| Description of the problem | My 2004 jeep wrangler has "the death wobble". At approx. 45-50 mph the steering wheel just about shakes out of my hands. The dealership will not even check it out without charging me by the hour with an estimated 2 hr. Inspection. It's all over the internet yet jeep refuses to acknowledge it exists. I love my jeep, it's the 3rd one i've owned, but i will never buy another one. The only fix seems to be to pour money in my vehicle until i get the right part taken care of. I can't even trade it in while it's doing this. I'm stuck and i want some action taken by jeep! |
