Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: on the highway my truck bounces so bad i have to pull out of the fast lane. while in a turn at highway speeds (65 mph) if i hit a bump my truck jumps approx. two feet left or right. sometimes if i hit a bump going straight on the highway it will do the same thing. sometimes the bouncing is so bad my vision becomes blurred. i had my truck checked by dodge two times and they say my truck is "ok" and its just "california roads". i drove my neighbors truck which is the same year 4x4 quad cab and it bounced approx. 1/4 of what mine bounces. when my kids are in the back in their car seats they bounce up and down approx. two to three inches up and down as i drive down the highway. the area i drive in is i80 between fairfield and truckee, ca. my main concern is when my truck hits a bump and jumps out of control at 65 mph or highway speeds. i'm a san francisco police officer and i know this truck has a problem which needs to be fixed before some gets killed.*jb
