- Published by: Transport Canada \(Canada\)
- Campaign number: 2013395
- Manufacturer's number: N62
- Reported: 2013\-11\-07
- Component: Steering
- Notification type: Safety TC
- Units potentially affected: 11000

## What is wrong

A safety defect may exist in aftermarket steering linkage equipment sold as service replacement parts for 2500 and 3500 4x4 pickup trucks.  If the drag link assemblies in question were installed improperly, the left tie rod ball stud may fracture, potentially resulting in a loss of vehicle control and a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Chrysler will notify owners of all 2003\-2008 Dodge Ram heavy duty trucks \(other than those covered by recall 2013\-397 \(N49\)\) since those vehicles could potentially have had the affected linkages installed during service.  Owners will be instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer for inspection and repair if required. Note: This recall supersedes recall 2009\-019 \(H46\).  Parts replaced under the previous campaign will also need to be replaced under this campaign.
