NHTSA Complaint #10453789 — 2003 DODGE RAM 2500

WE BOUGHT A 2003 DODGE RAM 2500 IN NOVEMBER OF 2011. SINCE WE HAVE BOUGHT IT WE HAVE SPENT $3500 IN REPAIRS IN REGARDS TO THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AND IT STILL ISN'T FIXED. I DRIVE IT DOWN A ROAD AND AS SOON AS YOU GET IT UP TO 50-55 MPH AND HIT A SMALL BUMP IT VIOLENTLY WOBBLES UNCONTROLLABLY. THE WOBBLE HAS CAUSED SEVERAL PARTS TO BREAK OR CRACK INCLUDING OUR MOST RECENT PURCHASE, THE RADIATOR. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TRUCK TO REPORT THIS AND ISN'T GOING TO BE THE LAST UNTIL DODGE MAN'S UP AND ADMITS THEY MADE A MISTAKE. THIS IS AN APPARENT MISTAKE OF MORE THAN JUST BROKE DOWN PARTS AND WORN PARTS. THERE IS SOMETHING EXTREMELY WRONG WITH THE MANUFACTURING OF THESE VEHICLES AND IS IT GOING TO TAKE A DEATH FOR SOMEONE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT? CHRYSLER IS QUOTED "THE SAFETY OF OUR CUSTOMERS COMES FIRST" AND I WOULD LOVE FOR THE MAN WHO MADE THAT STATEMENT TAKE THIS TRUCK FOR A DRIVE AND EXPERIENCE THE "DEATH WOBBLE' FOR HIMSELF AND LET ME KNOW HOW SAFE HE FEELS AFTER THAT. WE HAVE OWNED MANY VEHICLES IN THE PAST, NONE OF WHICH HAS REMOTELY CAUSED THIS MANY PROBLEMS SO TO SAY THERE'S NO ISSUE OR PROBLEM WITH THIS IS EXTREMELY BOLD. WE ARE LOOKING INTO FURTHERING OUR INVESTIGATION IN THIS MATTER AND ALSO LOOKING INTO WHAT A ATTORNEY WOULD DO IF THEY WERE US. *TR
