| Description of the problem | My steering will at various times, shake will driving, sometimes violently. The shaking gets worse if i apply the brakes. This is an off and on problem and does not occur everyday. It mostly occurs at highway speeds (55 mph+) i have video of this occurring available for viewing.(mp4 format) i have been to the jeep dealer (thompson chrysler dodge jeep in edgewood maryland) 3 times (have shown them the video) in the last year trying to get this corrected, but they can't figure out what's wrong. I'm afraid that this problem will one day cause me to have an accident where i will not be able to control the steering while driving. |
