Consumer Description

MILEAGE 21098. DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY 65 MPH, ROAD GOT BUMPY, I THOUGHT THE PICKUP WAS GOING TO SHAKE IT SELF APART. LUCKY NO OTHER VEHICLES WAS AROUND ME. I MANAGED TO GET IT STOPPED AND PULLED OVER, IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING, I COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. IT HAPPENED AGAIN AT 45 MPH. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, AND THEY SAID "YES WE ARE VERY FAMILLAR WITH THIS PROBLEM. THEY PERFORMED RECALL 20N04 AND REPLACED STEERING DAMPER. I STILL GET LOT OF SHAKING AND LOT OF CONTROL, ESPECIALLY ON GRAVEL ROADS WITH WASHBOARDS.
