Consumer Description

CONSISTENT DRIVELINE VIBRATION, UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR. I TOOK MY 2005 DODGE LARAMIE QUAD CAB IN FOR A FRONT END ALIGNMENT ON MARCH 5, 2007 TO TRY AND REPAIR THE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED PROBLEM. SINCE THIS TIME I HAVE HAD THE TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP A MINIMUM OF TEN TIMES AND IT HAS BEEN IN THEIR POSSESSION AT LEAST 60 DAYS. THE DEALER HAS VIRTUALLY REPLACED ALL OF THE FRONT END PARTS, BRAKES, ROTORS, CALIPERS, ROTATED TIRES, REPLACED AND TRIED ELEVEN (11) MICHELIN TIRES, BALANCED, HIGH SPEED BALANCED, MY RIMS HAVE OVER FIFTY NOTCHES WHERE THEY HAVE PLACED WEIGHTS TO BALANCE THE TIRES WITHOUT RESULT. SIMILAR COMPLAINTS LEAD ME TO BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS INVESTIGATED SINCE BY THEIR OWN ADMISSION THEY CAN NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. *TR
