| Description of the problem | Death wobble. Yes it's scary. First time on the freeway, then it was easy to duplicate after that at speeds about 40 mph when you hit a bump. I replaced the shocks, and checked torque on all front end components, same problem. I ordered a new track bar (pannard rod) which i found out had been upgraded, and welded reinforcements where the bar mounts on the axle and frame such that the bolts (also replaced) fit tighter. Problem gone since, 25000 miles ago. All stock suspension and tire size. The denial from chrysler is unacceptable. |
