| Description of the problem | While driving on the highway around speeds of 60mph -70mph if a front wheel would strike rough pavement, i would lose control of the truck. The front end would shake violently aka "death wobble", and i would have to immediately brake and bring the truck to a stop, for the shaking to stop. Every time the "death wobble" has happened i have almost caused an accident because i could not control the truck. My truck has only 29000 miles, and the issue began before i had 5,000 miles on the truck. I have taken my truck in for this issue several times and the issue was not fixed. |
