DEATH WOBBLE COMING FROM FRONT END OF TRUCK. JUST STARTED HAPPENING WHEN I DRIVE ON BUMPY ROADS. CAUSES COOLANT SPLASH ALL OVER THE ENGINE. ALMOST CAUSES ME TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE TRUCK AND COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *TR

I CURRENTLY OPERATE A 2007 DODGE RAM 2500 4X4 THAT EXPERIENCES THE "DEATH WOBBLE". WHEN TRAVELING +60MPH AND HIT A BUMP/POTHOLE/OVERPASS THE VEHICLE WILL BEGIN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY UNTIL STOPPING IN THE EMERGENCY LANE. THIS HAPPENED FOR THE FIRST TIME AT 52,300 MILES AND CONTINUES TO OCCUR. THE VEHICLE IS OWNED AND OPERATED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO A MECHANIC AND COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE EQUIPMENT. IT WOULD BE WISE FOR DODGE, NTSB, AND NHTSA TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE. IT WOULD NOT TAKE MUCH FOR A SEVERE ACCIDENT TO OCCUR. I EXPERIENCED THE WOBBLE WHILE TRAVELING 70 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE WITH A SEMI ON MY RIGHT AND ONE BEHIND ME. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO NAVIGATE TO THE EMERGENCY LANE WITHOUT STRIKING A TRUCK. A RECALL OR PART THAT NEEDS REPLACING WOULD HELP THE +45 COMPLAINTS REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THIS IS NOT SAFE AND DEMONSTRATES NEGLIGENCE ON DODGE, NHTSA AND NTSB. *TR

I LEFT THE DEALER WITH NO FIX TO MY PROBLEM. *TR

MY 2007 DODGE RAM 2500 WOBBLES WHEN I HIT A BUMP ON THE HIGHWAY. IT HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES AND I TOOK IT FOR REPAIRS. THE TRUCK WAS "SERVICED" AND RETURNED TO ME "FIXED". HOWEVER, I AM STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND AM FEARFUL OF DRIVING THE VEHICLE. *TR

INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) ALLEN SAMUELS DODGE IN WACO DECLINED TO FIX MY DODGE RAM 2500 WITH 39,000 MI. THEY SAID AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER THAT THERE WAS WATER IN MY DIESEL. THAT IS ALL THEY HAD TO COME UP WITH TO NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THE PROBLEM WITH WARRENTY. I HAVE 100,000 MI. WARRENTY ON DRIVETRAIN, WHICH IS REALLY NO GOOD IF YOU CAN'T USE IT. I THINK DODGE SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO ADVERTISE ON TV FOR 100,000 MI. WARRENTY WHEN THEY KNOW THEY CAN GET OUT OF WARRENTING THE VEHICLE. THAT IS A BULL [XXX] LINE NOT TO PAY. THIS COST ME 4,322.91. THEY SAID THEY HAD TO REPLACE ALL 6 INJECTORS TO FIX MY PROBLEM. STARTED OUT REPLACING 2, BUT THAT WAS NOT GOING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. SO THAT IS HOW THEY GOT TO REPLACING ALL 6 INJECTORS. TRIED TO CALL AND WORK WITH DODGE CHRYSLER ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. ONLY TALKED TO WOMEN ABOUT MY 5.9 DIESEL ENGINE. THE WOMEN ASSIGNED MY CASE WORKER TO ME NAMED RYAN. HE NEVER ONCE CONTACTED ME ABOUT THE PROBLEM. GUESS THEY ARE WELL TRAINED TO DO A BAD JOB. *TR
