Description of the problem	Was driving on highway at approximately 55 mph and hit a small bump in road. The front end started to shake violently and steering wheel went side to side. It felt like the vehicle was going out of control and i feared i might end up in a collision. I slowed the vehicle and applied brakes to bring the vehicle under control. Since that time, it has occurred often and it is very dangerous. To date, i have replaced the steering stabilizer and checked all other components for wear. Tires have been balanced and rotated. This alleviated the problem but the problem has since come back. According to my daughters, they have experienced the front end shake on various occasions while at school in albuquerque. I have researched on the internet and my vehicle problems has been termed "death wobble" by other jeep wrangler owners. I also found out there are a lot of complaints but chrysler jeep has not issued any recalls to fix this problem. If i can't fix the problem, then i will be getting rid of my vehicle for a safe vehicle.
