Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2011 DODGE RAM 2500 HD WITH 27,000 MILES. THIS TRUCK WAS BOUGHT NEW FROM THE DEALER. THIS TRUCK NOW HAS A SEVERE PROBLEM WITH STEERING. WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IF THE TRUCK HITS A BUMP IN THE ROAD THE FRONT END WILL GO INTO A VERY VIOLENT SHAKING. THIS IS SEVERE ENOUGH TO CAUSE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER A SIMPLE SEARCH OF THE INTERNET I FOUND THIS TO BE CALLED THE DEATH WOBBLE AND APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN COMMON PROBLEM. *TR
