| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | When driving at a highway speeds of 70-80 mph and hitting a bump the jeep goes into convulsions "death wobble" to the point we have to pull off the side of the road because we are so scared, this has happened to us several times since owning it. We don't feel safe driving this 2018 jeep wrangler jl. Jeep does have a recall for the steering damper but i don't feel this will fix the issue as we already had this replaced once. The other issue is that the steering wanders at any speed, always having to re-correct the steering, making it very difficult to drive and seemingly unsafe. |
