| Description of the problem | I was going 65 miles per hour on the freeway when my truck violently shake back and forth so hard i had to come to a complete stop to get it to stop. I've had the front suspension replaced 3 times in the past year and still have what they call a death wobble. I have spent so much money on rentals and on shop repairs trying to repair this problem and still cannot go over 40 miles an hour without it violently shaking. This is dangerous to my family it could kill somebody and i think dodge should be responsible for taking action on repairing this or figure out the problem . I have called dodge and they have told me it is not a recall so they cannot help me out. I had bought brand new tires a brand new drive line along with replacing the front suspension 3 times now and i still cannot drive my truck without it causing violent shaking. It has 87,000 miles on it has never been in an accident so i cannot figure out why this started happening but i think that it should not be okay to have this truck on the road it's going to hurt somebody. I have only driven a couple of times and spent alot on rentals . I will never in my life buy another dodge due to lack of concern for my family's saftey. I own this vehicle outright and wish i would have never bought it. Thats how scary it is to drive. |
