| Description of the problem | My jeep wrangler 2007 shakes so violently that i can no longer drive it. I am afraid that i may kill someone or my self or my kid. It is the scariest thing ever. At three (3) different occasions i almost crash. I heard so many jeep owners have the same problem, so why chrysler are not doing something about this serious problem? They tried to tell me its front end or a tire issue. I have changed my steering damper, my stabilizer bar and bushings. Had it aligned and bought new tires and balance. Problem still exist. The vehicle has been towed back to the dealer as of this morning. And they are trying to stick me with a bill for any repairs done to rectify this wobbling issue. I do not think that i, the consumer should have to pay anything for this manufacture defect. $40, 000. 00 is not cheap, they made a killing from me and now that i have six months left, nobody wants to assist or do the right thing. I love my wrangler. Always dream about owning one since high school. I hoping you can do something about this issue. I have no extra money lying around.
