Description of the problem | I was driving on a state highway. The speed limit is 65mph. When i drove over an overpass. At 65 mph i went over the expansion joints in the road the truck started to shake violently. The steering wheel shakes back and forth to the left and right. And the whole truck shakes. After slowing down we returned to the posted speed limit only to hit some potholes two miles down the road. Where we experienced the same problem a second time. I made an appointment with the dealership i purchased the truck from, and on the way to the dealer, on the same highway in the same spot, it happened again. The truck was supposedly repaired. However on 03/07/2019 my wife took the truck to an appointment, and once again on the same highway in the same place at 70mph it happened a fourth time. I would like to add that our tires are properly inflated, balanced , and are not even down to the treadwear indicators. |
