Recently reported SUSPENSION problems on 2007 Dodge Ram 2500

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 dodge ram 2500. the contact stated that the copper wiring used in all four doors was faulty, which caused the door locks to malfunction and become unsecured. the vehicle was taken to jones ford wickenburg (555 e wickenburg way, wickenburg, az 85390, (844) 524-1981) where it was diagnosed that the wire harnesses needed to be repaired. in addition, while driving various speeds, a popping noise was heard from the front of the vehicle. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who replaced the upper and lower ball joints, wheel bearings, power steering gear box, pitman arm, and the steering stabilizer brace; however, the failure continued. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not contacted. the failure mileage was 178,000.

Death wobble / as i was coming down on ramp to i-205 after leaving hannah dodge as speed reached 55 i hit a small bump in pave and truck shook so violently i had to hit brakes as vehicle pulled left then right to shoulder where i came to a stop. this first happened as i reached 164th and hwy. 14 at 64 mph and hit asphalt patch on overpass and was steering to the left lane when truck started shuddering violently and pulling to right as i hit brakes. luckily on both occasions no traffic was to my right or behind me or i'm sure an accident could have occurred.

The passenger track bar mount and shock mount has fractures in the welds to the axle housing. the shock bracket underneath wear the bottom of the passenger shock bolts in is completely broken and the bottom of the shock is just floating with no stability. this is a factory weld and the 2013-2014s have the same issue but are the only ones with an official recall. it's been reported on many previous years and chrysler/dodge will not fix it. i am unable to take a picture of the the shock bolt as it is blocked by the track bar mount, but i did get the track bar mount clearly with the major fractures. there are more on the inner side of the passenger axle housing. this creates a major safety issue if it completely fails.

My 2007 dodge 2500 truck with a 5.9 diesel has experienced, what has been widely known as, death wobble. i would describe this as an uncontrollable loss of control when going over a bump or (more especially) an uneven change in the roadway like when going over overpasses or bridges. this is prevalent on the highway at speeds of 60 mph plus. my truck currently only has 70,000 miles and has been impeccably maintained. the entire truck and steering shakes and the only way to stay alive is to brake heavily until it stops, usually at 30 to 40 mph. this is not safe in any way, but especially on the highway. the truck has had this issue for years and happens without warning. i took the truck to my dealership and they said off the record, "sorry, we know it happens, but we have no solution." death wobble...everyone knows about it. not gonna fix it. hhmmmmm.

During highway driving 60mph my truck developed "death wobble" the steering wheel was shaking violently side to side, i was unable to gain control until the truck was below 15mph. this happened several occasions thereafter anywhere from 40-65mph. i took the truck to the dealership, which determined everything was fine as far as recall concerns go, i explained that there was something wrong weather it was recall or not, and i wish to have it fixed. they expressed the truck was fine and refused to look further into it. there was a recall on the front end steering linkage which they also stated was not a problem. the "death wobble" returned on several occasions until from 12-4-17 to about 2-10-2017 when it caused me to leave the road pulling a trailer nearly crashing into a bridge support. after giving up on the dealer i investigated myself and found that the front end traction bar link was bad, this allowed the axle to move side to side. with the steering mounted to the frame, and the axle moving this caused the steering drag link to violently push/pull on the steering causing the potential deadly condition essentially the steering was steering left and right without my control. after replacing the traction bar and front end linkage the truck performed as it should with no further issues, this is a problem that is extremely common among ram owners of 2002-20010 trucks. check out "dodge ram death wobble" on youtube it is a problem that dodge ignores, and when reported isn't aware on how to fix. it occurred on all road types and usually started at a bump or pot hole. here's a link of many with the exact same problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnxs7x55d9c&feature=youtu.be

Driving about 65 mph hit a bump on interstate and truck shook violently and almost hit concrete wall. had track bar bushings replaced that was supposed to be the fix just to have the same thing happen again two weeks later taking me off the interstate once again. not sure what to have done next before it kills me or someone else!

