STEERING
I AM EXPERIENCING THE 'DEATH WOBBLE' WHEN I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD. FRONT OF VEHICLE WOBBLES AND SHAKES DANGEROUSLY AND ONLY STOPS WHEN I SLOW DOWN. HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON ANY STREET OR HIGHWAY. I READ INFORMATION ABOUT STEERING OR TIE RODS/STABILIZATION BEING INEFFECTIVE ON 1999-2008 MODEL TRUCKS. CAN THIS BE REPAIRED/FIXED AND WILL THE COST BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER?
