general problems of the 2010 Dodge Ram 2500

Tl-the contact owns a 2010 Dodge ram. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 13v529 (suspension) however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Sw.

Contacted dealer vehicle perched shepherd team auto plaza, 1819 south main, fort scott kansas 66701 (888-211-6244) weekly since Feb. 1, 2014 and they can't provide the service for the recall n49. Many excuses even after my persistence.

Wife first experienced when taking daughter to doctor and the whole truck wobbled violently said was possible it small bump on a left turn going about 45-50 mph today 2/10/13 was on way home and was doing about 50 or so and on left hand turn hit slight bump and whole truck started violently shaking called dealer today and told the issue and asked if this was a common problem and they said not that they have heard of and did some quick research just now and found that it's possible Dodge death wobble and I feel if I had my three daughters in truck they would have been freightened and luckily I was I good control otherwise I probably wouldn't be sending this now thanks for listening hope Dodge makes this better from forums read on doesn't seem like they want or care about the issue.

Received safety recall n49/NHTSA 13v-529 for the left tie rod of my Dodge ram in early January of this year. Called local dealer yakima Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram (509-248-1300) beginning 1/6/14 and was told the necessary repair parts had not been supplied by Chrysler and to call back the following week. The next week when I called I received the same information. This went on for several more weeks until I gave up my weekly calls. I called the dealer again in April of this year and was told Chrysler was only supplying one set of parts on this recall a week and that I could be added to a list and would be called when the parts were available for my repair. At that time they advised there were approximately 50 others ahead of me on the list. Have heard nothing since that time but today received another notice on the recall from Chrysler, apparently to remind me that I have not had the work done, despite the fact that they are not providing the appropriate parts to their dealers to perform the repair.

Driving on the baltime beltway (695) after driving over a couple of bumps in the road my steering wheel started to shake violently out of control and the truck was shaking and bouncing all over the road like a jumping jack. Other cars that were around me at the time were getting out of my proximity as I was all over the road and had to slow down to almost a stop. I actually ended up on the shoulder of the road when it was all over. This highway is 55 mph and usually congested.

On my way to york, PA a second "death wobble" occurred. This time on I 83. Speed limit is 65 mph. I drove over a couple of bumps in the road and my steering wheel was shaking violently as well as the truck bouncing all over the road like a jumping jack. An 18 wheeler was behind me at the time and almost rear-ended me as a result. I had to slow down to almost nothing to get it to stop and was forced into the shoulder. This is the time this happened to me today and the fourth time in one week! there is a serious problem with this truck as I have seen numerous complaints online about this exact same thing occuring to this vehicle.

Travelling 60 mph on a two lane county road in a rural area, speed limit 55mph. Drove over a slight bump in the road that was over a small creek when the steering wheel suddenly and violently started to wobble back and forth and the vehicle started to shake violently as well. The vehicle was uncontrollable and started to force me off the road toward a wooded area. Luckily I was able to slow down enough for the "death wobble" to subside enough for me to regain control. I was on my way to perform a chore and had to return from this chore on the same road. The exact same thing happened on the return trip. Violent shaking of the steering wheel and vehicle and total loss of control. The same thing happened about two months ago on an interstate higway. The road surface was poorly maintained and the "death wobble" occured when I drove over an imperfection on the road surface. Luckily no other vehicles were next to me or an accident surely would have occurred. This first event I thought was just by chance, but after the last event happening twice on the same day has me convinced that there is a flaw in the steering and/or suspension. I went to the dealer where I bought the truck after doing a web search on problems with this vehicle (many complaints posted detailing exactly what had occurred with me) and told the service rep what had happened and she said she had heard no such complaints from others. The roads in my county are very rural and well maintained. No problems on well maintained roads, however, on poorly maintained roads or over expansion joints or potholes going 60 mph will throw this vehicle into a "death wobble" as it has been called.

I was driving in my truck with my friend on sr 101. Approximate speed was 60 mph. We went around a bend in the road over a concrete bridge expansion joint where the pavement changed levels. The truck jumped and began violently vibrating and forced me into passenger side guard rail of the bridge. The vibrating continued until I slowed down to approx 10 mph. The problem I thought was fixed with new steering stabilizer and shocks, a. K. A. The death wobble has returned. After research on the internet, I called my local Dodge dealership with skepticism. He knew of no recalls and it would not be covered under warranty. I do not feel safe in the vehicle and do not want my family riding in the truck. I have escaped injury to this point. This is my 1st posting. Please help. What should I do?.

