This truck when traveling over 70 mph goes into a violent wobble and shakes and moves all over the road. Especially while traveling over 70 and hitting a pot hole or bridge seam we have been on a major highway with semi trucks around us and the truck starts to violently shake and lose control. We took it to the dealer and they added a streaking stabilizer. One week later it started up again.

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.
