I was reading on the internet that doge recalled almost 90,000 dodge rams for what sounds like the same thing.. it was the 06 model but who knows u could have the same problem? try it out look on the internet or talk to the chrysler dealership? good luck!

It could be something as simple as wheel balance. It can come and go depending on your speed. It wouldn't hurt to balance your tires just to see if it's the problem

Around here you can get a 4 tire balance for about $35. If it was me, and I was about to get tires (and I am) I would wait and balance the new ones. I need tires and will probably buy some in a couple of months. That's about $800 I can't wait to spend. I went to one tire store and asked how much they were and he said " oh they aren't bad at all" He looked them up and said $250 each. I said "I don't know about you but I think $1000 for 4 tires is pretty bad."

Do I even have to ask......Why are the back tires wore out? Dodge V8 = more squeal per wheel?
