| Description of the problem | Numerous times since i bought the pickup i have experienced the death wobble. I bought the pickup oct. 2019 and have put 6k miles. I've had the tires checked but was told all tires we fine. I've had them rotated too. The times this has happened i've been on the freeway going about 60 to 70 miles per hour. If i hit some type of transition or uneven area on the freeway it begins to shake violently and i have to quickly maneuver to the shoulder without causing an accident. It has become more frequent and i am frightened that the wheel will fly off or i'm going to end up slamming into another vehicle or maybe even the median wall . The only way that the shaking stops is if i slow down under 50 miles per hour. Then and only then i can continue on and pick up speed, but has happened shortly after back to back to back. |
