STEERING, SUSPENSION
OCTOBER 31, 2015, I EXPERIENCED THE DODGE "DEATH WOBBLE" TWICE WITHIN 10 MINUTES, SPEED APPROXIMATELY 50 TO 55 MPH ON A 2 LANE EAST BOUND ROAD IN MODESTO, CALIF., DRIVING STRAIGHT. LUCKILY, NO CARS WERE CLOSE BY. PREVIOUSLY, I HAVE EXPERIENCED A SINGLE WHEEL "DEATH WOBBLE". I AM HAVING TO CHANGE THE TRACK BAR BUSHINGS EVERY 15,000 TO 20,000 MILES. THEY ARE WORN OUT OR IN PIECES. I HAVE FOUND THE FRAME AND THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL ARE NOT IN ALIGNMENT. THE DIFFERENTIAL NEEDS TO BE PULLED INTO ALIGNMENT WITH THE FRAME 1/4 INCH(APPROX.) TO INSTALL THE BOLT THROUGH THE FRAME MOUNT AND THE TRACK BAR BUSHING. THIS TRUCK HAS NEVER BEEN IN A COLLISION TO THE FRONT. THE "DEATH WOBBLE" HAS BEEN NOTICED ON MANY TRUCK WEBSITES. IF I HAD BEEN IN TRAFFIC, IT WOULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. WHAT IS NHTSA DOING ABOUT A RECALL BY DODGE TO FIX THE PROBLEM, PERMANENTLY? THE TRUCK WAS NEW WHEN I BOUGHT IT. I HAVE CHANGED ADDRESSES ON REGISTRATION AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTICES OF THE OTHER RECALLS.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE ENGINE STALL WHICH APPEARS YOU HAVE INVESTIGATED IS CONCERNING FOR ME. MULTIPLE TIMES I HAVE BEEN MAKE A R TURN AND HAD THE ENGINE "DIE" IN DECELERATION THROUGH THE TURN RESULTING IN THE TRUCK LOSING POWER STEERING AND ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS OF THE TRUCK. THE RECENT INCIDENT ALMOST RESULTED IN ME STRIKING A MOTORCYCLE WAITING IN THE L HAND TURN LANE FOR THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL. THE ENGINE HAS STALLED IN SEVERAL OTHER TURN SITUATIONS CAUSING ME TO BE RESTARTING AT STAND STILL IN TRAFFIC. I FEEL THIS HAS PROVEN TO BE A SAFETY CONCERN AND NOT JUST A INCONVENIENCE.
