| Description of the problem | Moving along road at 55 mph. Vehicle front end began to shake violently. Steering wheel also shook violently. I had to quickly change lanes and slow down to have vehicle stop shaking. This violent shaking almost caused accident. I had vehicle worked on two months ago for shimmy. Now it is violently shaking. Took vehicle back onto jeep dealer service department and was told it is a tire issue. That the tires have flat spots. I have had the tires checked and balanced and they are good. I bought the tires one year ago new and have not had issues till today. I am a soldier in the army and have served 28 years. I have spent two combat deployments in iraq. This shook me up almost wrecking my vehicle from the violent shaking. Please do something about this. |
