| Description of the problem | The failure of a 2009 jeep wrangler is that when you are driving on the highway or at highway speed in the range of 40mph to 65mph and you get in to a rough surface or hit any bump on the road the car starts to shake really violently. This has happen not only to myself but to a lot of jeep owners. They all seem to take it to the dealership and they are never able to fix the problem and its getting really bad and it could cause someone to end up dying. I myself have changed the parts to my own vehicle due to the fact that the dealership does not know the solution to fix the problem. Its not only me who this has happen their is a lot of scared people that have ran into this problem but have no way or the knowledge to address it to anyone. I just want this to resolve this before anyone gets seriously hurt or even death. |
