Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Death wobble, when driving at any speed, and hitting a bump with the wheel turned even ever so slightly either way, the wheel just gives that direction and the entire truck starts to go that direction. It is very nerve racking, and extremely dangerous. The forums are littered with people with the same issue looking for an answer, but we aren't coming up with one, all while throwing money away into parts that may or may not be bad. I've already had the tie rod failure that dodge has a recall on, but they say my truck was not effected by the recall, so that fell on me to replace. When i called dodge about the problem, they state that no one has reported this issue before so it is an isolated incident with my truck. However, a google search yields thousands of people with the same thing. Can this be investigated in any way? These trucks have become dangerous to drive, or be around on the highways due to this 'death wobble'.
