Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT AROUND 60 MPH I HIT A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD, A NORMAL SEAM IN THE MACADMN. MY TRUCK STARTED TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. I HAD VERY LITTLE TO NO CONTROL OF THE STEERING, AND THE BRAKING WAS ALSO VERY POOR. THE TRUCK SHOOK SO BAD THAT IT IMPAIRED MY VISION ALL I COULD DO WAS LET OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND HOLD ON TO THE STEERING WHEEL. THE TRUCK DRIFTED INTO THE LEFT LANE WHILE SLOWING. AROUND 35-40 MPH THE SHAKING WENT AWAY AND THE TRUCK ACTED NORMAL. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND INTO A MALL PARKING LOT AND CHECKED UNDER THE TRUCK FOR ANYTHING OBVIOUSLY WRONG AND FOUND NOTHING. I DROVE MY TRUCK HOME ABOUT 10 MILES NO MORE PROBLEMS. WHAT A VERY SCARY EPISODE. *TR
