| Description of the problem | My 2007 jeep wrangler rubicon, with 77k miles has been back to the shop going on it's 4th time, i have questioned 3 cincy dealers, the factory & they all ignore the "death wobble", i finally got the parts manager at wyler dealership in cinti, ohio today, to say "yes, we did get a technical alert about the track bar", so we went to the dealership to get the dealer parts, this is after, i have tried 2 other heavier duty units, this dealer part is not working, i am now trying the $380 kit from a shop in arizona that claims to have the fix, wish me luck, before i have a wreck. This is absurd to read & see so much online about this problem and chrysler is ignoring it, my next step is my local tv station & talk radio. How many complaints have to be made, not to mention hard earned dollars spent & someone being in an accident before they pay attention... Now having this dealership tell me a "technical alert" is different than a recall? Makes me even madder... They are just on a "fix as needed basis?", so anyone out of warranty has to pay for the whole fix? Wow where has accountability gone? |
