 Description of the problemI was traveling on the freeway yesterday afternoon 11/1/12 driving at 60 mph. While driving out of no where the jeep's front end started shaking out of control. It felt like the front end was about to fall off.. I could not control the jeep at this point so i stepped on my brakes and slowed the vehicle to about 20 mph before the shaking stopped. Today i took it in to a local alignment shop so they can diagnose it and they told me that the whole front steering assembly is about shot! They specifically said that the most wear was on the tie rods and front track bar in which will cause the geometry of the steering to be thrown off. They called it the "death wobble" and that it was common in these jeeps. I truly think that jeep needs to open a recall for these parts ( front track bar/ tie rod assembly) before some one is killed! I do not want to think about what would of happened if i didn't gain control of the vehicle yesterday. I could of caused a pile up and killed someone if not myself on i5.. Thank god my kids were not with me and no accident occured. Please assist in this complaint as there has been hundreds of complaints about this very same problem all over the web yet nothing has been addressed with chrysler. Thank you.
