 Description of the problemMy 2006 dodge 3500 truck experiences sudden, violent, uncontrollable front end shaking at speeds above 55 mph. This is brought on when i hit a bump, dip, frost heave, or cross a bridge overpass where the road surface is uneven with the overpass surface. When this occurs, it will not stop until the vehicle is slowed to below 25 mph. I have very little control with steering and can only stab the brakes and hold the steering wheel until i reach a lower speed and the shaking stops. This can happen at normal highway speed from 55 mph up to 75 mph. This shaking is not just mild wheelhop, it is quite "violent". Items on the seats are thrown around, my glove box shakes open, things stored in the dash pockets are tossed around. All you can do is grip the steering wheel tightly, hold on, and hope to keep the truck between the lines. I have narrowly avoided a collision on a number of occasions. This has been going on for sometime since around 60k miles, i now have 140k miles on the truck. New tires, shocks, alignments, nothing helps. The only response from the dodge dealer was check my tire pressure and steering stabilizer. Me research on the internet has revealed that this problem spans several years of dodge trucks, not just 06 models. There are hundreds of comments and complaints on websites. All one has to do is google "dodge truck death wobble". I was not able to find one single dodge dealer provided remedy. It is only a matter of time before someone is killed in an accident because the vehicle is literally out of control. Please check into this.
