Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 75 MPH WHEN I WENT OVER A BRIDGE TRANSITION. THE TRUCKS STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY AND I HAD TO SLOW THE TRUCK DOWN TO 20 MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC TO GET THE SHAKING TO STOP. THE TRUCKS BRAKES SEEMED TO NOT WORK AT NORMAL LEVELS WHEN SLOWING DOWN, I HAD TO LET OFF THE GAS TO GET THE TRUCK TO SLOW DOWN. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE. I COULD BARELY CONTROL THE TRUCK ENOUGH TO CHANGE LANES TO START GETTING OVER TO THE EMERGENCY LANE. I AM HESITANT TO DRIVE MY TRUCK ANYMORE IF THIS DEATH WOBBLE IS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN.
