 Description of the problemIn july of 2008 i experienced what jeep owners are calling "the death wobble" in my 2007 wrangler. While passing a car i hit a small bump in the road and my whole front end of my jeep began to shake violently and i was unable to control the vehicle. The jeep was brought into the dealership where they replaced the steering damper(covered under warranty). On feb 9th 2009 while driving south on the garden state parkway at approximately 65 to 70 mph i again hit a small bump and the jeep began to shake violently and i could not control the vehicle. I took the vehicle out of gear and came to a slow stop. Then i noticed a state trooper behind me. When i finally managed to get to the shoulder he exited his vehicle and approach my drivers side window and asked if i was ok and stated that he never had seen a vehicle ever act like that, that he thought the wheels were going to fall off. The trooper could see that i was visibly shaking and scared. I declined to make a report which i regret doing. At 65-70mph i could not control my vehicle. I call the jeep dealership and scheduled and appointment for my jeep on feb 18th 2009 as that was the earliest time they could get me in. The dealership is going to replace the steering damper again. From what i have read just on the nhtsa web site this is a problem and chrysler corp doesn't seem to want to do anything about it.. Does someone have to be killed before this auto corp. Realizes that this is a major safety issue!!!!!