Received first notice of left tie rod ball stud (recall n49) recall in early March 2014. Scheduled and took vehicle into dealership for repairs. When brought in for repairs, I was told the replacement part has been recalled again and Dodge was waiting for new parts. Have called and checked every 1-2 weeks on status with little or no information just saying they are waiting for parts and they are only getting one part every 7 days and we are on the list. . . Not releasing where on the list, how many are on the list or when I can expect the service. Dodge has told me the tie rod is bad and that they cannot guarantee my safety or recommend the use of my truck. This vehicle is used for construction and personal use, including hauling and towing and I do not feel safe driving it on the road, for either myself, family or other people. This is the only vehicle I have for work, and cannot afford another temporary vehicle.

I was driving in my truck with my wife on sr 25 in a construction zone. I was hauling my 13 ft detro trailer. Approximate speed was 55 mph. We went around a bend in the road where the pavement changed levels. The truck jumped and began violently vibrating. The vibrating continued until I slowed down to approx 10 mph. The problem I thought was fixed a. K. A. The death wobble has returned. I called my local Dodge dealership with skepticism. The dealer owner stated they could not fix the problem unless they were able to duplicate the problem. He was doubtful they would be able to duplicate it. The owner called his district manager who stated he has never heard of this problem (but the owner said he has). The owner suggested I begin video taping while driving. I have been video taping each time I enter the interstate so I can "catch" the death wobble on video. At this point, I do not feel safe in the vehicle and do not want my family riding in the truck. I have escaped accident to this point because there weren't any vehicles around me at the time the death wobble occurred. This is my 3rd posting. Please help. What should I do?.

I was driving with my son in the vehicle getting on I-65 going sb. I crossed over an expansion and the truck starting violently jumping and vibrating. It threw me far enough that I was almost in the grass. Once I applied the brakes, the truck slid completely into the grass. The vibrating continued until I was almost completely stopped (approx 10 mph). I new immediately something was wrong with this particular truck. I took the truck to my local Dodge dealer and explained what had happened. The invoice reads "customer the front end wobbles bad from 65 mph down to 10 mph, after hitting a bump". "replaced front brake calipers and hoses. Add fluid". I did not believe this was the problem so I began researching to see if anyone had experienced the same issue. Turns out many other Dodge trucks have experienced this issue. So much so that it has been given the name "the death wobble". In my research I have found numerous fixes for this problem but they are all after market parts. I continued to drive my truck hoping the problem was resolved. I have driven the same route many times without issue and I assumed the problem was resolved.

I was traveling on the interstate at 70 mph hit a small bump and the front end started shaking violently,the steering wheel was almost uncontrollable. I had to pull off and stop before it would stop. Then proceeding on didn't have anymore problems yet.

Horrible squeak coming from somewhere in the driver side rear of the cab. The dealership and myself cannot locate the source of the noise. I feel like im in a seinfield episode. Please someone help me!!!!!.

I was on the highway, it was raining and hit a small bump and the whole truck started violently bouncing everywhere (inside the cab and outside) like all four tires stopped turning. It was so bad that my briefcase, cell phone and water got thrown. I couldn't steer too well so I hit the brakes and stopped on the highway then went very slow to a gas station and two strangers followed me to see if I was okay and they both said that they think my truck went into 4-wheel drive by itself because my tires weren't turning. I took it into the wyatt arp dealer, they gave me a rental for 2 days. They said they could not duplicate and my 4-wheel drive problem. The paperwork says, "customer states was traveling 75 mph on hwy I-10 when raining rear tires locked up after hitting bump. Unable to duplicate customer concern at this time".

I was driving my normal route home on I-65. Just before my exit, there is an overpass on I-65 you must go over. The expansion joint is diagonal to the interstate. I have gone over this joint thousands of times before,in my other vehicle. Driving my new truck, I went over the joint and the truck jumped to the right. It scared me but I assumed it was because I wasn't accustomed to driving the new vehicle.

At or around 55 to 60 miles per hour when hitting a irregularity in roadway truck will bounce out of control untill I slam the brakes and slow down to 35 miles per hour . The truck is completely stock. The deafrlership said it was the tires. These are the stock tires on the truck and they are in good shape. I do not fell I should have to replace stock tires on a new truck to stop it from shimming when over 55 mile an hour. This was a expensive truck and I am very disappointed in it. I feel the dealship should stand behind it. Please getg back to me on my next step. I am very unhappy with the truck and the service I have received. This is not my first Dodge truck.
