Description of the problem	Just purchased this vehicle and picked up on 2/14/20 and have experienced violent "death wobble". Called the dealership and they said it was from my lift that i just had installed. After a re-check, the place that did the lift stated there was nothing wrong with the lift. I continued to experience the wobble from that point on and till this day. Wobble will occur at any speed under 50 mph, however, i am able to slow down and eventually gain control of the vehicle if under that speed limits. Cannot control vehicle when engages in wobble over 50-55 mph. Took me into oncoming traffic on highway, no control of steering, braking was ineffective, steering wheel shaking violently and could not grip and i had to wait for the vehicle to come to a stop on its own (on the highway) in order for it to come out of that condition. Very dangerous and i am lucky that i was not killed that day. Since then, i do not drive over 50-55 miles per hour. It felt like the tires were going to detach from the vehicle and the vehicle was going to fall apart right there on the road. For the less aggressive wobbles that are experienced each time i drive, i do not feel comfortable having anybody in the vehicle with me because i am scared for their safety. I just brought to auto repair shop today and they said the steering stabilizer was worn out and needed replacement. I looked up a recall from june 2019 and it stated that this was completed for my vehicle. Appears this is going to be the 2nd replacement since june for the stabilizer.
