Description of the problem	While traveling down roadway approx 45 mph, vehicle began to wobble really bad in front, felt steering was really loose or nonexistent. Pulled over and found nothing wrong, vehicle drove fine afterwards. Several days later, while driving approx 65mph on interstate, heard and felt a "pop" in the front as if i had hit something - looking back i did not see anything. If you ever hit a bird on the interstate, this is what it felt like; however there was no indications that i had hit anything, shortly after i began to experience the wobble again - immediately pulled over thinking my tire may have blown - there was no indication of anything. Today, i took my truck in the shop for the recall (l16) left tie rod; i was told it was ok after inspection and there was no problem; however, for $1383 they tell me they will replace and fix my steering gear box because it is leaking. On the 13th of april after experiencing the wobble, i crawled underneath my truck and found no such evidence of anything; after leaving the dealer and crawling under truck, i noticed where there is leakage at the steering gear box now. After searching net for replacement parts i began to see all issues with these related parts. Dodge should really look at this entire system as they could be tied together. I will repair the vehicle but i am really shocked that dodge has not done anything about these complaints with this wobble even after repairs. I don't want to spend that much money if wobble continues after repair. Current mileage on vehicle is 96103 - i have owned this truck since new.
