Description of the problem	My truck shakes violently when i hit imperfections in the road. It happens 3 or more times a week. I have to stop my truck to get the shaking to cease. I have had it to the dealer more than once for the problem. They could not "replicate the problem" the first two times. The third time i drove and the service man rode with me. They determined it was the tires that were causing the problem. They said tires were not covered in the warranty. I bought new tires and that did not fix the problem. Took the truck back to them, they said dodge told them" that there was no known fix for this problem." and for them to "just put a new steering damper on to see what that does." that only put a bandaid on the problem. Now the "death wobble" is back, and im past my warranty. Just like they wanted to begin with. I got the truck on 7/4/08, the first occurrence was 11/18/08 when the truck had only 11,000 miles on it.
