What owners wrote

I have a 2010 dodge 3500 heavy duty that starts wobbling form right to left as I am traveling along the highway at any speed above 50 MPH whenever the truck encounters an uneven surface all of a sudden. A pot hole or a bump in the road will also cause it to start wobbling from the front like crazy. The dealer states that there is nothing wrong with the truck, but there is definitely something wrong with it.
