 Description of the problem as i was driving on a road at a speed that was greater than 50 mph i hit a bump in the road. The front end of the truck and the steering wheel began to shake so violently that i thought they were going to fall off. This had happened beginning around late november early december of 2012. It did it several more times and i contacted the dealer about this problem. The truck was serviced and nothing in the front end was found to be damaged and it was recommended that i replace the tires on the truck. The tires were replaced and the truck has been fine for the past year. On 10/30/13 i again was driving the truck at a speed greater than 50 mph and hit a bump in the road and the front end again began to shake violently. I have been pin this shaking down to the following conditions. It will shake if you are driving at highway speeds, you hit a bump in the road (this bump does not have to be big it could be as simple as driving from the roadway onto a bridge deck) the front end will begin to shake and very quickly get violent. The only way to stop it from shaking is to slow the vehicle down to a speed that is less than highway speed which will cause the vibration to stop and you can then return to highway speeds. This has happened several times and i do not have the exact dates that it occurred prior to changing the tires. However it is beginning again and the first time was on the 30th of october 2013.
