Front track bar bushings are wore out after less than 45000 miles. The front end makes a noise and shakes when you turn the wheel. This happens both stopped and at any speed.

Vehicle was in for service and mechanic informed me of front tires are cupping significantly. They informed me this is not new for a new truck. Took the truck to dodge they told me it is perfectly normal if you don't rotate tires enough. This is very inconsistent. I did rotate tires but within 5000 mile problem. Represents itself and tires have to be rebalance to off set uneven wear.

When in motion, the truck will suddenly break into a violent "death wobble". It has occurred at speeds anywhere between 40 and 75 and not always when a slight bump in the road it hit.

Front suspension, specifically steering system goes into a severe wobble or shimmy when a dip or pothole is driven over. The side to side wobble is so severe you have to come to a complete or near complete stop to get the truck to come out of it. I've had it to the dodge dealer twice and a local suspension/alignment shop and they cannot locate the problem. Looking online this is exactly what's been described multiple times as the dodge ram "death wobble".
