seth - sry to hear about that. I have had similar problems with my dealers here in AZ. it always seems like the dealer is trying to rip you off (well, i guess it seems that way because they are).

Well let me tell you deling with ram (dodge) is useless, I have an extended warranty and the y wanted to carger me 450 to do an innner tie rod and a rack and pinoin . cause they clam i hit sumthing. Mind you that $450 is $300 over my warranty deductable. After making numourous phone calls and complaing and taking my truck to two diffrent shops. i finilly got it cover for my dedectable, but it was noo tahnks to ram (dodge) what so ever. Dont waste your time with them trying to fix sumthing is my point.

both the parking brake and rear brakes are drums. when you apply the parking brake all that's happening is there is a cable applying pressure to the regular rear brakes. its not a separate system. its the same. and they are drums in the rear.

French fries with cheese makes sense en esti!!!
LOL i am a Poutine Québecer!!!
the TSB is only for the 3.7L
and if you have a 2005-2011 its a rear drum and if you have the shudder while using the rear foot brake you are sure the shudder is from the rear. have you tried to re-tork them with a torque wrench?!? i think the right torke was 160-170 lbs range am i right?

TSB's do not have to be corrected like Recalls do if you do not have a warranty. The dealer/manufacturer may choose to do the repair if it is a known issue, but unless it is a mandated recall it does not have to be covered if you are out of warranty.
