Consumer Description
I AM EXPERIENCING THE "DEATH WOBBLE". IT STARTED ABOUT A YEAR AGO WHEN I WOULD GET MINOR SHAKING IN THE STEERING AFTER HITTING A BUMP AT HIGH SPEED . THE TRUCK WOULD SHAKE BAD FOR A SHORT PERIOD AND THEN SLOWING DOWN IT WOULD STOP. I TOOK IT IN AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. THEN IT GOT WORSE, THE SHAKING BECAME MORE VIOLENT AND MORE FREQUENT. I TOOK IT IN AGAIN AND THEY STILL COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. NOW IT HAS GOTTEN TO THE POINT THAT I AM REALLY AFRAID OF IT. THE OTHER DAY I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE, IN CONSTRUCTION WITH BARRIER RAILS AND NO SHOULDER AND IT STARTED. I COULD NOT GET IT TO STOP. I GOT DOWN TO AROUND 20 MPH AND IT WAS STILL SHAKING AND I COULD NOT PULL OVER. FINALLY, SPEEDING UP GOT IT TO STOP. I BEGAN TO EXTENSIVELY RESEARCH THE PROBLEM AND FOUND THAT IT IS QUITE COMMON AND NO SPECIFIC REPAIR TO STOP IT. I AM GOING TO A TIRE SHOP TODAY AND DEMAND THAT SEVERAL REPAIRS ARE MADE IN HOPES THAT ONE OF THEM FIXES THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT REPLACING THE TRACK BAR, STEERING STABILIZER, FRONT BRAKES, TIRES, AND HAVING IT ALIGNED WITH A GREATER CASTER CAN FIX IT.
