Description of the problem	Entering freeway from a stop light and hit a small bump send the truck into violent and uncontrollable shaking and loss of steering. Because it has happened before, this time i tried accelerating out of it but did not work. Finally i stopped at the solder of the highway without causing an accident. Since then i have received two recall notices from dodge, took the truck every time to the local dealer, reno dodge, and both times they said my truck is not effected by those recalls including today. Almost on a daily basis i hit bumps that almost put the truck in that "dance of death". Finally i did an internet search and found numerous accounts of the identical cases under comparable conditions. I wish i could sell my truck and get a new one but financially is completely out of the question. Sooner or later the same thing will happen an i will hurt someone or myself of both. I hope you can help.

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.
