| Description of the problem | My wife experienced started experiencing the harmonic frequency anomaly aka "death wobble" just as the weather started to get cooler in nj. I brought vehicle in to perform the tsb on 11/15. The very next day 11/16 the death wobble came back only this time much worse! She was heading to a 4h leadership training course with a car full of children, thankfully she was able to maintain control and pull off the side of the highway which in itself it not safe to do. The fix that fca has published does not work - nhtsa do your job investigate and mandate fca fix the issue not put a band aid on a broken leg. |
