Description of the problem | I was driving in my truck with my friend on sr 101. Approximate speed was 60 mph. We went around a bend in the road over a concrete bridge expansion joint where the pavement changed levels. The truck jumped and began violently vibrating and forced me into passenger side guard rail of the bridge. The vibrating continued until i slowed down to approx 10 mph. The problem i thought was fixed with new steering stabilizer and shocks, a. K. A. The death wobble has returned. After research on the internet, i called my local dodge dealership with skepticism. He knew of no recalls and it would not be covered under warranty. I do not feel safe in the vehicle and do not want my family riding in the truck. I have escaped injury to this point. This is my 1st posting. Please help. What should i do? |
