| Description of the problem | I was driving on a 2 lane asphalt road at approximately 55mph. I was crossing a bridge and when i got to the end, there was a low spot in the roadway. When the truck hit the bump, the front end started shaking violently and uncontrollably and i had to hit the brakes and slow to 25 mph before it quit. On 12/17/2010 my wife was driving this vehicle at 70 mph on i-35. She said she hit an expansion joint in the roadway and the truck started shaking violently and she could not control it and went off into the center median before bringing it under control. |
