UNCONTROLLABLE STEERING OR FRONT END WOBBLING. AKA DEATH WOBBLE, ACCORDING TO MY VEHICLE HISTORY THERE ARE RECALLS THAT ARE FOR STEERING AND THE DESCRIPTION OF ALL THOSE RECALLS SAY WHAT COULD HAPPEN WHICH IS A LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL RESULTING IN A CRASH. ALL THE RECALLS THAT I KNOW OF HAVE BEEN REPLACED. BUT I STILL HAVE INCIDENTS WHERE I LOSE CONTROL OF STEERING AND IN ORDER FOR IT TO STOP, I HAVE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD MANY MANY CLOSE CALLS, AND HOPING THAT THIS DOESN'T RESULT IN A LOSS OF A VEHICLE OR EVEN DEATH. IT'S A VERY BIG CONCERN TO ME CONSIDERING THERE HAS BEEN RECALLS FOR THE STEERING AND FRONT END. IT WILL OCCUR AS SOON AS I HIT A BUMP JUST RIGHT NOT EVEN AT HIGH SPEED IT HAPPENS AT 35-70 MPH NO MATTER IF IT'S FLAT GROUND OR NOT. THE ENTIRE TRUCK SHAKES AND FEELS LIKE THE WHEELS ARE BOUNCING OFF THE GROUND. AT THAT POINT BEING ON THE FREEWAY HAVING NO CONTROL OF MY STEERING THE ONLY OPTION I HAVE IT TO SLAM ON MY BREAKS, IT'S A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMETHING REALLY BAD HAPPENS

2009 DODGE RAM 2500 HAS WHAT IS DESCRIBED BY MANY AS "DEATH WOBBLE". AT FREEWAY SPEEDS (70MPH HERE IN MI) IF SOME EVEN MINOR BUMPS, POT HOLES ARE RUN OVER THE FRONT END OF THE TRUCK STARTS TO SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. TO GET CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AGAIN YOU MUST SLOW TO BELOW 55MPH. MANY TIMES JUST THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT TIRE AS BOUNCING OR WOBBLING, RECENTLY THE ENTIRE FRONT END. VEHICLE HAS HAD BOTH PRIOR RECALLS FOR TIE-ROD ENDS COMPLETED. HAD FRONT SHOCKS CHANGED IN CASE THEY WERE THE ISSUE NO CHANGE, HAD TIRES CHANGED IN CASE THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH ANY OF THE TIRES, NO CHANGE. HAD BELLE TIRE TECHS LOOK FOR ISSUE WITH BOUNCING/WOBBLING TIRES THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS TIGHT AND IN WORKING ORDER. ALSO HAS ANOTHER GARAGE LOOK AT IT FOR THE SAME ISSUE THEY DID NOT FIND ANY ISSUES. THIS PROBLEM THAT LOOKS TO BE PRETTY WIDESPREAD WITH OWNERS OF 2009 RAM 2500S MAKES THIS VEHICLE UNSAFE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS UNTIL A FIX IS FOUND. I WILL ASK DEALER ABOUT BOUNCING/WOBBLING FRONT END AGAIN BUT IF THIS IS ON MANY OF THESE TRUCKS THE PROBLEM WILL END UP RESULTING IN ACCIDENTS SHOULD A DRIVER NOT BE ABLE TO SLOW DOWN QUICKLY TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE STEERING. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER A YEAR ON AND OFF, I HAD AVOIDED DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY UNTIL THE LAST REPAIRS WHERE THE TIRES WERE CHANGED AND THE TECHS SAID EVERYTHING WAS GOOD WITH THE FRONT END. FIRST TIME ON THE FREEWAY AT 70MPH IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHEN A FEW SMALL BUMPS WERE RUN OVER, THE ENTIRE CAB OF THE TRUCK WAS SHAKING, OTHER DRIVERS BEHIND AND AROUND ME SLOWED AS I AM GUESSING THEY THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO LOOSE CONTROL AND CRASH. I HAD TO SLOW BELOW 50MPH BEFORE THE SHAKING WAS UNDER CONTROL AND BECAUSE THE OTHER DRIVERS SLOWED IT ALLOWED ME TO GET TO THE RIGHT AND AVOID AN ACCIDENT. SO I WILL NO LONGER USE THE TRUCK AT ANYTHING OVER 45MPH AND ONLY USE SPARINGLY UNTIL THE ISSUE IS IDENTIFIED AND REPAIRED.

