2008 Dodge RAM 2500 Suspension Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	854565
Internal NHTSA #	10397730
Manufacurer	CHRYSLER GROUP LLC
Brand	DODGE
Model	RAM 2500
Model Year	2008
File date	01/04/10
Component	SUSPENSION
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	At freeway speeds of 50-70 mph, when the truck hits imperfections in the road, including botz dots and potholes, the front end of the truck enters into a violent shake, which is completely uncontrollable, and requires bringing the vehicle to a complete stop. This occurs approximately 2-3 times per month. I've replaced the steering box, steering dampener, tie rods and tie rod ends, tires, shocks, and drag link, and none of these have corrected the problem. I also added a steering gear brace, and this didn't help either.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
