 Description of the problemI was driving my motor home in extremely heavy winds at the time and the motor home and my jeep 2014 latitude (4 cylinder) with active drive ii started to sway rather violently side to side. I was going about 55 mph at the time. Really did not know what was happening but both the rv and cherokee were swaying violently. I could see the cherokee in my rear view camera. I thought maybe i had blown a tire on the rv or suffered a major suspension problem on the rv. Was really difficult to control the rv and could have really resulted in a major accident. Fortunately i was able to slow down and get stopped without having an accident. Of course i got out and checked everything imaginable but could not find one thing that may have caused the problem. I continued our trip without further incident but to this day i am perplexed as to what caused the violent swaying. The only possible reason i can even imagine is the strong winds at the time. However, that is simply a guess and as stated earlier i really do not a valid and scientific reason for the swaying. I can however say with absolute certainty that the incident was very, very frightening and easily could have resulted in a major catastrophe. Would love to know the reason so it could be corrected. Please not that this has happened only once.
