2015 Dodge Ram laramie, 4X4 with eco diesel motor. At highway speeds the truck begins to vibrate, 65 mph and greater. The vibration appears to originate in the rear end of the vehicle, as speed increases the vibration increases. When the road becomes rough (I.e. pothole on I95) control becomes an issue due to the vibration. I brought the truck back to the dealer, and dealer replaced tires. Problem is still persistent and seems to be getting worse. Truck now has 1000 miles on it and is back to the dealer again for diagnostic, and repair. This is the third time the truck has been brought to the dealer and they are currently unsure of what the issue may be. I have taken video of the my child's car seat in the back of the truck shaking from the vibration and presented it to the dealer to help diagnose the issue. Family does not feel safe in this vehicle and if this problem exists in other like models vehicles it should be addressed by the manufacturer as it is a major safety concern for consumers and other motorists.

Bought a brand new 2015 Dodge Ram 1500, the first week I had an issue with one of the windows not going back up, about a month later I was driving and the new knob shifter, went into neutral by itself while I was driving. Meant to take it in, but had been so busy with work, that I was going to wait until the first oil change. I noted those two issues on an email review/survey that Dodge hounded me to fill out. Exactly two months after owning the truck on July 28th, the same day I made my second payment, I was at the garage at work, left the truck on and put it in park, got out of the car, closed the door and as I was getting ready to go around the truck to go inside my job, the car started to back out by itself, I tried getting back into the truck to stop it but unfortunately, I failed, the truck almost ran me over. Thankfully a cement beam stopped this from happening.
