Description of the problem	I have been experiencing severe front end shaking/wobble when traveling at various speeds and after the most significant event occurs when traveling at highway speed and hitting a bump when steering left or right. This causes the front-end to shake violently and the steering wheel to rapidly jerk to the left/right. The only way for this to stop is to pull over and come to a complete stop and then resume driving. I have taken my truck to my personal mechanic who inspected everything and told me there was nothing noticeable that would cause the truck to do this. After some more occurrences, i took it to the dodge dealer to get their opinion. I was told that i needed to replace the steering damper and that would solve my problem. I thought this to be rather odd due to the fact that i just had it replace within the past year due to it leaking. I was assured this would take care of the front end wobble. Well, $144 later, it was still happening. I was told next that it could be an alignment issue, so they did an alignment on the truck. That too did not resolve the problem. I spoke directly to the service manager who, after a lengthy conversation, informed me that he has seen a large number of these trucks that have the same problem and the only way to fix it is to replace a number of front end parts that end up totaling $2,370. 16. I was informed that these parts are new and not oem which i couldn't even obtain anymore. I have done some research and have determined that i am not the only one who has experienced the front-end shimmy/wobble. There is vast information regarding this problem on the internet.
