NHTSA complaint #770471, filed 2002-12“I have replaced so many tires on this van I have took it to be lined up and they tell me that it cant be lined up because there is a problem underneath and I have contacted traid dodge and they tell me that is not under warranty but I think it should be because I don't know if this van was wrecked when I purchased it.
