What owners wrote
Driving at 65 MPH the truck began to wobble uncontrollably. I was unable to control steering and was taken left across two lanes of traffic into the median on a highway. The truck wobbles and shakes so bad I was unable to reduce speed very quickly.
I just crossed over 15,500 miles and experienced the death wobble when going over a bridge. Will call dealer monday. This needs to be a mandatory recall as the steering wheel is literally jerked out of my hand. I was going approximately 50 MPH.
