Consumer Description

2007 - DODGE RAM 1500 MEGACAB HAS THE 'DEATH WOBBLE'. WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, IF YOU HIT A BUMP OR POTHOLE, ESPECIALLY WHILE MAKING A SLIGHT TURN, THE FRONT END SUSPENSION SHAKES UNCONTROLLABLY UNTIL YOU ARE ABLE TO REDUCE SPEEDS TO APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH. WHEN THE TRUCK IS SHAKING STEERING IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE AND SLOWING THE TRUCK WHILE MAINTAINING CONTROL IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. IT HAS HAPPENED OFTEN ENOUGH THAT I CAN NEARLY REPRODUCE IT ON DEMAND. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE WHEN THE SHAKING OCCURS AND FEAR LOSING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. *TT
