 Description of the problemWhile driving under normal conditions truck began shaking violently while traveling about 60 mph and striking bump in road. Truck began to shake so violently that items were falling from visors and items were falling from various storage locations in vehicle. I attempted to gradually slow down and problem actually became worse, until i achieved about 25-30 mph. This is commonly called the "death wobble" and to my understanding dodge is aware of this . This has occurred on 3 occasions and has caused me to nearly loose control of truck. The first occurrence was so severe i actually called 911 center and asked them to come and check highway, due what i had thought was a to buckle in the pavement. The truck at that time had 30k miles or so. After this occurred i assumed it was due to road condition. Recently when it has occurred again and i began investigating its cause,now realizing its the vehicle, and not the road causing the shaking. This could be deadly as vehicle becomes uncontrollable.
