 Description of the problemWe purchased this jeep in september 2011 for our granddaughter and within one month after purchasing it she was driving on the highway about 60 mph when the front end began shaking violently and she was barely able to slow down, at which time the shaking quit. This same incident has been occurring sporadically ever since so we took it to a tire shop/mechanic and they replaced the shimmy shock and checked the tires at a cost of $201. 22 on 6 october. The vehicle continued to shake on occasion so we took it back to the repair shop on 17 october and they suggested changing out the outer tie rod ends to see if that works at a cost of $184. 46, but would not guarantee that it would solve the problem. I have since "googled" the words "death wobble" on the internet and have found that this is a common problem with the jeeps but apparently chrysler is not acknowledging that is a problem and most people are spending around $1000 in hopes of fixing the problem although it sounds like the only solution is to trade it in and let someone else deal with the problem. We went to visit family over the weekend in arkansas and the shaking was fairly frequent and now the granddaughter is afraid to even drive the vehicle. I would like to know why this vehicle is allowed to stay on the road since it is a hazard to not only the vehicle driver and passengers but to other vehicles on the road since the only way to stop the shaking is to stop rapidly on the road totally disregarding cars in front or behind you. I would also like to see some stats on vehicle accidents, specifically rear end collisions involving jeeps.
