| Description of the problem | 2007 jeep wrangler 2dr. 4x4.. Approx mileage 65,000 miles. While driving a speed of 50-55 mph the vehicle encounters a bump in the road, or an uneven spot, a violent shaking begins and is uncorrectable until the vehicle is brought to a near complete stop. The dealership calls this the "death wobble". This has gone on for approximately 1 years whenever i hit a bump in the road driving anywhere from 35 mph and over. The most recent occurrence was the worst, it happened at a higher speed (approx. 65 mph) and resulted in a near collision/rollover. This is unacceptable and needs to be addressed by chysler jeep asap. This is a major safety concern and potential loss of life issue. |
