Consumer Description

MY 2004 DODGE 2500 SERIES RAM TRUCK IS EXPERIENCING THE "DEATH WOBBLE". I AM UNABLE TO GO PAST 55 MILES AN HOUR AS OF TODAY. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR THE LAST YEAR AND I HAVE REPLACED EVERY PART THAT SHOULD HAVE MADE THIS PROBLEM GO AWAY. WHEN I HIT A BUMP OR POT HOLE OR ANYTHING THAT WILL MAKE THE TRUCK BOUNCE AT ALL, IT VIOLENTLY SHAKES. THIS PROBLEM IS PUTTING EVERYONE AROUND ME BOTH ON THE ROAD AND IN THE TRUCK AT RISK FOR A HORRIBLE COLLISION. THIS VEHICLE IS MY ONLY VEHICLE AND I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE IT. I HAVE READ AND EXPERIENCED MYSELF THAT THERE ISN'T A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. ALL OF THE OWNERS ARE NOW STUCK WITH A VEHICLE THEY CAN'T DRIVE BUT HAVE TO PAY FOR. THIS IS NOT RIGHT BY ANY MEANS. ISN'T THERE SOMETHING WE CAN DO TO CORRECT THIS ONGOING PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED?? COME ON CHRYSLER, STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND DO WHAT IS RIGHT. *TR
