    INCIDENT-2005 DODGE DAKOTA, SEVERE VIBRATIONS IN REAR OF TRUCK. SO FAR DEALER HAS CHANGED 11 GOODYEAR EAGLE LS & 8 WHEELS AND VIBRATION STILL THERE. DEALER ADVISES THAT CANNOT CHANGE BRAND IF TIRES WITHOUT DODGE PERMISSION. AWAITING PERMISSION. THE VIBRATION IS A SAFETY PROBLEM AS THE REAR END OF TRUCK WILL HOP AROUND ON ROUGH OR POORLY MAINTAINED ROADS. I HAVE DRIVEN 5 SEPARATE 2005 DAKOTA'S AND THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED ON ALL 5 TRUCKS. DEALER RESPONSE IS THEY ALL DO IT, SO IT IS NOT A PROBLEM. ALSO, SECOND CONCERN IS THE POSITIONING OF THE 2 HEADRESTS IN REAR SEATING AREA AS THEY REDUCE REARWARD VISION BY 25%. IT WOULD REQUIRE A MAJOR DIS-ASSEMBLY OF THE INSIDE BACK OF TRUCK TO REMOVE. THEY ARE NOT NEEDED WHEN THE REAR SEATS ARE REMOVED. *NM
