| Description of the problem | I was traveling on i-40 east between i-95 and wilmington nc. I was traveling 75 mph when i hit a bump and the truck front end started shaking violently and uncontrollably. I thought the steering wheel was going to come loose. I immediately hit the brakes, and had to almost come to a complete stop to recover control. Thankfully there was no one traveling to close behind me or it was have probably been a bad accident. This happened 2 more times before i got to my destination. It has also happened at 45 mph after hitting a pothole or a bump in the road. It is very frightening when it happens. |
