Description of the problem	At speeds over 50 miles per hour if the truck hits a pothole or minor bump in the road, such as bridge seams, the front of the vehicle shakes violently. Occurs continuously. The dealer stated"it has the off road package which makes it unstable?" my mechanic repeatedly balanced and rotated the tires but the vehicle still shakes until the speed is lowered below 40 mph. He has not found any defective parts but at the rate of shaking it is bound to break front end parts. Occured more often when the truck was brand new and decreased as the tires wore. After the tires were replaced the problem is critical. The new tires are the same as the original equipment.
