Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH, I CROSSED A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD AND LOST ALL CONTROL OF THE 1996 DODGE RAM 1500 4X4 PICKUP. IT SHOOK ALL THE STUFF OFF OF MY SEAT AS WELL AS MY CD HOLDER. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. I AM AT A LOSS AS TO HOW TO LOOK FOR THE PROBLEM. I LOVE THIS TRUCK BUT I HAVE GONE THROUGH TWO WHEEL BEARINGS AND A TIE ROD END AND I HAVE ONLY HAD IT FOR A YEAR.... I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. *TR
