You may have heard that the Dodge Viper is a car that wants to kill you, but in at least two cases that might actually be true.
Thats because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is currently investigating model year 2005 and 2006 Dodge Vipers because of two complaints that the rear suspension knuckle separated, which caused the drivers to lose control and crash.
One of the complaints says while driving approximately 50 mph, the knuckle assembly failed and the vehicle stopped suddenly. The driver crashed into a concrete divider.
NHTSA hasnt issued a recall so far, but one could be issued.
