general problems of the 2013 Dodge Ram 3500

I experienced a severe case of the Dodge "death wobble. " this is the fifth time in two months and this was the worst yet. I was driving on a state highway going about 60. The left from tire hit a small bump - maybe an inch deep. The truck began shaking violently and was not controllable. I slammed on the brakes to stop the shaking but it keep shaking violently as long as it was moving. I finally slid off the road sideways and ended up on the shoulder. Fortunately it was a gentle shoulder. If it had been steep I could easily have been killed. I took the truck to a dealer after the last time it did this and he said nothing can be done. That is not an acceptable answer as this is a death trap.

Starting in July 2014 my 2013 Ram 3500 has had death wobble at least 6-7 times. Going down interstate around 65-75 mph if the right tire hits a pot hole the front end starts to shake uncontrollably. In order to get the truck to stop I have to come down on the brakes very hard almost to a complete stop. This is very dangerous not know when it can happen and a semi truck is right behind you.

Driving on i890 near campbell road exit east bound and I hit a bump in the road. The truck steering began violently vibrating and turning left to right and I lost steering control. The truck stopped wobbling when I slowed down to 30 mph. This is the second time this truck has done this. The last time was last week and I have only had the truck back for three days after it was fixed and it is doing it again.

Truck began to violently shake, reducing ability to steer. Shaking did not subside until vehicle speed reduced to 25mph. Dealership stated could not find anything wrong as there were no trouble codes showing. This has recurred three additional times, each time the shaking increasingly violent, and even less control of steering and breaking. Dealership states unless anomoly of can be re-inacted, no repairs will be made. Dealership service manager accuses us of faking issue of shaking or "death wobble". Chrysler representative states unless a re-creation of this anomaly no repairs will be made. We have expressed to crysler representative fear of having accident.

Somtimes problem it stared with a light vibration which I ignored always on a left sweeping corner always between 50-65mph and after hitting somthing small on the road even the center line but August 7 after hitting cow manure it started to shake violently and ended up off the road with no damage apart from my nerves I took it to the dealership the next morning where the technician test drove it on the test drive it had a episode violently shaking crossing two lanes of traffic and ending up on the intrastate sholder the truck has 17000 miles on it now as a contactor I constantly have a goose neck with heavy equipment behind it so far it has never had a episode when loaded.

The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Ram 3500. The contact stated when the vehicle would veer to the right and shook violently. The vehicle was taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 17,000.

Had been noticing a shimmy in the front suspension area. The steering wheel would have a very slight vibration after hitting bumps in the road when driving 35mph or greater. This issue has continued for months with several visit to dealership who has been unable to properly identify the problem. The problem has now become a "death wobble" that will shake steering wheel violently and almost shake the entire truck off the road, there have been several more attempt to address the issue with no resolve. Truck is unable to keep alignment, camber and caster is continually off/out of line, and has worn tires unevenly. Have also been experiencing intermittent electrical issues with dash lights flickering, radio lights turning off, electric windows not rolling up or down properly and reverse lights not turning on when engaged.
