 Description of the problemAt least once a week our truck will go in to a violent shaking episode. The majority of the time it rides beautifully. There doesn't seem to be a pattern other than it begins after the truck has been parked and started to be driven again. It feels as if the wheels are falling off literally. It seems to be suspension related but sets off no engine light or warnings. Usually if my wife or i stop the truck, place it in park, shut the truck off, the problem will stop. It is such a violent shaking that the vehicle can not be driven and must be pulled off the road. Here in amish country not all roads have emergency lanes and this has put us in some dangerous predicament. Had the truck in to one dealer who could not replicate the problem. I have an appointment next week at another dealer for the same issue. I normally carry no load and no towing has been done with this truck to date.*jb
