Ram 1500 4WD Diesel

This vehicle from time of purchase will swerve side to side when the brakes are applied at speeds over 40 mph. You can't tell which way it will swerve on the sudden application of the brakes. Dodge will not even talk about it even though I have brought it to their attention from the time I bought the vehicle. It is a hazard.
