Description of the problem	Driving up country road at 45 mph in my dodge ram 2500 diesel, with only 40k miles on it. All of a sudden, death wobble hits. No ability to steer and no brakes. Right wheel gets jammed into frame of truck at 45mph and can't spin so violent and uncontrollable shaking. Evidenced by tire marks on the frame of my truck. Have photos. Sends me up the side of the road, and almost flips the truck upside down. Managed to get truck under control, by slamming on my brakes, in oncoming traffic, my dog hits the windshield. Police officer was right behind me and witnessed the entire event, told me i was lucky to be alive. When i called dodge they denied everything. Looked up internet and found "death wobble" which is exactly what transpired with the truck. Fortunately at the time i was not hauling my horse trailer or all would have been dead. Damages to date so far is 8k, including frame, front bumper, front suspension, steering, front axle assembly. This is absolutely outrageous for a truck that only has 40k miles.
