Drivers side and passengers side mirrors shake/vibrate at highway speeds making it difficult to see approaching traffic.eventually this will cause a accident. I returned the vechicle to the dealer and had the drivers side mirrior replaced but this replacement suffered from the same shaking problems at highway speeds.I told the service rep. But he said they all ( Dodge pickups 1500-2500 series) suffer from the same problem and they are waiting for a tsb on the problem. I also have a friend with the same truck and the same problem.
