| Description of the problem | Very noticeable wobble in the front (possibly the right side) of the jeep when starting from a dead stop and/or turning right from a dead stop. Had front axles replaced (on less than 2000 miles on a $33,000 vehicle!!) at dealership and on the drive home from picking up the vehicle, the wobble happened when i left a gas station - from a dead stop and turning right. This seems to happen after i've driven it for awhile and the vehicle is warmed up. I'm nervous this will become a safety issue and i've seen many other posts from people having this same issue. I am not happy about a wobble in a brand new vehicle and won't just "deal with it." i am concerned that this is a deeper issue than the axles and i will be left stranded on the highway someday. |
