NHTSA Complaint #10745509 — 2009 DODGE RAM 1500

WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW I ONLY TEST DROVE SPEEDS UP TO 40 MPH. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE IT ON A ROAD TRIP AND THE TIRES SCREAMED/HOLLOWED AS IF I WAS DRIVE OFF ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING FOUND. IN THE CITY THE TRUCK IS NICE AND QUITE HOWEVER ON THE HIGHWAY IT HOLLOWS OFF AND ON ALL THE WAY(HOURS) ABOVE 45 MPH. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIME AND THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE TEST DROVE IT AND THERE WHERE NO NOISE. I CONTINUE TO DRIVE IT THINKING THAT MAYBE BECAUSE OF THE CHEAP TIRES THE MANUFACTURE INSTALLED. UNTIL 4 YEARS LATER I BOUGHT TOP OF THE LINE REPLACEMENT TIRES AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO MAKE THE SAME NOISE WITH THE NEW TIRES, WHEN TO SEARS THEY REPLACED THE TIRES AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. THERE IS A MALFUNCTION WITH SOMETHING IN THE AXLE OR TIRE ROD I ASSUME. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE NOISE IN COMING FROM THE PASSENGER FRONT TIRE AREA. THERE IS NO SHAKING OR ALIMENT THAT IS NOTICEABLE HOWEVER, I DO GET REGULAR ALIMENTS AND THERE IS ALWAYS ADJUSTMENTS NEEDED.
