Description of the problem | This truck occasionally after going over a bump in the road at highway speeds will develop a jarring, constant severe vibration in the steering wheel and suspension. From what i can tell this is the "death wobble" i have seen reported online. It is a very violent vibration that can only be stopped by slowing the truck below 25-30mph. It is so severe that it feels like you are going to lose control of the vehicle. This has now happened 4 times with this vehicle. It has approximately 44,000 miles on it. |
