Description of the problem	I drove over an expansion joint on the road with a few minor bumps after it. The front end of the car began to shake uncontrollably. When the brakes were applied the shaking got much worse. I had to coast to a stop before i could control the car. Still under warranty, the dealer checked the car and could find nothing wrong. It has happened again this past week on a 3 lane interstate. My wife was driving in the center lane at about 60 mph. Went over some bumps in the road and the "death wobble" happened again. The car started shaking so violently that the other cars around her backed away and let her coast to a stop on the road shoulder. It was very scary !! She will not get in the car again. I have only 40,000 miles on it. I have since found that this has happened mostly to jeep wranglers. The cars need to be recalled before people get killed. If this was to happen on snowy or slick roads there would be a major accident and injury or deaths caused by defectively designed cars by chrysler.
