There was a recall on the front hubs, make sure it was performed.
When I took it into the dealership to get another key made the guy said that since the title was not clear he would need to get clearance from dodge to do the recall work. Something tells me that if he calls they are not going to say yes do the work. I'm not sure how I could fight them on that one.

You know there is also a TSB for the front lower control arm bushings that can cause a shimmy.
What is a TSB?
A Technical Service Bulletin. Manufacturer noting an issue and the solution.

i would check out that recall and if that's not it NEW rotors...turning them never seems to help.
yeah I have heard that also. sounds like a good excuse to get some slotted rotors!
