The truck started jerking back and forth(left and right) while driving down the hwy at 70 mph, continued to do so at lower speeds as well. Safety was at risk as it was dark and the truck was jerking back and forth with passengers inside. It has not been inspected yet, it's Saturday night 9/16/2023 at 10:00 pm. No warning lights or alert sounds were activated. This has happened before but did not last as long and not near as violent. The problem seems to resolve it's self then occurs spontaneously days, sometimes minutes later.

My truck has what is known as the death wobble. I am having it repaired again because if I hit a bump while I'm driving down the road, it'll jerk over into other people's lanes almost hitting other cars. It's horrible this is the second or third time I've had to repair this and is a well-known issue between 2007 and 2019. Can something please be done about this? This is starting to get a little ridiculous that there's so many cars out there that are this unsaved over the fact that a company doesn't want to pay to fix them

It hits a small bump in the road an it shakes so hard that I ave to jerk the wheel hard one direction an slam on the brakes to make it stop. Normally it happens around 60-65. When it starts shaking if I am in traffic it is scary. Have to pull over to the side of road. I think I only have 80k miles on the thing. It is random. Sometimes it does it for no reason, sometimes you hit a bump an nothing happens. Once it starts nothing will stop it but to slow down really slow. I thought it was maybe a tire out of balance so I had them rotated an thought it fixed it. The only way to keep it from shaking now is to not drive it.
