Description of the problem	At 3 months old and 3000 miles, my 2018 jl started exhibiting the "death wobble" symptoms. It always happens at a specific highway speed--between 55-70 mph when i hit certain expansion joints on the highway. I feel it in the wheel, and it oscillates throughout the front end of the vehicle. I have to slow down for it to stop. If i don't slow down or pull to the right of the highway, it escalates into a violent shake. The vehicle is completely stock with no modifications. It has never even been off the road. In response, fca issued a replacement steering stabilizer. The replacement stabilizer masked the issue for three weeks, but now the wobble is coming back just as it had before. Again, to stop the vehicle i have to slow down to 40-50 mph on the highway. This is extremely dangerous, and fca is being incredibly reluctant to acknowledge and address this serious issue.
