“On pa 81 hit a bump in the road at 65 MPH. Thought I had a flat tire but was not the case. After looking on the web you tube and asking people I found that I had a death wobble. This was very scary and the kids in the back though we were going to crash as did I. This death wobble should be looked at and fixed before someone gets into a crash.”
NHTSA complaint #10641128, filed 2014-10, 49,000 miles“I had taken my truck to get it serviced because the steering felt off and when I would go to stop it sounded like metal shaking. When I got to the dealership they said the left tie rod was cracked and the steering linkage was just hanging there about to fall off. There had been a recall on it before I had purchased the truck so I called chrysler group and they informed me that it was deemed that the truck didn't have the specific recalled part. So I had to pay out of pocket around $3,000 to fix a problem that there was a recall on. …”
