2006 Dodge Viper owner complaints

At approximately 9:50 am on sunday, december 2, 2012, dr. X left his garage and proceeded past his gate in his 2006 Dodge viper. He turned north to view the lake and turned around at the end of the road (1/2 mile) and headed back to go for a short ride in the country. As he passed the gate (72745) at about 30 miles per hour, the left side of the car started to come around and all traction was lost. Dr. X turned into the slide to no avail. The car went airborne to the right over a 2 -3 foot ditch and up the embankment before it stopped in the woods causing damage to the vehicle and personal injury. A mechanic from springdale Chrysler was passing by. After dr. X described what happened as he was driving up a steep hill on a straight section of the road, the mechanic inspected the vehic

There are two recalls on this vehicle, r13 and ve4 but I have been unable to get these completed because the dealer and Dodge state that they do not have the parts. This has been going on for well over 1 year. I have called many times to both the dealer and Dodge but all I get is we have no estimated time for these parts. I do not feel comfortable driving the car without these two recalls being completed. Is there anything you can to do help in getting this two recalls completed? Thank you

I started hearing a clunk that seemed to come from the passenger side rear wheel well when starting from a stop. I pulled all 4 tires off to grease the car. On the rear passenger side, it appears that the rubber boot on the suspension knuckle is leaking and may be torn. I can't be sure at this time if the suspension knuckle is damaged. Although my vehicle is out of warranty, the mileage is very low (10,300 miles). I started to research on the internet for any known issues and came across the NHTSA investigation on viper suspension. I will have to have my vehicle inspected to get a better understanding of the problem I have. I do not know if the knuckle is damaged or if the only issue is the leaking rubber boot on the knuckle. I also understand that your & chryslers findings I

I got a recall notice but cannot find a dealership within a reasonable distance that is willing to perform the recall work

Driver side door failed to open when battery power was out. Door was opened to investigate and it was discovered that the cable to the door latch mechanism had a fatigue failure at the cable to handle junction. When this condition occurs there is nothing that allows one to exit the vehicle. This is not a case of misuse but of a poor design. In a serious accident where battery power is lost the affected door can not be opened. This failure is most likely to be the driver door as it is most frequently used. Any follow-up investigation of trapped occupants is unlikely to discover this particularly if a fire melts the door components. I suspect that the door mechanism is likely common to many other makes and models and thus far more important for investigation.
