Description of the problem	I bought a jeep wrangler sahara from carmax. The car is fine drives fine but at 50 mph if you hit a bump the front end begins to shake uncontrollably and control of the car is lost unless you slowly apply the brakes and stop the car. It happens all of the time at speeds greater than 50 mph. I had my kids in the car and we almost hit three other cars when it first happened. I will not ride with my kids in the car again and i fear other 2008 wrangler sahara unlimiteds on the road. This is much worse than any toyota issue. The vehicle is a loaded . 45 with the safety off and the kids are playing with it. There needs to be a recall or a production stoppage, cars like this should not be built.
