| Description of the problem | Traveling on highway over 45mpr, over minor bumpy entrance to overpass, my vehicle experiences the known "death wobble". Nbc news i-team reported on this very same jeep manufacturing issue. My rubicon immediately began shaking uncontrollably and i had to slow down to approximately 15 mpr. The first time it happened. Now, it happens all the time in the same area. The road is straight, no turns and the "bumps" are not pot-holes. I have to hang on to the steering wheel very tight and pray no car is next to me. My tires are aligned and i have them inspected regularly. My dealership said it's a known problem and they actually have a "couple of roads by the dealership they test drive their chrysler & jeep vehicles with that problem because it always happens." today was the latest event and i contacted my jeep dealership. |