MY 2009 DODGE RAM 2500 STARTED HOPPING AFTER I HIT A SLIGHT BUMP IN THE ROAD. I WAS GOING ABOUT 50MPH WHEN THUS HAPPENED. I COULD DO NOTHING BUT TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS TO SLOW THE TRUCK DOWN. IT LITERALLY HOPPED DOWN THE ROAD , IT FELT LIKE WE WERE IN A PAINT MIXER BOUNCING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE BUT WAS NEVER AS BAD AS THIS TIME. MY WIFE WAS WITH ME THIS TIME AND COULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT IT WAS DOING. SHE TOLD ME IF SHE HAD BEEN DRIVING SHE WOULD HAVE PANICKED AND MOST LIKELY WRECKED THE TRUCK. EVERYTHING IN THE TRUCK WAS BEING TOSSED AROUND. THIS ISSUE MUST BE CORRECTED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR WORSE.

WHILE DRIVING THE DODGE RAM 2500 2009 YEAR ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60-65 MPH THE VEHICLE STARTED SHAKING UNCONTROLLABLY AFTER HITTING A JOINT IN THE ROAD BETWEEN THE ASPHALT AND A BRIDGE. I WAS UNABLE TO STEER DURING THIS TIME AND THE VEHICLE SHOOK SO VIOLENTLY THAT THE CONNECTORS VIBRATED OFF OF THE BATTERY TERMINAL, BOTH BATTERIES, AT WHICH TIME I LOST ALL POWER. THIS ALMOST RESULTED IN MY DRIVING OFF OF A BRIDGE. THE SHAKING WOULD ONLY STOP UPON COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. THIS HAPPENED 3 MORE TIMES AT SLOWER SPEEDS BETWEEN 40-50 MPH. I EVENTUALLY HAD TO GET A TOW TRUCK TO GET US TO OUR DESTINATION. THIS HAPPENED ON HIGHWAY ROADS AND ALWAYS AFTER HITTING A SMALL BUMPS. MILEAGE ON VEHICLE IS 89500. *TR

WENT TO TAKE THE BUYBACK . WENT TO A LOCAL DODGE DEALER AND THEY OFFERED TO BUY MY VEHICLE FOR $16,000. THIS WAS JUST TO BUY IT TO RESELL. THEY SAID THE VALUE WAS $18,750 BUT THEY WERE BUYING IT TO RESELL AND HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BUYBACK. TOLD ME TO CONTACT FCA. CONTACTED FCA AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD BUY IT BACK FOR $11,000. THAT WOULD BE ALL THE WOULD GIVE ME FOR IT. I HAVE THE PAPERS FROM THE LOCAL DEALER WHO MADE THE OFFER. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A UNFAIR RESALE OFFER PLUS AN ADDITIONAL 10% THAT THE OFFER WAS SUPPOSE TO BE.

WE NOTICED FOR THE PAST MONTH THAT OUR TIRES WERE WEARING ON THE OUTSIDE OF BOTH FRONT TIRES. WE TOOK THE TRUCK TO 3 DIFFERENT LES SCHWAB TIRE BUSINESSES (WEISER, IDAHO, EMMETT, IDAHO AND ONTARIO, OREGON) AND ALL 3 BUSINESSES TOLD US THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE TIRES. DRIVING AT 25 MPH LAST MONTH, (JULY 8, 2015), WE ENCOUNTERED A STEERING PROBLEM. THE TRUCK WAS WANTING TO TURN AT IT'S LEISURE WHILE POINTING IN A STRAIGHT DIRECTION. THE STEERING WAS SLOPPY, WOULD NOT SELF CENTER, WOULD DRIFT TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT AND NOT CORRECT. APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES AFTER THIS HAPPENED, WE HAD A BLOW OUT ON THE PASSENGER FRONT. WHAT WAS LEFT OF THE TIRE AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE WAS COMPLETELY WORN AND "ROUGH" LOOKING. THERE WAS NO WAY TO CHANGE THE TIRE AS THE WHEEL ITSELF WAS "BOWED" IN. WE HAD IT TOWED TO STEVE'S HOMETOWN MOTORS IN WEISER, IDAHO AND THEY COULDN'T TELL US WHAT HAPPENED, BUT THAT THE WHOLE FRONT END PARTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, I.E., $2871.98 IN PARTS AND LABOR. THEY COULD NOT TELL US WHAT HAPPENED OR WHY WE NEEDED THESE PARTS. THEY FOUND THAT THE ADJUSTER BAR WAS LOOSE AND ALL THE FRONT END NEEDED ALL NEW PARTS. WE DID TAKE IT IN FOR ALL THE "RECALLS" ON THE FRONT END AND NOW FIAT/CHRYSLER IS OFFERING TO "BUY BACK" THESE VEHICLES THAT WEREN'T FIXED. OUR QUESTION IS, CAN WE BE REIMBURSED FOR THESE REPAIR COSTS DUE TO THESE "FAULTY FRONT END STEERING REPAIR RECALLS". WE BELIEVE THAT WE ARE ONE OF THE CUSTOMERS THAT HAD THE RECALLS DONE, BUT EITHER INCORRECTLY OR WITH FAULTY RECALL PARTS.......UPDATED 09/22/15 *BF UPDATED 12/12/2017*CN
