| Description of the problem | My 2015 jeep wrangler sahara unlimited has developed the "death wobble" and i don't know how to fix it. It will begin to violently shake after hitting any small bump on the roadway at speeds ranging from 50 mph to 70 mph*. Shaking is so bad that i have to come to a complete stop as fast as possible because its very difficult to control while it shakes. * i only said at speeds up to 70 mph because that's the fastest speed limit where i live. I have no doubt that it will do it more violently at higher speeds. |
