Default Ring gear bolts broken 2007 1500 2WD

Hello,

New to this forum but not to Ram trucks. This is my second one I have owned new. Two days ago at 36,090 miles 7 bolts holding the ring gear sheared off and took off some teeth from the tone ring & damaged the ABS sensor.

The Dodge dealer I bought it from is the only one who ever serviced it but of course they say it is out of warranty. I am trying to resolve a solution with Dodge directly.

Any idea how these bolts could self destruct and who is responsible for this? By the way this is the 5.7 HEMI with 3.55 ratio.

Thank you.
