| I was recently notified that the tow rating of the dodge dakota r/t only was lowered from 6400 lbs to 2000 lbs. i found out on a website. i contacted chrysler and was told this was true, that it was lowered in feb 99 and i would receive a letter in the mail regarding my options. they would not tell me why it was lowered. i asked if it was a safety or performance issue. they would not say. it took 2 months to get the letter and all it was a yellow card to put in my owner's manual saying that the tow capacity was now 2000 lbs. all the literature i have along with my owner's manual says 6400 lbs and apparently, chrysler is still advertising 6400 lbs. | |||
