“Vibration that starts at 68 to 73 MPH. Replaced all tires-had balanced 3 times-swapped wheels around. Still a vibration in the rear of truck.checked rear springs , drive shaft seem ok. This truck has had a vibration since I bought it, 4 years old with 112,000 miles I thought it was just the mix matched tires that were on the truck.”
NHTSA complaint #11120829, filed 2018-08, 112,000 miles“Front passenger side tire is more then 5 degrees out of camber causing the tire pull, create more heat, and wear out. I contacted dealer and was informed Ram doesn't have a camber adjustment so there's no way to correct it with out putting aftermarket ball joints in I noticed it at less then 5000 miles”
NHTSA complaint #11006167, filed 2017-07, 5,000 miles“There was a recall on the track bar bracket in 2016. The dealership did not fix it then when we thought they did, and cleared it out of the recall system as if it was fixed. The bracket broke in 2018 and the dealership refuses to fix it because the truck has an aftermarket lift. Chrysler will not help either due to the lift. We bought the truck this way, and have no way to take the lift off as they are requesting. We want the recalled part fixed. The truck has had a death wobble since we purchased it due to this bracket. …”
NHTSA complaint #11073889, filed 2018-02, 102,000 miles“I received a recall letter for the front suspension track bar frame bracket. I took my vehicle to laredo dodge for maintenance service on march 8, 2016 & a total of 5 recalls showed up for the vehicle. They were concerned on the recall code (r46) and told me that the vehicle was not safe (not drive-able), if used; it could result in an accident. Days later the service manager kenneth parks advised for me to communicate with dodge corporate since they didn't know what to do with the truck. …”
NHTSA complaint #10852531, filed 2016-03, 23,000 miles“This truck occasionally after going over a bump in the road at highway speeds will develop a jarring, constant severe vibration in the steering wheel and suspension. From what I can tell this is the death wobble I have seen reported online. It is a very violent vibration that can only be stopped by slowing the truck below 25-30mph. It is so severe that it feels like you are going to lose control of the vehicle. This has now happened 4 times with this vehicle. It has approximately 44,000 miles on it.”
