2002 Chevrolet EXPRESS 2500: complaints, problems and recalls

I PURCHASED FOUR OF THESE VEHICLES AND CAN NOT KEEP THEM ON THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE SHAKES VIOLENTLY AND THE VEHICLE HAS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE THIS "DEATH SHAKE" STOPS. WE HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TRYING TO FIGURE THIS OUT. WATKINS SPRINGS (ALBANY, NEW YORK) HAS INFORMED ME THAT GM REMOVED THE SHOCK STABILIZER AS A COST SAVINGS MEASURE. THE VEHICLES ARE DEATH TRAPS AND THIS NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT TO SOMEONES ATTENTION BEFORE SOMEONE DOES DIE TRYING TO GET THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. *TR
