SUSPENSION
DEATH WOBBLE. WE ALMOST DIED DUE TO THE TRUCK VIOLENTLY SHAKING AFTER HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD. DODGE OBVIOUSLY HAS A DEFECTIVE AND VERY DANGEROUS SET UP WITH WHAT EVER IS MAKING IT DO THAT. THE PROBLEM IS THIS IS WELL KNOWN AND THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT MUST BE PROTECTING THEM. I SAY THE CEO AND THE RETARD WHO DESIGNED IT GO FOR A RIDE WITH ME IN HEAVY TRAFFIC WITH THEIR KIDS IN THE BACK SEAT. I'M JUST ABOUT OUT OF MY MIND, I AM ALREADY ON MY SECOND REAR END, AND SECOND RADIATOR. I'M BOUT READY TO DRIVE TO CHRYSLER HQ AND PUT THE TRUCK THROUGH THE FRONT WINDOW OF IT. THE TRUCK HAS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN ORDER FOR THE SHAKING TO STOP. WHEN ARE YOU BUREAUCRATS GOING TO GET OFF YOUR ASS AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. YOU HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS FOR YEARS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I HAVE A 2006 RAM 2500 I HOOKED UP SOME TRAILER LIGHTS AND NOW I HAVE NO LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. THERE IS NO CODES SHOWING ON REPAIR SHOPS READER (I HAVE NO DEALER AVAILABLE WHERE I LIVE). THE INTERNET HAS TONS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TIPM AND HOW IT SHUTS DOWN IF IT DRAWS TOO MANY AMPS. WELL YOU WOULD THINK A FUSE WOULD BE USED FOR THAT AND NOT HAVE TO REPLACE A $1000 COMPUTER BOARD. RIGHT NOW I CAN ONLY DRIVE DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS OR ONLY WITH THE HIGH BEAMS. CUSTOMERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY OVER A $1000 TO FIX A FAULTY DESIGN. DODGE SHOULD HAVE TO CREATE A FIX OR REPAIR OUR VEHICLES.
