Consumer Description

2007 DODGE RAM 2500 - WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH THE TRUCK WHEELS GO INTO WHAT IS REFERRED TO AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AS IT'S DESCRIBED AS BOTH FRONT TIRES ARE BOUNCING UP AND DOWN LIKE A BASKETBALL. THE DRIVER HAS VERY LIMITED STEERING CONTROL WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING RESULTING IN A SERIOUS AUTOMOTIVE ACCIDENT. THERE WAS A RECALL ON TIE-RODS BUT THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE TIE-RODS. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO A LOCAL GARAGE SPECIALIZING IN FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENTS AND TIE RODS. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND DODGE SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE AND LIABLE FOR THIS DEFECTIVE DESIGN AND PART. *TR
