Description of the problem	While driving at highway speeds, if the vehicle hits any pot hole, road change, or turning slightly left, the front end will start to uncontrollably shake. It becomes very violent and hard to control until i slow down to under 60 mph. I have had multiple dealers look at the issue and tell me they have seen this issue before but there is nothing they can do for me as no front end parts are worn out. They then state that they have an "upgrade" front end kit i can purchase for $2,500 that will maybe fix it. I ask them if it is a known issue then why doesn't chrysler recall the front ends and fix the issue, they reply that chrysler does not claim there is any issue present. I have checked all over the internet and this issue seems to affect hundreds of thousands of people as manufactures make after-market "death-wobble" fix kits. It is very frustrating to have to possibly pay out of pocket for a fix that might not work. This truck has been nothing but issues for me.
