| Description of the problem | I understand chrysler has finally admitted to the "death wobble" 2003-2011 problem. My concern is, this has been a problem since the mid 1990 models and now we who own and maintain those models are left out and are still having the problems. It was their problem in the beginning and they refused to correct it. I, at my expense had the problem repaired in 2010 and once again the problem continues people are still driving the older models and are still at risk. A dodge will last forever if it is taken care of, that in mind dodge should recall all the 90's models also, it is not right. People can die in accidents involving the older vehicle. Also!!! How many accidents, that may have resulted in death have there been as a result of this problem. How many involved vehicles in the 1990 range before dodge finally admitted to the problem. All the vehicles with a history of the problem should be recalled. *kb |
