2004 Jeep WRANGLER Suspension Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1043878
Internal NHTSA #	10567359
Manufacurer	Chrysler Group LLC
Brand	JEEP
Model	WRANGLER
Model Year	2004
File date	01/06/04
Component	SUSPENSION
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The vehicle has exhibited the "death wobble" almost as long as i've had it. I purchased the vehicle brand new. At 50-55 mph, the front-end shakes uncontrollably. Sometimes the shaking is instigated by a bump - most often it starts simply by reaching the aforementioned speed. The only way to stop it is to slow down (which is not always an easy option at highway speeds) or put it into 4wd while moving. I've take it to multiple dealers and mechanics, and no one has been able to rectify the condition. While it doesn't happen every single time i cross the 50-55 mph threshold, shakes more often than not. It's terribly alarming, certainly unsafe, and completely appropriate for a recall and cost-free fix.
