| Description of the problem | I was driving and hit a bumpy place in the road and the whole truck started shaking uncontrollably. I had to stop on the freeway before i could get it under control. We took it to the dealership where we purchased it and they said there is nothing wrong with it. We have since done research and found this problem to affect alot of these vehicles. To those that experience it we call it "the death wobble" because there is nothing you can do except stop and hope you don't get into an accident. |
