My husband and I just bought a 2008 Dodge 3500 mega cab 4X4 4 weeks ago when you reach speeds of 60-70 mph and hit a normal bump in the road the truck starts to shake uncontrollably until you come to an almost complete stop. The truck has 50,000 on it and in the past 4 weeks of owning it has done it 4 or 5 times and almost caused a very bad wreck something is wrong with these trucks they need fixed. The dealer is giving us the run around about fixing it.

Ram 3500

The contact owns a 2008 Dodge Ram 3500. While driving between 50-70 mph, the front end of the vehicle began to wobble uncontrollably. The wobbling would not stop until the vehicle was at a complete stop. The dealer stated that the failure was a non-warranty related issue and the contact would be liable for the repairs. The contact believes this is a safety issue because it feels that the front end of the vehicle will detach while driving. The current mileage was 41,000 and failure mileage was 30,000.
