 Description of the problemVehicle wobbles violently if you hit a bump in the road traveling at speeds between 40 to 75. It shakes to the point where i need to slow down sometimes to 15 mph before it stops. Other drivers see this and they slow or pull off the road to give me room. I have taken the truck to the dealer and they find nothing wrong. I have changed all tires, rims, shocks and steering stabilizer and still the problem is there. The truck has 57k miles on it now and this problem started approx 2 years ago and i have been trying to fix it ever since. The dealer advises there is nothing wrong with the truck but i am certain that it is something mechanical. A google search revealed several others who have experienced this same problem. There was one blog that stated that the stock tracking arm is the culprit and must be replaced. It further advised not to replace it with another stock tracking arm as they continue to be lees than appropriate for this truck. My truck is back at the dealer at this time and this information was forwarded to the service advisor. I am hopeful that this replacement of what is being described as inadequate for its application will not be the burden of the vehicle owners. I am assuming that the replacement parts would be checked and their design standard be elevated to perform on their designed application. This violent shaking is without a doubt a safety issue not only to the operator and passengers but also to other motorist in close proximity. The last incident occurred on the date listed below which is the same day it was taken back to the dealer. This condition has been occurring continuously for the past 2 years. Some incidents not as severe as others but still a safety concern.
