Description of the problem	As i was driving through the entrance to the baltimore harbor tunnel, i hit a bump and the steering wheel began to shake violently on my jeep wrangler. In addition, the front end of the vehicle vibrated and shook violently. I had no place to stop, a bus was behind me, and i had trouble keeping my jeep in one lane. Since there was no place to pull over, i slowed down and when i reached a speed between 15 to 20 miles per hour, the shaking stopped and i was able to continue on. During my trip that day, i had three more episodes of violent shaking as i hit bumps in the road when i was traveling between 50 and 60 miles per hour. I had recently read an article about this problem and this issue appears to be a common problem for jeep wranglers, although i had never experienced the problem before. My jeep is a 2007 4-door wrangler which only has 10,400 miles on it because i usually keep it garaged at a beach home in delaware and i use it only during summer weekends. The jeep is a stock model with no after market modifications. I had driven it home to maryland to have a dealer checkup before i returned the jeep to the beach. The problem happened on my third trip after the dealer service but it was my first trip driving on a highway. My daughter was in the car with me and she and i were extremely disturbed and consider this issue a major safety issue. Since my research indicates this is a widespread problem, i feel strongly the ntsb should take the appropriate action to have chrysler address this issue before there is a fatality. I am extremely thankful that the bus behind me in the baltimore harbor tunnel had good brakes.
