My Dodge trucks violently wobbling out of control at highway speeds.while driving at about 60 mph, I hit a minor bump in the roadway and the truck started shaking violently. The only way it stopped was I had to reduce my speed to 10 mph, the problem was I was in the express lane, I was in front of a semi truck

Truck currently has 76,000 miles. Replaced all 4 ball joints at the same time, fewer than 40K. Had to replace an injector around the same time. Filters Dodge came out with were too large, letting "junk" into the injectors. Not ong after that, we were driving and lost power. Pulled to side of road, saw belts hanging down. Popped the hood and the pulley(?) the belts attach to had snapped off! fortunately, we were on a county road, driving slowly. Then, at 76K, the front left wheel locked up, causing us to have to replace the entire front axle system. We were stopped at a stop sign, then proceeded to pull forward. About halfway across the intersection, left wheel locked up. We could go in reverse, but not forward. Injectors are clogging up as well and will most likely have to be replaced. We bought this new in 2005 for $42,000. It has had an 'easy' life with very little towing.

I have had a vibration and "death wobble" on my truck since I purchased it. It has been to two different Chrysler dealers for a total of 5 or 6 times without resolution of the issue. The issue is two fold, one is when I hit a large bump at speeds greater than 45 mph the steering wheel shakes violently, and the other this speeds over 60 mph there is a vibration. I have spoken to Chrysler about the issues about a year or so ago. They tried to offer buy back because the issue could not be resolved, but then told me I was not qualified because I was the second owner. I also had to have the steering gear box replaced under warranty, and they replaced all the tie-rod ends ect. The issues is still the same without resolution. Now my warranty is up, and the truck still has this potential dangers issues and I have no where to go. Anytime I have the truck looked at now it cost me a lot of money. My truck has recall 13V-528 and 09E-001 which relate to these issues. The truck was inspected, but they did not fix anything.

Truck started to have severe drivability problems with the front end. Had received a recall notice for both the steering linkage and left ball joint. Took into dealer who performed the physical inspection. Was told that our vehicle was not part of the recall due to configuration but the whole front end need to be replaced and all parts needed where exactly the parts under the recall if our truck had the configuration covered by the recall. We were faced with paying for the repairs base on some technicality that somehow our configuration excluded us from the safety hazard which caused the recall. We do not feel it is a coincidence that the repair needed were exactly the now that were under the recall but our truck was not part of the recall. Our opinion is the recall is too narrow and the safety issue is broader than how it is set up now.

Since this truck was new it would shake violently in the front end when you hit a slight bump at 60 mph changed everything in front end and added steering dampener recommended by dealer. Does it more often now. We have named it the death rattle.

I have been on the waiting list at the local Dodge dealer (mccord in longview, wa.) for a couple of months to replace this tie rod ball. Now I have been told that it is a restrictive part and Chrysler Corp. Is only sending one tie rod per seven days. Looking at where I am at in the stack of recalls, there could be several hundred ahead of me and that suggest to me that my truck could be sitting for almost a year. This is unacceptable. To issue a large recall such as this and not have parts available is irresponsible. Any help in this matter would be appreciated. The recall is : N62 / NHTSA 13V-528 [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

In December 2009 I was involved in an accident in my 2004 3500 Dodge Ram while on my way to work. It was hit in the driver's side front tire which caused front suspension damage. The truck was not drivable. I called aaa and had it towed to telegraph Chrysler Jeep and that's where I had the repairs done. The damage was quite extensive and most (if not all) of the front steering components were replaced. The truck only had 63,285 miles on it at the time. On Monday, May 30th 2011(memorial day) my wife was backing my truck into the driveway when the left outer tie rod broke and left the truck blocking the street. I was able to move the truck into my driveway by jacking it up and straightening the tire and continuing to do so every few feet until it was clear of the road. If this would have happened less than 24 hrs earlier it would have broke while I was towing a friends Chevy van down I-75 at 70 mph! I had it towed to telegraph Chrysler Jeep because I knew that they had replaced that tie rod less than 3000 miles ago from the accident claim. They told me the part was out of warranty to call Chrysler directly. They also told me that they couldn't sell me the part because Chrysler's policy on this was they had to sell me the entire front steering component package and it would cost me over $600! after a dozen or two phone calls back and forth to my employer (yes I work for these ingrates!) they told me there was nothing they could do. After not being able to purchase the part I needed from the dealer and not able to find the part at a local parts store I done some research and found they replaced the 2004 steering parts with 2008 components and this was supposed to be an upgrade!? I finally found the part I needed and since aaa wouldn't tow it back home I had to fix it myself in their parking lot! my trucks extended warranty expired the week before the tie rod broke and they pretty much said tough[xxx]! that's how not to get your employees to' buy what you build"! information redacted pursuant to the freedom

2004 Dodge Ram. Consumer states problem with front end of truck. Consumer describes a shimmy and shaky motion the consumer stated when she drove over a rough spot in the road or a bump going off a bridge in cruise control mode, the entire truck would shimmy and shake. Once the consumer tapped the brake to disengage the cruise to slow the vehicle down, the shake and shimmy would cease. The consumer took the vehicle to the dealer where they performed maintenance to the front end, but the fix only lasted for a few months. The consumer was informed the vehicle needed U-joints, a damper and the fittings needed to be lubricated. Also, the drag linkage which was recalled needed to be replaced as well.

Dodge 2004 3500 pickup. 100,000 miles has developed "death wobble". front end shakes extremely violently when truck hits a bump above 65 mph> have replaced ball joints, tie rod ends and steering dampener with no success.

- Goodrich, MI, USA

My 2004 Dodge 3500 4X4 has a front end problem...it shakes uncontrollably when it hits a series of bumps in the road at or above 45mph. I have replaced the steering stabilizer and the front shocks to only have it get worse. It happens enough now that I don't dare go above 60 mph for fear of crashing the truck or hitting somebody else. It gets even worse when I pull my trailer.

- Dripping Springs, TX, USA

Rm 3500 4X4 long bed quad cab. I have a stock truck. Tie rod ends are shot, steering gear box is shot, ball joints need to be replaced but now fall in the "limits" that Dodge decided to extend the measurements. My truck is a 2004 with only 106,000 highway miles. My friend has the same truck but dually 05 and has 62,000 miles and has to replace the same thing other than his steering gear box for now. Cost for me to repair with labor is $1300 how can parts go out this quick is beyond me. I have owned every truck and never had I needed to replace these kind of parts with low miles.

Problems with 2004 Dodge 1500 Ram. The truck would bounce and shake into oncoming traffic while driving 65 mph. The vehicle was taken to the service dealer who replaced one shock but the vehicle continued to bounce and shake. The dealer told the consumer that the manufacturer put a different frame on the vehicle in 2002 and that nothing could be done.