I have been having a problem that is know as (the death wobble ) when driving at 50 miles per hour or higher when hitting a bump in the road the truck vibrates so bad the you have a hard time controlling it.this has been happening since 2014. i have changed numerous parts in the steering to solve this problem to no avail. when will there be a recall on this issue before someone is killed.

Experienced severe/uncontrollable "death wobble" after running over pothole on frwy. at 70-75mph. occurred south of tucson, az. and 6-7 times again on way to dallas after a road imperfections was encountered. had to keep speed below 65mph and reduced air in front tires to mitigate severity of resulting wobble. each time the wobble occurred i had to quickly reduce speed to below 30mph to regain control of truck. dodge dealership in dallas, tx. determined the upper and lower ball joints in front end were bad and replaced them. the vehicle had less than 57k miles. cost of ball joint replacement ~$1k.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 dodge ram 2500. while driving approximately 65 mph, the vehicle shook uncontrollably. the contact mentioned that the steering wheel was difficult to turn. the vehicle was taken to a dealer, but was unable to be diagnosed. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, but the diagnosis was unknown. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 109,000.

07 mega cab 4x4 has the well known "death wobble" that chrysler doesn't want to acknowledge. when traveling over 55 and hit bumps, potholes, or bridge joints the condition starts and doesn't stop until slowed to less than 20 mph. this has happened on numerous occasions. have spent several thousand dollars trying to fix to no avail. truck only had 52500 miles when this started. i have replaced steering system with "new improved" version, replaced shocks, track bar bushings, steering stabilizer, steering gear box stabilizer, tires. truck has only been driven 800 miles in the last 2 years due to the problem and only driven that far because when it started i was 500 miles from home. couple this with the passenger side air bag recall that said do not drive until replaced and it took a year to get parts. to say i am not happy with chrysler would be an understatement. the "death wobble" is very serious and after thinking i had it fixed it nearly caused a major wreck on a 4 lane interstate while pulling a 26' trailer loaded with atv's, running 65 mph and ran over an expansion joint at a bridge. i cleared all 4 lanes trying to get it under control, everyone was going in all directions to get away from me. thank god it never caused any damage to anyone's vehicles, only our nerves and underwear. this is way more serious than any emissions scam.

In motion on hwy at 55-60 mph coming out of a right turn. right side tires entered a dip in the road and heard a metal bang sound. truck began to rock from side to side, up and down violently causing loss of steering control while the whole family screams. braking made it worse. coasting to below 50 mph corrected the rocking. found the electronic sway bar hanging loose below truck. suspension bracket for sway bar was broken at rear bolt location and bent down. dealership states left front ball joints need replacing also and may have contributed to loss of control. dealership said nothing is covered under previous recalls 11v350000 or 13v528000. $3400. estimate.

Driving about 70 mph straight on a highway. hit a small bump in the road. my truck started shaking violently . had to slow down to keep control of my truck and make a complete stop to stop it from shaking.

Typical very scary death wobble after hitting a bump while making a curve at 60 mph. has happened more than once.

At speed over 50 on a interstate highway hitting an expansion joint, bumps or uneven pavement while changing a lane on 2 lane state roadway to pass car (no bumps) truck went into violent front end shaking. created unsafe passing situation while trying to get truck under control. truck is a diesel with 72,000 well cared for miles. when speaking with a chrysler ram tough ?? (my a--)truck dealer , they knew nothing about a "death wobble" . front end replaced except for steering box with front end alignment.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 dodge ram 2500. while driving 65 mph, the vehicle bottomed out erractically without warning. the failure occurred constantly. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the front coil springs failed and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 250,000.

Death wobble that's resistant to repair.

There seems to be a huge problem with dodge front ends it seems that the buy back is 08 and up and my 07 has the same problem. i have replaced the tie rod ends and the steering linkage(however i didn't get paid because i do not have the reciept anymore)and the problem still occurs i am just wondering why 07 is not part of the buy back?

