“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.”

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.
