Description of the problem | At highway speeds after hitting a small bump, vehicle begins to shake significantly and it only goes away after slowing down considerably. Similar issue to what others are describing and nearly identical to the jeep "death wobble" that is fairly well documented. Started at only 9000 miles after zero modifications or off-road use. Dealer reproduced and indicated that the steering stabilizer is "shot" and replacement part is backordered with no estimated delivery date. |
