2010 Dodge Ram 2500 Steering Problems

This is the 3rd time this happened to me. The first time I was driving around 55 and the truck started to shake so bad I could not actually hold onto the steering wheel, and I made it to the side of the road. I thought was a flat tire and I pulled over to find nothing wrong. The second was bad as it shook so violently, I was unable to make it to the side of the road, so I hit the brakes in the middle of traffic to stop. This 3rd time I happen to be traveling 65 mph on the interstate in PA and hit a small bump and all of the sudden the truck felt like it was bouncing off of the road. I hit the brakes to slow down and drove to the side and into a field. I purchased tie rods and actually the entire front suspension. This was the worst shaking I have ever felt in 45 years of driving. This is going to get me killed when this happens on the road. Please help.

ON THE EVENING OF MAY 1ST, 2020, I PULLED MY 2010 DODGE RAM 2500 TRX 4WD INTO MY SONS? DRIVEWAY AND DROPPED OFF MY GRANDDAUGHTER. I WENT TO BACK OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY TURNING MY WHEEL TO THE RIGHT AS I BACKED OUT I HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE I RAN OVER A LARGE ROCK, AS I PULLED FORWARD I TURNED MY WHEEL TO THE LEFT AND PROCEEDED FORWARD ONLY TO HAVE THE TRUCK GO RIGHT BACK IN THE YARD WHERE I HAD JUST PULLED OUT. I REALIZED THAT THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE STEERING. I CLIMBED UNDER THE TRUCK TO DISCOVER THAT THE TIE ROD HAD SHEARED OFF AT THE PITMAN ARM. THIS CAUSED A COMPLETE LOSS OF STEERING. I HAD A FRONT-END ALIGNMENT ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO WITH NO ISSUES. PRIOR TO THAT I HAD A RECALL ISSUE WITH THE DRAG LINK ABOUT 3 OR 4 YEARS AGO WITH NO OTHER KNOWN ISSUES. I DO NOT DRIVE THE TRUCK OFF ROAD JUST ON PAVED ROADS. THE PARTS ARE THE FACTORY SEALED TIE ROD WITH NO GREASE FITTING. I HAVE BEEN REPAIRING VEHICLES FOR OVER 40. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS TYPE OF FAILURE. THE NORMAL FAILURE MODE FOR THIS PART SHOULD HAVE BEEN LOTS OF SLACK IN THE JOINT FROM LOSS OF GREASE. THIS FAILURE MODE IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! IF I HAD BEEN TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND THIS PART HAD BROKEN I WOULD HAVE HAD TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING AND YOU KNOW AS WELL AS I DO WHEN YOU HIT YOUR BRAKES THE VEHICLE TENDS TO PULL TO THE RIGHT DUE TO THE SLOPE OF THE ROAD WHICH IS DESIGNED FOR WATER RUNOFF. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A CATASTROPHIC CRASH RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESS IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE DIES! *TR

I HAVE RECENTLY EXPERIENCED "THE DEATH WOBBLE" IN MY TRUCK. (2010 DODGE RAM 2500) I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 75 MILES PER HOUR, WHEN I HIT A SMALL BUMP AND MY TRUCK BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY AND UNCONTROLLABLY ON THE FRONT END. APPLYING MY BREAKS DID NOT HELP. ALL I COULD DO IS HOLD ON FOR THE RIDE UNTIL I SLOWED DOWN TO APPROXIMATELY 35 MILES PER HOUR. I PULLED OVER AND EXAMINED MY TRUCK THINKING THAT SOMETHING WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED DUE TO THE EXTREME NATURE OF THE INCIDENT AND COULD NOT FIND ANY DAMAGES. I SLOWLY DROVE HOME AFRAID OF IT HAPPENING AGAIN. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE VIOLENT SHAKING IN MY TRUCK WAS CALLED UNTIL I RESEARCHED THIS SCARY EXPERIENCE. UPON CONDUCTING MY RESEARCH, I LEARNED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MY YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLE. I HAVE ALREADY TAKEN IT IN FOR A COUPLE OF RECALL ITEMS REGARDING STEERING ISSUES. I AM AFRAID THEY MAY HAVE REPLACED ANY RECALL ITEMS WITH FAULTY PARTS.

THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON 2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS CAUSING COMPLETE LOSS OF ALL FUNCTIONS. THIS OCCURRED IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED A HALEY AUTO GROUP (CERTIFIED DODGE DEALER) FOR A RECALL ITEM (P65/NHTSA 14V-635) AND BULLETIN ITEM (25-002-14). THE VEHICLE'S COMPUTER SYSTEM DID NOT SHOW A CODE AS TO CAUSE ON EITHER OCCASION AND THE ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. THE INFORMATION WAS REPORTED TO DODGE FOR TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND A CASE MANAGER ASSIGNED (CASE # 27675333), TO WHICH A RESOLUTION WAS NEVER REACHED. UNFORTUNATELY, AFTER PAYING HEFTY EXPENSES FOR EXPERIMENTAL PARTS THE ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED AND THE TRUCK WAS SOLD TO THE DEALERSHIP. I ACCEPTED AN OFFER AT A STEEP FINANCIAL LOSS TO MYSELF BECAUSE TO THE DANGEROUS SHUT DOWNS I HAD EXPERIENCED FIRST HAND WHILE DRIVING. THIS VEHICLE IS NOW OFFERED FOR SALE BY THE DEALERSHIP AND I AM CONCERNED FOR THE UNAWARE POTENTIAL BUYER! ALSO, I AM CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF OTHER MOTORISTS IF THIS VEHICLE IS BACK OUT ON THE HIGHWAY. I FEEL STRONGLY THAT THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE DISCLOSED WHEN SELLING THIS VEHICLE AND REPORTED AS A SAFETY CONCERN.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN MY STREET TO MY HOUSE AND RIGHT BEFORE MY HOUSE I HEARD A BIG POP, I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 10-15 MPH. I WASN'T SURE WHAT IT WAS UNTIL I NEEDED TO TURN AND I COULDN'T. I GOT OUT AND MY TIRE DRIVERS SIDE TIRE WAS JAMMED INTO THE FENDER WELL AND THE TIE-ROD WAS BROKEN. WELL ABOUT 3 MONTHS PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING I GOT A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL FOR THAT EXACT TIE-ROD. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PART AND WHEN THEY DID GET THE PARTS IN FOR THAT RECALL THEY WOULD CALL ME. SO, BACK TO THE TIE-ROD BREAKING. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP DWAYNE LANE IN EVERETT,WA AND ASKED THEM IF THEY TOW VEHICLES THAT ARE AFFECTED BY RECALLS AND IF I COULD GET A LOANER/RENTAL CAR AND THEY SAID NO. THEY ALSO SAID THEY STILL DIDN'T HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THE ISSUE(RECALL). I WASN'T HAPPY WITH DODGE DUE TO THIS ISSUE. SO ABOUT 3 DAYS LATER THE DEALERSHIP CALLS ME BACK AND SAYS THEY GOT THE OK FROM DODGE TO PUT ON THE "RECALLED TIE-ROD" SO I CAN HAVE MY TRUCK BACK UNTIL THE FIX(NEW PARTS FROM THE RECALL) IS AVAILABLE. I ASKED THE SERVICE MANAGER IF HE WOULD EXCEPT THAT IF HIS FAMILY WAS IN THE VEHICLE AND HE SAID YES. I WASN'T HAPPY WITH THAT DECISION FROM DODGE TO PUT ON THE RECALLED TIE-ROD END TO GET ME BACK ON THE ROAD. SO, I ENDED UP GETTING MY TRUCK BACK WITH FAULTY PARTS ON IT AND DROVE IT FOR ABOUT 2-3 WEEKS AND THE DEALERSHIP CALLED TO SAY THE NEW PARTS ARE IN. THEY FIXED IT AGAIN AND HERE I AM NOW. NOW WITH THIS BUY BACK FROM DODGE, THE WAY I SEE IT SINCE THE RECALL HAS BEEN FIXED I WOULDN'T HAVE THE OPTION FOR DODGE TO BUY MY TRUCK BACK. I THINK THEY SHOULD HAVE TO GIVE ME THE OPTION ESPECIALLY SINCE MINE ACTUALLY DID BREAK WHILE I WAS WAIT FOR DODGE TO GET THE RECALL PARTS. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS I DO NOT FIND THIS EXPECTABLE BUSINESS, IT WASN'T SAFE TO PUT THE RECALLED PART BACK ON MY TRUCK AND DODGE SAID IT WAS.

PERSONAL VEHICLE, ONE OF TWO, DROVE ON INTERSTATE 87. EXPERIENCED VIOLENT SHAKING ON THE FRONT END WHEN DRIVING OVER PAVEMENT TO BRIDGE TRANSITION ANGLED LEFT WHEEL FIRST, WHILE TRAVELING AT 70 MPH. STEERING WHEEL SHOCK VIOLENTLY FOR 4 TO 5 SECONDS. THIS HAPPENED TWICE ON MY TRIP UP NORTH. I HAVE HAD SIMILAR EXPERIENCE, BUT NOT AS SEVERE. I BELIEVE THE PAVEMENT TO BRIDGE THEN BRIDGE TO PAVEMENT TRANSITION BEING ANGLED, AMPLITUDE THE SEVERITY OF THE FRONT END SHAKING. MY VEHICLE DID HAVE RECALL WORK ALREADY DONE, THAT HAS NOT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. THOUGH I LOVE MY RAM, I WILL NOT LET ANYONE ELSE DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. I KEEP BOTH HANDS ON THE WHEEL, WHITE KNUCKLED AT TIMES. I CONSIDER THE VEHICLE UNSAFE FOR DRIVING.

