Description of the problem	I have a 2008 dodge ram 3500, @ 63,000km i started to experience violent shaking of the front end. Brought the vehicle to dodge and they said it was a sticky steering stabilizer. The service manager said that they changed the steering stabilizer and sent me on my way. A week later i had the same shake happen and got under and looked at the truck. Turns out they had just greased the steering stabilizer shaft... I went back and complained and they gave me the run around so i decided to add a few aftermarket parts. They helped for a while but the shake came back. Took the vehicle back to dodge and said all the suspension/steering components were within factory specs and basically told me i was imagining it. I told them to test drive the vehicle @ 110 km/h which is the posted speed limit where i always get the shake, and they flat out told me the tech's will not drive a vehicle over 100 km/h. I ended up having the entire front end replaced on the truck only to still have the problem and the dealers won't even entertain taking a look at it since i'm out of my warranty but have been having the problem for the last 60,000km's.
