 Description of the problemI purchased this vehicle from a used car dealer in clanton, alabama in april 2014. I was driving to my mom's, who lives in mississippi when i came upon a bridge on the interstate while passing a 18 wheeler. When entering the bridge there was a small bump up and when the front wheels of the truck hit the bump the front of the truck started bouncing (death bounce or roll) uncontrollable. I had to cut off the 18 wheeler that i was passing and pulled to the side of the interstate and come to a complete stop for it to stop. It happened 4 more times before i got to my destination and it has happened on numerous occasions since and causing me to almost wreck each time. This is a very dangerous problem with this vehicle. You have no control over the steering while it is doing this it just bounces you all over the road. I have talked to a mechanic and he said it was the entire front end of all dodge trucks that was causing this problem and had to be replaced. I wish to have an investigation on this matter, please. With only 82k miles on this truck the entire frt end should not be bad!! This problem, i was told by the mechanic was a defect from factory and should have been a recall on the entire frt suspension not just the tie rod, because the tie rod is not correcting the death bounce/roll problem with this trucks. I have a young son and a grand baby who has to ride in this vehicle and i do not feel safe driving this truck with my self in it. I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you very much.
