| Description of the problem | Going down i94 i drove over a very small pot hole and the truck started to violently shake almost causing me to loss control. I slowed down to 45 on a posted 70mile freeway during rush hour to get it under control. It has happened 2 times scents. The truck is at the shop now. If u look at the internet there are many people with is problem called death wobble and it is not a easy fix dodge needs to be held responsible before someone gets hurt. |
