What owners wrote
My father died after having a accident in his truck on 11/8/18. I believe it is attributed to the recent recall , leading to him dying after being pulled out through the windshield and collapsed afterwards. The stress from this accident attributed to his death.
Trucks shakes and vibrates at speeds over 65MPH. Shakes are so bad it feels as though the wheels are coming loose. Tired have been rebalanced. Replaced. New rims. No solution.
