Took new truck on first road trip yesterday and at exactly 2000 RPM I get a vibration up through the steering column. If I turn the AC off it stops. I can duplicate it standing still and reving to 2000. Same thing, shut off AC and it stops. Go to 2100, gone, 1900 nothing. Only at 2000.<br><br>I believe I have some harmonics issue with the belt or AC compressor, power steering pump etc. But the load of the compressor is what causes it.<br><br>ANyone else experienced this?<br><br>By the way, I averaged 21 MPG at 74 MPH. I am delighted with that on a new motor with less than 500 miles on it.<br><br>Gary

The answer to the question is no. Never did figure it out. The truck now has nearly 10,000 miles on it and the vibration is about 75% better than when it was new, but still there. It is definetly some kind of harmonic caused by the AC. Everytime it happens, if I turn off the AC it also stops the vibe. I have read with great interest the number of others that are experiencing the same problem.<br><br>I have never had a reason to take the truck into the dealer since it was new and I don't want to loose it for a day over this. So, odds are something will break before I hit 36K and I'll have this checked then as well.

I have 4500 miles on my truck , Well I took a Drive abut 280 miles I lock in the Cruz control and A/C on at 2100rmp where the Vibration was the worst, I figured well if it's a bearing it will go soon and ware funny. then I could take it in and have the fix it. but since my road trip of 300 miles to and from having cruz set at 2000 rpm back I could say that the vibration has been cut extremely down. now I wondering what it is. I have a relitive that works for a Dodge dealer I will call him this weekend. but I dont have the vibration as bad. it is really slight. Oh buy the way I run my tires at 45 psi front and 40psi rear.
