| Description of the problem | 2004 dodge ram 2500 4wd. Purchased vehicle november 2004. Upon drive home, at speeds of 60 mph and above, a vibration throughout the vehicle was felt. Contacted local dealer who kept the truck for 2 days. After second day of test driving, 70 miles put on by dealer, was told that complaint could not be duplicated. I was told by servicing dealer that it was something that i had to deal with. This vibration is beginning to cause unsafe driving conditions at these speeds.
