| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: This is a common problem with this year truck relating to faulty front suspension components. i have experienced the so called, "death wobble" at least 30 or more time on freeways all over the state. problem occurs when traveling 65 mph +/- 2 and driving over uneven surfaces. causes truck to shake violently and veer to the right or the left. only way to stop is to let off the accelerator and let coast to 25 to 30 mph which is real safe on the freeway. this may have been caused or caused failure of track bar, which is also listed in your complaint section multiple times. the manufacturer blew off my claim and told me the vehicle was road worthy. they referred me to this site so i could read the hundreds of complaints i guess? this problem started around 45,000 miles and continuously gets worse. since they really don't care i've ordered an after market track bar made by a superior designer. *jb |
