Description of the problem	I was driving approx. 55 mph, when my 2008 jeep wrangler began to shake violently. Braking, i pulled to the side of the road to check for a blown tire. I walked around the jeep and saw nothing wrong. As luck would have it, i was in front of a jeep dealership. I pulled across the highway and left the jeep for inspection and repairs. The following day i was contacted and told that i had experienced the "death wobble". I was told i needed to replace the steering damper shock, lower control arms and damper brackets. Then i had to pay for tire rotation and wheel alignment. I have found plenty of complaints on the internet about this problem. After reading some, i am afraid it could still happen again. I am considering selling the jeep. I think that jeep owes the jeep owners a recall. These repairs cost my $650. 00. I have owned 5 jeep wranglers, i won't buy another one, unless jeep makes this right!!
