Description of the problem	Deathwobble, traveling down interstate and hit a bump, the truck started shaking so violently and getting progressively worse. The only way to get it to stop was to hit the brakes and slow down very fast. With 18 wheelers all over the road when it happened i was almost rear ended on the interstate. I have never been so terrified of driving a vehicle in my life! My family was with me. Dodge has come out with an "upgrade kit and new heavier duty steering box" hmmmm... Wonder why? Because they are completely aware of the issue and there is no quick fix. I am told i need to replace ball joints, tie rods, steering box, steering stabilizer and get stiffer shocks and or springs. Meanwhile, $5000. 00 later, it may work? Maybe?
