Consumer Description

2005 DODGE TRUCK / RAM/ PICK UP/ 4X4/2 DOOR/ DIESEL CONTINUES TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. I HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP TO STOP THE SHAKING. DODGE SERVICE CONTINUES TO CHARGE ME THE FIX THE PROBLEM HOWEVER THE DEATH SHAKE RETURNS. DODGE HAS CHARGED ME OVER $10,000 IN REPAIRS & STILL NOT FIXED. I BELIEVE THEY KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS & THEY CAN'T FIX IT AS IT IS A MAJOR DESIGN FLAW. NOW THEY'RE TELLING ME A COUPLE OF NEW FRONT TIRES WILL "FIX" THE PROBLEM. SO FAR, I HAVE BOUGHT NEW STEERING LINKAGE, TIRES, BALANCE TIRES, FRONT END ALIGNMENT, STEERING DAMPENER, HUB BRAKE. NOW THEY ARE TELLING ME THE REPLACE THE AXLES FOR $ 2,000. *TR
