| Description of the problem | I have loved this jeep since the day i got it, at about a few years after owning it i had experienced something i just couldn't believe!!! I was going down the road at 45 miles an hour when i must have hit a bump in the road, my jeep continued to shake violently and i could not stop it unless i pulled off the road and tried to come to a complete stop. I then went directly to my mechanic who then inspected the vehicle, he found nothing wrong and said he did not experience it himself. I have replaced all the shocks,new tires, brakes, steering pin and still have that problem, i did not know what it was until i started looking it up on the internet, there is even a video of someone driving a jeep exactly like mine and it is doing the same thing. I have seen hundreds of complaints on this, if something is not done someone is going to get killed when they are in ice or rain!!!! Why hasn't anyone stepped up to have this fixed? I have called jeep on it and they said they have had complaints but no one is doing anything about it! Really?? How about you climb into my vehicle and have this "death wobble" happen to you with your child in it??? I am 2 payments away from paying off my jeep, this just disgusts me! Something needs to be done!!!!!!! |
