 Description of the problemLike so many, i've now experienced the infamous 'death wobble.' the vehicle starts to violently shake after hitting a bump and becomes essentially unable to be controlled. All you can do is brake hard and hope to stay in your lane/on the road as you decelerate. After spending many hours on the internet and at the place where i purchased it, things are no better. This seems like an obvious design flaw and renders the vehicle unsafe. Jeep seems to have no interest in fixing the problem and it's hard to believe that nobody has been killed because of it. I wish i had known about this as i now have an unsafe and unusable vehicle that nobody seems to know how to fix. There is a tsb out regarding this issue, but jeep keeps that information 'secret'. I cannot imagine why there hasn't been a recall, if i keep driving this vehicle, it's not a question of 'if' i'm going to wreck it, it's a matter of 'when' it's going to occur.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
