| Description of the problem | Starting 3 years ago my truck started doing the death wobble at speeds of 35 and up when ever you hit any bump in the road, the wheel would shake so violently it would cause the loss of control for steering. The first time it happened to me the truck went into a ditch and threw me into the window, it has continued to happen for years now. Dealerships have said nothing is wrong, even though it continues to happen. I only have 38k miles on the truck because i am afraid to drive it with my family inside due to this condition. Something needs to be done about this, it has been an on going problem for at lease 10 years now. Dodge needs to come up with a recall before anyone else looses there life or more property damage occurs. The problem is a known fact and the government can see the track records of the failure. Please help us consumers!!!!!!! |