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 dodge ram 2500. while driving at various speeds, the vehicle experienced severe shaking on the front end and would lose steering control. the vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to diagnose the failure. also, the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed that the gear box needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired but the failure recurred. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 110,000.

2007 dodge ram 2500 - while driving approximately 50 mph the truck wheels go into what is referred to as the "death wobble" as it's described as both front tires are bouncing up and down like a basketball. the driver has very limited steering control while this is happening resulting in a serious automotive accident. there was a recall on tie-rods but the dealership did not replace the defective tie-rods. i took the truck to a local garage specializing in front wheel alignments and tie rods. this is extremely dangerous and dodge should be held responsible and liable for this defective design and part. *tr

I received a recall notice in the mail and took my truck to the dealer who preceded to tell me that it did not apply to my truck , so when my 16 year left the dealership 2 days later she was driving down the road and it started shaking uncontrollably and she heard a snap and lost control of the steering and hit a guardrail and wrecked, if not for the guardrail she would have went down a six ft embankment and been injured. she had just driven on the interstate and if she had been on it she probably would have died. i do not appreciate the dealer putting my daughter in this kind of danger, when i contacted them about this they said well, we are only sent 1 every 7 days and they are 30 people in front of you. this excuse is unacceptable and my child could have been killed. i had to pay 933.00 for repairs and i expect to be reimbursed for these repairs. *tr

My truck violently shakes when you hit a bump at approx. 55 mph or greater. it also wanders and is very tough to steer when the vibration starts. it seems to be consistent to thousand of other complaints bye ram 2500 owners i have read about online and watched videos regarding there "dodge death wobble" nightmares with the trucks. i recently consulted with the dealer and they offer a steering linkage "upgrade kit" for approx. $1200 installed. from what i have researched is the kit doesn't always fix the problem. i have a 2007 dodge ram 2500 with only 55,000 miles on it that i will not drive over 55 mph. it terrifies me when it shutters so bad. i cannot believe a $45,000 truck new priced is undriveable over 50 mph due to the ungodly shaking. i don't know how this has escaped recall with millions of owners complaining and making you tube videos and posting on forums about the "dodge death wobble." its so unbelievable that i paid over 30k for a truck and it only has 50,000 miles on it and cant be driven over 50 mph!! please look at some of the "dodge death wobble" videos on you tube and tell me how that cant be safety issue. *tr

Reference the below complaint, and others: date complaint filed: 03/02/2015 component(s): power train , suspension date of incident: 10/01/2014 nhtsa id number: 10691476 driving approximately 50 mph on winding two lane country road, while executing curve to right, after passing over a slight bump in the road, front suspension entered what is commonly called a " death wobble". steering quickly became ineffective, braking was diminished due to loss of firm contact between front tires and road surface. wobble is regenerative in that it continues to get worse until vehicle speed is reduced to 15-20 mph. i was unable to precisely control direction of travel, crossing into oncoming lane before reducing speed enough to regain control. vehicle shakes so bad as to dislodge items from the dash and console pockets. this event repeated several times at a particular spot on my way to work, where there was an irregularity in the roadway on a straight section of paved two lane road. behavior was the same as described above. the last even was while pulling a twenty two foot trailer on a major interstate, while negotiating a right hand curve on a down hill merge lane at freeway speed of approximately 60-65 mph. again i was unable to maintain my lane of travel and a crash would have resulted if any other traffic had been near me! definitely a safety issue! local dealership assured me a new steering damper would cure the problem. (it didn't) i eventually fixed the problem myself by researching what other owners had done online (there is a lot of info on this issue!), and replacing the pitman arm, drag link, tiered, and adding a steering shaft stiffening brace. the drag link, tiered and tiered ends were a mopar part kit. much heavier construction than the original part. response to a known issue? this issue makes the truck nearly un drivable. *tr

