Example complaints

Steering: “The front cab of the truck starts shaking like a tire fell off. I had the truck to the dealership a few times and have changed the tires and other front end parts, I've changed every part that the dealer told me to change and I'm still having the problem. I started looking the problem up online and found that this is a common problem that people are having and they don't know what to do to fix it.”

NHTSA complaint #10560033, filed 2014-01, 70,000 miles

Suspension: “The truck has what is called a death wobble . At speeds over 55 MPH the truck will shake violently until it is slowed to 15 to 20 MPH. The dealer acts as if he has never heard of it but the internet is full of incidences and reports. We have two of the trucks and it is the same on both trucks.”
