My vehicle had wat is known as the 3rd gen steering assembly. Which is known and reported by multiple consumers to cause wat everyone calls a death wobble " Death wobble happens in Jeeps, 4x4s, and trucks when rapidly rotating steering wheel components cause your steering wheel to move rapidly from side to side. This causes your vehicle to feel like it's about to fall apart and you want to hold onto the steering wheel for dear life." Which cause me to nearly crash multiple times and the only way to get it to stop is to slow to speeds below 30. So I did research on how to correct this problem I found the only true fix would be to redo the whole assembly with the 4th gen assembly. Now that my issue is fixed I'm now worried about other drivers of the same vehicles safety. And wonder why no recall was made even though the dealer know of the issue thus coming up with the 4th gen assembly.

When driving over some overpasses on highways the "bump" causes the whole front end to shake and makes steering very hard to maintain. I have heard this called "the Dodge death wobble" and has been reported by many other Dodge Ram owners. I have had all of the ball joints and tie rod replaced. This is a highly disturbing occurrence when traveling at a speed of 65-70 mpr on a highway. This has happened to me more than once and is a very scary feeling, thinking my front tires are coming off. Is there a recall to correct this?

dodge death wobble. this death wobble started prior to my 100000mile warranty expired, but by the time i drove the truck home, it was over the milage. After a lot of bs and a fee, Dodge "fixed" my problem. ( for a while) They have refused to re-repair their bad design since. .I've spent many hours and money temporarily repairing their front end design. If i hit a bump in the road while exceeding 55 mph the truck violently shakes and i cannot control the direction. I went off the freeway in Salt Lake this last weekend after putting new tie rods (again) on the front end. You know what this is ! Dodge has never remedied this situation. !

While the NHTSA is looking at the later Dodge diesel pickups, the 5.9 engines commonly fail at low mileage (mine was at 100,000 miles) by the intank pump failing. Mine shut off at 45mph in traffic on State 33 in Idaho without warning.. My truck was towed to repair facility and waited 4 weeks for a substitute pump to be installed. The Turbo Diesel Register magazine commonly has articles of the hundreds of Doidge Ram owners who have been stranded and sometimes lives endangered by the pump failure. Dealers are aware of the problem, give a wink and a nod and as the part is not available, I paid nearly $1400 for a r & r fuel tank, labor, and a FASS brand pump/filter to get back on the road. This happened in August 2020 and didn't run till Sept 2020. Work order available. Truck has had 3,000 mile service it's existance, at Dodge 5 Star Dealer

THE BALL JOINTS WERE REPLACED WHEN I PURCHASED THE TRUCK, THE COMPLETE FRONT TIE RODS AS A KIT WERE REPLACED THIS WEEK NOW TO GET A WHEEL ALIGNMENT I HAVE TO REPLACE THE LOWER INTERMEDIATE SHAFT ON THE STEERING COLUMN? I WENT TO DODGE AND WAS TOLD THE STEERING SHAFT IS AVAILABLE BUT WOULD NOT WORK AS I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE UPPER AS WELL AS IT IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE THAT DODGE UPGRADED THE ITEM? THE TOTAL COST WOULD BE $600+ FOR BOTH? IF THE STEERING COMPONENTS FOR DRIVING HAVE BEEN UPGRADED AND THE ORIGINAL IS NO LONGER MADE AVAILABLE WHY IS THIS NOT A RECALL? IF THE U-JOINT FAILS THE TRUCK IS GOING TO BE UNSTEER ABLE? WHY WAS AN UPGRADE DONE AND NO ONE INFORMED? WHY DOES THE COST GO TO ME WHEN I SHOULD BE ABLE TO BUY THE OEM SECTION THAT WAS MADE IN 2004? IT IS DISCONTINUED EVERY WHERE ON LINE FOR PURCHASE. THERE FORE THERE IS A DEFECT OR ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AND NOT SHARED WITH THE PUBLIC!
