| Description of the problem | I own a jeep wrangler x 2004. I have experienced the jeep "death wobble" on numerous occassions in the past year. This past sunday being the worst. I have had my entire front end replaced with no results. I have been searching the internet for answers and every suggestion that i have found has already been done on my jeep. We have spoken with a jeep mechanic that we know and he stated that it is a "known problem" and they do not know how to fix it. At this point i am extremely frustrated and i am looking for answers. I have found a website for congresswoman eshoo and i am aware of the request for an investigation into this matter. Please, i hope that you are taking this matter very seriously. This is a very scary and dangerous problem that is occuring in jeeps. |
