Consumer Description

STEERING WOBBLE AND SHAKES. THIS HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE AS TIME GOES ON. ANYTIME I HIT A BUMP ON THE FREEWAY MY TRUCK STARTS TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE AND WOBBLE. IT IS EVEN WORSE ON A ROAD CURVE. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY IN THE MOUNTAINS. I FEW TIMES I ALMOST LOST CONTROL. THE SHAKE DOES NOT GO AWAY UNTIL I SLOW DOWN BELOW 40MPH WHICH CAUSES ANOTHER DANGEROUS SITUATION WHILE ON THE FREEWAY. I HAVE CHANGED TIRES, CHECKED PRESSURE AND ROTATED TIRES. ALSO, I REPLACED STEERING DAMPENER. NOTHING HAS WORKED TO DIMINISH THE SHAKE. I ALSO HAD THE 4 WHEEL ALIGNMENT CHECKED AND THE SHOP SHOWED ME THAT IT WAS CORRECT. THEY CHECKED EVERYTHING AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING THAT WAS WORN OUT AND NEEDED CHANGING. I WAS TOLD NO REPAIRS NEEDED. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED BEFORE BODIES START PILING UP. *TR
