 Description of the problemAt 5 months 3600 miles of ownership the 4 corner air suspension went out. This also caused me to loss my electric stability control of the vehicle. While driving down the highway and switching lanes (before i know of the issue) the truck became very loose. I was driving at the speed limit and just the act of changing the lanes caused the rear end to sway a bit. I feel if this had happened to a less experienced driver they could have overreacted and caused an accident. A 16 year old would have reacted a lot different than myself a 40 year with driving experience in many different situations. The suspension going out in these vehicles is a known problem and needs to be taken care of. Dodge should own up to it. Bottom line, the 4 corner air suspension will cause serious injury or death to someone driving at highway speed when it goes out. I feel they are been enough issue with them that the air suspension should be discontinued and option giving to go back to standard suspension or warranty them for the life of the vehicle.
