Any time I would hit uneven pavement (bridge approach, pothole, dip in road, edge of shoulder) my truck would go into a violent and uncontrollable shaking. This occurred on a regular basis. Each time, I would not be able to regain control until the speed of the vehicle slowed to approx. 15 or 20 mph. If on a straight stretch of road, it would hold straight until I regained control. If in a curve, the truck would either cross over or run off the road. When describing the symptoms to multiple Dodge dealers, they referred to the issue as the "Dodge death wobble". I have received two notices from Dodge/Chrysler regarding recalls. On the first recall, upon inspection, I was told that my truck did not qualify. By the time the second recall was released, I had already replaced all of my steering linkage to a new Chrysler/mopar design. This upgrade was completed because Dodge no longer offered parts for the 2003-2008 models and the only factory support parts option was to put 2009 steering linkage on an older truck. Per the recall notice, I submitted my service records and charges to Chrysler for reimbursement. My total cost to replace my steering linkage was approximately $715. The upgraded steering linkage has prevented loss of control from occurring again. I was contacted by phone and advised that my vehicle was not repaired with mopar parts and I needed to submit additional service records. When I challenged this feedback and asked to speak with a member of management, I was placed on hold when the representative then returned to advise that my truck did not qualify for the recall because it was not originally built with the defective parts. I again asked to speak with a member of management and was told I could not do so. I was told that I would be placed on a request list and should expect to hear back from someone within 24 hours.

I was driving down a side street and my right tie rod drop off losing control we went into on coming traffic, and crashed into the curb, luckily missing oncoming cars. Had the vehicle towed to perfection tire and 3 days later they not only replace the right tie rod but also the left tie rod, upper ball joints, lower ball joints, and replacing the right tire from accident. Costing me $1,911.33. A few weeks later, I get a letter from Chrysler stating a problem with the left tie rod and if you have already experienced this condition and have paid to have it repaired, to send your original receipts to Chrysler customer assistance. I did do this and they said this doesn't apply. We were suppose to tow our 5th wheel that day and go on our anniversary vacation. Thank god we were not on a freeway going 65 mph. I don't think we would have survived this trip, and possibly taking out a few others folks too. Makes me feel very uncomfortable knowing someone else out there may have the same issue.

I have a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 and recently the infamous "death wobble" has returned. It seems to happen only when the temperature of the outside air is above freezing, I'm going more than 65mph, and I hit a bump. The vehicle shakes uncontrollably, is almost impossible to keep the steering straight, and dangerously hard to remain in one lane. I must slow down rapidly to a speed under 45 to regain control.