I was driving along the interstate around 65mph and hit a small bump in the road and all of a sudden my vehicle started wobbling all over the place. had my wife and 5 month old baby in the car and finally was able to pull off the side of the road, but while doing that almost sideswiped a few vehicles and semi truck. i believe i was lucky with this. i have heard there is other people who has similar incidents to mine. *tr

i bought an extra clean 07 2500 4/4 megacab 6.7 in june of this year. had upper and lower moog ball joints,tie rod ends and rods where needed,plus new damper at 169k mi. put a set of new shocks on the other day,truck is factory height ,but has 285s instead of 265s.just today it went into a death wobble on a wet concrete interstate after hitting a very small pot hole on left. i was runnin about 70 and [xxx] near lost it. luckily there was nothing on shoulder cause i couldn't keep it in my lane. thank god my wife or daughters weren't driving! help!! i dread testing it again after someone claims to have fixed it,since it took 6 mos. to show up and only seems to happen at dangerously high speeds.

In 2007 i purchased a new dodge ram big horn 4x4 cummings diesel.i pull a 2-horse bumper pull trailer about 12 times a yr,haul a few things in bed, truck has light use.being a career mechanic i am particular about maintenance,truck is garaged,1/2015 only has 38,000 mi.took to dealership in 2013 for tie rod end recall,told me all was ok, no parts needed.during a 300 mi.round trip pulling trailer/horses 10/13,i noticed some wandering,upon return took to dealership for check and tire rotation which was also due.immediately noticed wandering was worse going home,took back again,they rotated tires again(probably back how they were),added wheel weight,still wandering,tired taking in with no results.new tires oct 2013,ruled out tire problem as cause.noticed wander more with trailer.for peace of mind took back 1 more time before horse trip oct.2014,told all ok even thou still wandering.started weaving also during trip,felt uncomfortable about stability there and back.a few wks ago taking to dealership for oil change/weaving check,while on local paved road truck pulled sharply to right,pass.mirror smashed into sign,$530 bill.lucky i kept truck on road!right away took to front end shop,didn't feel confident with dealership.they found front end parts worn,needed replacement,tie rod ends,track bar bushings,drag link and ball joints!on a 38,000 mile well maintained truck that didn't haul or pull heavy loads!ridiculous!search found thousands of complaints for this issue,many people put in dangerous life threatening situations,people may have died from this failure.main cause seems the engine is too heavy for weak inferior parts with poor design.dodge takes no responsibility and ignores issue while consumers pay millions in repairs and unknowingly risk their lives.dodge needs to recall these dangerous vehicles!fixes are there but should not be at consumers expense! *tr

I went to the dealer for a state inspection. i was told that the front end steering parts needed to be replaced as it wasn't strong enough for the truck. i asked if it was recalled as it wasn't strong enough. they said no, and the only way they could correct with their parts was replace the whole system. (they would have gotten a part from a outside parts house to replace the one bad part). i believed them and had the whole system replaced for over $1100. it was the replaced system evidently that has been recalled. i have contacted a dealer closer to my winter home for the recall. i have been waiting for over two months for them to contact me that the parts were in. at the original time of me checking i was told the parts probably were not even made yet. repeated checking is to no avail. i am told they only receive about one part ever two weeks, and they had my info and would call me. the problem could cause a crash! with the winter we have had, and we do plow with this vehicle, it should be a priority. they were contacted january 7th and we are now into march. the time has pasted on when this should be done. *tr

I have owned this truck from day one. 2007 ram 2500 4x4 quad cab 5.9. 50,000 miles. truck has been pulling to the right for a while. i took vehicle in for alignment at dealership. they set it to specs. brought it back about 40 days later to realign, still pulling to the right. service advisor said that i needed to buy an offset ball joint in order for them to get more adjustment and to correct alignment at a cost of $622.00. said that this is common problem. i called & emailed dodge/chrysler asking why i would have to buy a part to correct a stock factory item. they called dealership to verify problem and told me what the dealership said it needed and that was all. consumer shouldn't have to buy aftermarket parts to fix a stock item. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 dodge ram 2500. the contact stated that while driving 65 mph, the steering wheel vibrated and the vehicle would pull to the right. the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was determined that the ball joints failed. the vehicle was in the process of being repaired. the manufacturer was contacted about the failure. the failure mileage was 70,000. the vin was not available.

