Consumer Description

MY TRUCK VIOLENTLY SHAKES WHEN YOU HIT A BUMP AT APPROX. 55 MPH OR GREATER. IT ALSO WANDERS AND IS VERY TOUGH TO STEER WHEN THE VIBRATION STARTS. IT SEEMS TO BE CONSISTENT TO THOUSAND OF OTHER COMPLAINTS BYE RAM 2500 OWNERS I HAVE READ ABOUT ONLINE AND WATCHED VIDEOS REGARDING THERE "DODGE DEATH WOBBLE" NIGHTMARES WITH THE TRUCKS. I RECENTLY CONSULTED WITH THE DEALER AND THEY OFFER A STEERING LINKAGE "UPGRADE KIT" FOR APPROX. $1200 INSTALLED. FROM WHAT I HAVE RESEARCHED IS THE KIT DOESN'T ALWAYS FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE A 2007 DODGE RAM 2500 WITH ONLY 55,000 MILES ON IT THAT I WILL NOT DRIVE OVER 55 MPH. IT TERRIFIES ME WHEN IT SHUTTERS SO BAD. I CANNOT BELIEVE A $45,000 TRUCK NEW PRICED IS UNDRIVEABLE OVER 50 MPH DUE TO THE UNGODLY SHAKING. I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS HAS ESCAPED RECALL WITH MILLIONS OF OWNERS COMPLAINING AND MAKING YOU TUBE VIDEOS AND POSTING ON FORUMS ABOUT THE "DODGE DEATH WOBBLE." ITS SO UNBELIEVABLE THAT I PAID OVER 30K FOR A TRUCK AND IT ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES ON IT AND CANT BE DRIVEN OVER 50 MPH!! PLEASE LOOK AT SOME OF THE "DODGE DEATH WOBBLE" VIDEOS ON YOU TUBE AND TELL ME HOW THAT CANT BE SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
