel, rim, hub assembly, and lug nuts to repair it. This happened with no warning lights or alerts, and you're concerned because you've seen similar recalls for other Ram trucks from the same year.