On numerous occasions my truck has went into a violent shaking. known by many as the "dodge death wobble". i have spoken with dodge on this issue at two different dealerships and they are aware of the issue but seem to refuse to fix or recall it. i have seen numerous fixes that my or may not fix the issue but at owners expense. this is ridiculous on a $40,000 vehicle in my opinion. i am truly amazed no one has been injured or killed from this issue. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 dodge ram 2500. the contact stated while driving approximately 50 mph the front end and the steering wheel lunged forward and shook uncontrollably. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who replaced the front and rear driver and passenger side tires, the upper and lower ball joints and the inner and outer tie rods. the failure continued to occur after the vehicle was repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 120,000. *tr

Driving on the expressway going about 65 mph, as i crossed over the expansion joints on a bridge the truck started shaking violently. it did not quit until i pulled over and stopped. i tried to continue to work and everytime i hit a bump it would shake violently even at 40 mph. if there would have been someone beside me at the time of the occurrence there would have been a serious crash. *tr

Was driving on us 119 in wv traveling at about 65 mph and ran over one of the expansions joints on the roadway. front end of the truck immediately started shaking and wobbling out of control, having to slow down to around 10 or 15 mph to gain control back. had owned the truck for a few months with no problems until then. i have had garages to tell me to replace this and that to fix problem, being told that dodge was aware of the problem. as of this date i have had nothing done that has fixed problem, it is somewhat better as long as you stay under around 50 mph or so. the truck has done it approximately 15 to 20 times since then, having to slow down almost completely to get control of truck. since having gone thru this problem, i have read and talked to people about having the same problem with the same model of truck and have found out that i am not alone with this concern about my truck. *tr

While driving on the highway at 66 mph my 2007 dodge ram 2500 4wd diesel started to experience the dodge death wobble. the whole truck started shaking and it was dangerous and hard to control. *tr

We were pulling the horse trailer we hit a pot hole and the truck went into a death wobble .the steering wheel just shook and the tires felt like they were going to come off the whole truck just shook. this was a danger to us and others. for you had to almost come to a stop on the freeway. i have read pages and blogs on this same problems on dodge trucks .somebody is going to die before dodge fixes this problem. *tr

Going down the highway at 55-60 and you come across a bridge landing you encounter an uncontrollable shaking in the drivers wheel and the truck wants to go all over the road and you must slam your brakes on to regain control over the whole truck. the mechanic told me the trac bar ruined my ball joints and wheel bearings he has seen alot of these dodges have this issue. and in his opinion they should be recalled this bill is going to cost me over $1500 mainly in just parts alone. *tr

I was driving south on hwy146 in baytown,tx. i struck a small pot hole and thats when the so called death wobble occured, had to brake and avoid striking other vehicles. this is the second time this occured within a week. there needs to be a recall before someone dies. *tr

When driving at 50-75 mph my truck has a very bad woble. it is very hard to control when it does this and i have to slow down in order for it to stop. with this being my only transportation to work and everything else i have nothing elsle to drive. i have took it to the dealership and one person say their is nothing wrong with my truck and the other say i need to sale it because dodge will never fix it or own up to their is a problem. i have had so many things replaced the shocks, control arms, steering rack, pitman arm and steering damper. *js

