At next exit, operator took vehicle to repair shop. Technician found right front wheel bearing assembly worn, allowing tire/wheel assembly to be moved 1-2'' from vertical.

A total failure in traffic at speed might have resulted in a loss of handling/braking that might have caused or worsened an accident. Failed part is available. …”
NHTSA complaint #10164931, filed 2006-08, 88,000 miles“Lack of rear seat head rests in 2002 ram 1500 quad cab. Rear seat passengers seem to be at risk of a head injury in case of an accident. Rear seat passengers heads' are on the glass due to the lack of rear seat head rests. I believe there is enough of a safety concern to warrant the retrofit of the current year rear seat head rests into the 2002 model year vehicles to mitigate the obvious risk of head injury to rear seat passengers.”