WHILE IN A PARKING LOT THE LEFT SIDE TIE ROD BROKE, WHICH I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO HAVE HAD IT HAPPEN IN THE PARKING LOT AND NOT 2 MINUTES EARLIER WHEN I WAS TRAVELING AT 75 MPH ON THE TOLL WAY. I HAD JUST RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE 3 DAYS PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT, AND HAD NOT HAD TIME TO TAKE IN IN. ONCE THE TRUCK ARRIVED TO THE DEALERSHIP MAXWELL SUPER CENTER LOCATED IN AUSTIN TEXAS, THEY ARGUED WITH ME THAT THE TIE ROD THAT HAD BROKE WAS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL AND THAT I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYMENT. I LITERALLY HAD TO PROVE TO THEM ON THE FOLLOWING MONDAY THAT THIS WAS THE TIE ROD UNDER THE RECALL AND THAT EVERYONE CONCERNED WAS LUCKY THAT I WAS NOT KILLED OR KILLED SOMEONE ELSE I WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT THERE WAS ANOTHER RECALL ON MY TRUCK AS WELL THAT THEY WERE NOT YET PREPARED TO FIX AND THAT I WOULD BE PLACED ON A LIST AND CALLED ONCE THE NEEDED ITEMS WERE AVAILABLE TO MAKE SUCH REPAIRS, AND TO THIS DATE I HAVE YET TO HERE BACK ON THAT RECALL SO HOPEFULLY MY TRUCK DOESN'T CATCH FIRE UNTIL THEY GET AROUND TO NOTIFYING ME. THE SAD PART OF THIS WHOLE THING IS CHRYSLER WANTED ME OUT OF MY PREVIOUS TRUCK BECAUSE EVEN AFTER A COMPLETE ENGINE REPLACEMENT THEY STILL COULD NOT FIX THE ISSUES AND MAKE IT SAFE AND RELIABLE THIS WAS ON A 06 DODGE RAM 2500 THAT WOULD GET 21 MPG VS THIS 2010 THAT GETS 14 MPG WHICH THEY SAY THEY CAN FIND NOTHING WRONG, I HAVE ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE TRUCK IN 2 TIMES FOR A GASKET AROUND THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT THAT LEAKS IN THE RAIN THUS FILLING THE TRUCK UP WITH WATER ON THE INSIDE.

THE SECOND DAY I OWNED MY 2010 POWER WAGON I EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE. IT ONLY HAD 16,000 MILES ON IT. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED STEERING DAMPENER AND TIRES. THIS WORKED FOR ONLY A FEW MONTHS. THAT WAS 2011 WHEN IT STARTED. IT IS NOW APRIL 2015 HAVE BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUE EVERY FEW MONTHS. I HAVE REBUILT THE ENTIRE FRONT END HELPED FOR A LITTLE WHILE BUT IT SOON CAME BACK. I HAVE PUT 4 SETS OF TIRES ON IT ALSO IN THIS TIME PERIOD. I INSTALLED AN AFTERMARKET DUAL STEERING STABILIZER SAME RESULT. MY TRUCK ONLY HAS 63,400 MILES ON IT NOW. TWO DAYS AGO RUNNING DOWN THE TOLL ROAD HIT AN EXPANSION JOINT AT 70 MILES PER HOUR AND STARTED THE DEATH WOBBLE CARS SCATTERED ALL AROUND ME AS TRUCK SHAKES VIOLENTLY UNTIL YOU CAN SLOWLY SLOW YOUR SPEED DOWN TO ABOUT 30 MILES PER HOUR PRAYING THAT NOBODY SLAMS INTO YOU. THIS HAPPENED TWICE IN A MATTER OF ABOUT FIVE MILES. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY ROTATED MY AXLE FORWARD TO GET THREE MORE DEGREES OF CASTER AND THEY SAID TRY THAT. ON MY WAY HOME STARTED TO DEATH WOBBLE AT 58 MILES PER HOUR. DODGE HAS WORKED ON MY TRUCK TO TRY AND SOLVE THIS PROBLEM ROUGHLY 12 TIMES IN THE LAST 4 YEARS. THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS AND THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. I WILL NOT ALLOW MY WIFE OR DAUGHTER TO DRIVE THIS TRUCK DO TO FEAR OF THEIR LIVES AND OTHERS IF THIS WERE TO HAPPEN WITH THEM BEHIND THE WHEEL. SOMETHING NEEDS TOO BE DONE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM AND SOMEBODY NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. THIS IS A VERY BAD SAFETY HAZARD. *TR