I purchased a 2007 dodge ram 2500 in december 2010 from royal gate dodge in ellisville, mo. the vehicle had a "death wobble" and the sales rep. recommended changing the linkage to the updated version that was available. they gave it to me free as long as i installed it on the truck. i did at approx. 73,000 miles. now, 13 months later and 27,000 miles on the replaced linkage, my left outer tie rod sheared off while turning a corning at around 15mph. since i took the linkage and installed it myself, it only has a 12 month warranty. if they installed it, would have been covered. as sad as their business practices are, i am writing regarding your investigation/recall on the 2500/3500 newer trucks with the same issue. i would like to make you aware of the issue that these defective parts can be interchanged on older vehicles, like mine. i have ordered the replacement moog tie rod and will be installing it as soon as it comes in and feel lucky i was at low speeds. *tr

While driving the vehicle at approximately 50mph, and after hitting a bump/pothole in the roadway, the vehicle began to shake violently, nearly causing a collision. the vehicle is still under extended warranty and was diagnosed by putnam dodge in burlingame as needing the steering stabilizer replaced. on 1/12/12, i replaced the stabilizer and had the alignment checked, and again the violent shaking occurred at approximately 50 mph. once the shaking starts it is very difficult to control the vehicle, the only way to get it to stop is to brake dramatically. in one instance, i was on an overpass and narrowly avoided a collision. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 dodge ram 2500. the contact stated that while driving 45 mph, the vehicle started to shake violently. the vehicle was taken to the dealer four times in which they repaired the upper and lower ball joints, control arms, bushings, and the tie rods. the dealer stated there were no recalls for the failure. the manufacturer was not notified. the failure mileage was 51,493 and the current mileage was 56,078.

While driving down interstate 25 in albuquerque nm i hit an expansion joint in the road and the truck began to shake violently forcing all other drivers on the road around me to scatter to avoid an accident. i immediately began to slow down and the violent shaking did not stop until i reached approx 35-40mph. i was convinced that my wheel was falling off or a major suspension component had failed but after an immediate inspection there was nothing readily identified. after a very brief search of the web it appears this is a common problem called the "death wobble" and no one appears to have been able to correct it with repairs. below are 3 of the many you tube links i found describing the incident perfectly as it happened to me. outside the vehicle view of death wobble: http://youtu.be/6lamxupbfda news story conerning the death wobble: http://youtu.be/xmftrgbynim interior view of the death wobble: http://youtu.be/gbhmkyvrihk i have only owned this vehicle for 1 year and am concerned that my family is no longer safe in this vehicle. i cannot sell this vehicle knowing that this problem is present, putting someone else in the same danger. i am more than willing to repair the issue myself but it appear that this is happening to may others with no real solutions. someone is going to get severly injured or killed if this issue is not resolved soon as it appear to be happening to many of the chrysler hd trucks 2003 to the present. in addition to nearly 50 complaints on the safecar.gov website of the same issue. dodge needs to do the right thing and at least provide the proper engineering required to let us know how to repair the issue. nhtsa needs to issue a recall and force the hand of chrysler to take ownership and issue the proper fix for the issue. *tr

Headed on interstate east down a hill hit a split the in pavement and the front end started to wobble so bad that the truck changed lanes had to put the truck in neutral and coast to the side of the road to avoid other traffic in the other two lanes this could cause death to someone . i have had every part in the front end replaced steering box / upper and lower balljoints /all tierodends/tire balanced new bushings .everything. *tr

At highway speeds when you hit a bump in the road the front steering of the truck starts a violent shaking commonly known as the death wobble. this does not allow you to steer or control the vehicle until you slow down to 30mph. i have been ran off the road several time when this occurred, thankfully i did not hit another vehicle. dodge is aware of the faulty design and will sell the redesigned parts to eliminate the issue for about $600. they will not warranty it unless it is installed by them. if you want "under warranty" truck repaired to fix their faulty design you will have to pay for parts and labor, about $1500 total. this is a very dangerous problem. there are several videos on youtube that show how it happens and the "death wobble" in action, search "dodge ram death wobble". thanks. *kb

