NHTSA Complaint #10295767 — 2005 DODGE RAM 2500

FRONT LEFT TIRE WORE VERY UNEVENLY W/ 85K MILES. TRUCK VIBRATES AND BOUNCES. REPLACED ALL TIRES. TRUCK STILL VIBRATES WITH NEW TIRES AND SEEMS TO HAVE A SELF PERPETUATED BOUNCE - MOST OFTEN OCCURS AT 45 TO 65 MPH, UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION, WHILE MAKING A LONG SWOOPING RIGHT CURVE - BUT HAPPENS ELSEWHERE LESS FREQUENTLY. CERTIFIED DODGE SHOP FOLLOWED TSB AND REPLACED ORIGINAL TIE ROD (NO LONGER AVAILABLE BY ITSELF) WITH MULTIPLE ARM DAMPER / TIE/ PITMAN ARM PARTS # 68039930-AA, 52106909-AE, 52122362-AE, 52122370-AB. TRUCK STILL VIBRATES AND BOUNCES - VERY UNSETTLING! YOU DEFINITELY FEEL LIKE YOU DON'T HAVE COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE TRUCK WHILE IT'S BOUNCING. ADD ICE OR SNOW AND ????ALSO NEW DAMPER PARTS NOW SQUEAK WHEN BODY LEANS - LIKE WHEN I TAKE A HARD RIGHT AT LOW SPEEDS IN A PARKING LOT. RETURNED TO SHOP. THEY SUGGESTED I CHANGE DIFFERENTIAL FLUID (NEVER DONE TO DATE), SO WE DID. MADE VIBRATIONS A LITTLE LESS NOTICEABLE, (STEERING WHEEL AND SHIFT LEVER DON'T DANCE AS MUCH) BUT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. SHOP SAID DODGE IS WORKING ON SOME OTHER KIND OF FIX (TSB) THAT MAY PERTAIN TO MY PROBLEM, BUT THEY DON'T KNOW YET BECAUSE IT HASN'T BEEN RELEASED. SOMETHING ABOUT A SLEEVE THAT GOES OVER SOME EXISTING PART. I CONTACTED DODGE DIRECTLY TO SEE IF I COULD FIND OUT MORE INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT THE PROBLEM AND WHAT THEY ARE WORKING ON TO FIX IT. THEY WOULDN'T TELL ME ANYTHING EXCEPT TO MAYBE TRY ANOTHER AUTHORIZED DODGE SHOP IF I WASN'T HAPPY WITH THE WORK THEY DID. THIS IS '!@#$%'.! YOU KNOW DODGE KNOWS SOMETHING. DIDN'T WE LEARN ANYTHING FROM THE FORD PINTO? ATLEAST TELL PEOPLE THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON SOMETHING SO WE DON'T WASTE OUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON POINTLESS REPAIRS THAT WON'T FIX THE PROBLEM. MY TRUCK IS A 05' DODGE 2500 CREW CAB 5 SPD MANUAL. PROBLEM STARTED AROUND 80K MILES - TRUCK NOW HAS 97K MILES. *TR
