October 31, 2015, i experienced the dodge "death wobble" twice within 10 minutes, speed approximately 50 to 55 mph on a 2 lane east bound road in modesto, calif., driving straight. luckily, no cars were close by. previously, i have experienced a single wheel "death wobble". i am having to change the track bar bushings every 15,000 to 20,000 miles. they are worn out or in pieces. i have found the frame and the front differential are not in alignment. the differential needs to be pulled into alignment with the frame 1/4 inch(approx.) to install the bolt through the frame mount and the track bar bushing. this truck has never been in a collision to the front. the "death wobble" has been noticed on many truck websites. if i had been in traffic, it would have caused an accident. what is nhtsa doing about a recall by dodge to fix the problem, permanently? the truck was new when i bought it. i have changed addresses on registration and have not received any notices of the other recalls.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 dodge ram 2500. while driving over 70 mph, the vehicle experienced severe vibration. the vehicle was taken to the dealer, but no failure could be found. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 90,000.

Driving on the interstate drove over an area that had bee patched and the left fornt wheel began vibrating making it extreamly difficult to steer.the truck pulled to the left and would not stop until the truck came to a complete stop.

Recurrent issue as i drive at speeds ranging from 35 mph to 75 mph and i hit a patch,hole or bump in the road my truck will start vibrating violently,feels like i am on a poko stick and i cannot control the steering.i took me accross 4 interstate lanes until i could stop the vibration which only quits when you come to a complete stop.the latest occurance took me into the quardrail damaging the passenger side.i had the truck looked at by the chrysler dealership and was told nothin was wrong.the left tieror had an outstanding recall but they said mine was inspected and did not need replaced.this has occured between 11 to 15 times since i bought the truck late last year and i believe it to be a serious issue needing investigating.

We were traveling on interstate 84 about 600 miles round trip on vacation when we would hit a bump or seam in the road and the truck would begin shaking violently causing panic and some loss of steering control. i've learned this is referred to as the infamous dodge death wobble