I purchased a used 2007 dodge power wagon from a small dealership in may of 2011. i have been a loyale dodge owner for many years and don't know why. upon test driving this truck before the purchase i felt a shake in the front end. i spoke with the privious owner who indicated the tires were the issue. i took a chance a bought the truck "as is" with no warranty implied. i have researsed the dodge "death wobble" because i knew it would just be a matter of time before i experience it. i was right. i knew that replacing parts was not the answer after reading many complaints on the web. like a dummy, i took it in to a couple different places. i called the dealer and asked if there was a "fix" and they did not know of any. my research took me to a well known heavy duty truck shop. i told him about this issue and he was very convinsing that they could repair it. this tech/owner knew more about this problem then dodge. again, i took the chance i spent over $650.00. he had issued me a tsb from dodge that stated replacing all 4 tie rods and doing a special allignment would cure it. nope! since the purchace i have replace all 4 tires, steering dampner shock, all 4 tie rods, and numerious tire ballancing and allignments. i feel like an idiot. i'm doing exactly what i said i would'nt, spend big money for a known saftey issue from dodge! my complaint is the very known "death wobble". i should have wrote when i went through dodges transmission problems. i'm a hard working, tax paying, family man who pays his bills and so on... yes, it does boil down to getting personal. consumers are taking the hit for so many thing. if i were to do something that was right i would do everything i could to make it right. dodge needs to wake up and realize they have a huge saftey issue that could end many lives! please read/reserch these may complaints and make it right for the people. *tt

2007 dodge ram 2500 pick up truck. consumer states vehicle violently shakes and moves back and forth *tgw the consumer stated the vehicle has a problem known as the death wobble. if a slight bump is hit in the road, the vehicle shakes back and forth violently and does not stop until the consumer slows down. *jb

I understand chrysler has finally admitted to the "death wobble" 2003-2011 problem. my concern is, this has been a problem since the mid 1990 models and now we who own and maintain those models are left out and are still having the problems. it was their problem in the beginning and they refused to correct it. i, at my expense had the problem repaired in 2010 and once again the problem continues people are still driving the older models and are still at risk. a dodge will last forever if it is taken care of, that in mind dodge should recall all the 90's models also, it is not right. people can die in accidents involving the older vehicle. also!!! how many accidents, that may have resulted in death have there been as a result of this problem. how many involved vehicles in the 1990 range before dodge finally admitted to the problem. all the vehicles with a history of the problem should be recalled. *kb

2007 dodge 2500 diesel [death wobble] when coming to a bridge or lip in the road at highway speed vehicle starts jumping violently until speed is reduce. *kb

While traveling at interstate speeds (70+ mph), when vehicle encounters "rough road" conditions such as a sudden bump at the beginning and end of a bridge and/or rough spot in the road, vehicle begins shaking almost uncontrollably and will not cease until speed is reduced to below approximately 35 mph. braking is also affected during this episode of malfunction.

I have a 2007 dodge ram 2500 pickup. i have experienced a wobble in the front end. this happens when i am above 50 mph and go across a change in the road surface. the shake will not stop until my speed drops below 30 mph. it is a very violent shake that almost sends me off the road. the vehicle has 74000 miles on it, and i thought it may be the tires since the ones on it were the original tires. i had brand new bf goodrich tires put on it, and it did not fix the problem. i call the dealer about this, and they said it could be the tie rod ends, dampener, or ball joints. he was aware of the problem, but didn't have an answer for me. *tr

Front end wobble/vibration during moderate speed driving. after accelerating to 55-60 mph, front end begins to wobble and shake-- sometimes violently to interfere and cause vehicle to become unstable at speed. reducing speed helps but only some. have had front end aligned, re-aligned, new tires, new shocks, etc but no repair has completely fixed the problem. *tr
