I WAS GETTING MY PICKUP SERVICED AT A SHOP (NOT A DEALER) AND THEY ADVISED ME OF THE FRONT END PROBLEMS AND THE DANGER OF CONTINUING TO DRIVE IT AND I COULD SEE THE PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT END. I HAD THE REPAIRS MADE AS I WAS UNABLE TO GET TO A DEALER WHICH WOULD BE 40 MILES AWAY. DODGE IS REFUSING TO PAY ANYTHING ON THE REPAIRS BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT MADE AT A DEALERSHIP. WE LIVE IN MONTANA AND THERE IS NOT A DEALER ON EVERY CORNER AND I WAS UNABLE TO GET TO ONE. IT WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE IT.

DRIVING AT A SPEED OVER 55 MPH AND HITTING A BUMP OR POT HOLE MY TRUCK STARTS TO SHAKE AND MY STEERING WHEEL SHAKES BACK AND FORTH VERY FAST AND UNCONTROLLABLE UNTIL I SLOW DOWN BELOW 35 MPH. I HAVE HEARD THIS CALLED THE DEATH WOBBLE AND I SEE HOW IT GOT ITS NAME, IF A SOLUTION ISN'T FOUND SOON ONE OF THESE TIMES I MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SLOW DOWN SAFELY AND KILL SOME ONE IN AN ACCIDENT OR MYSELF. *TR
