| Description of the problem | My problem has been happening since mid-november. The problems is that at highway speeds if i hit a bridge joist or a seam in the highway, the steering wheel shakes violently back and forth and i have to slow down. The dealer and jeep have said it was the steering stabilizer, but i've had two replacements and the same thing continues to happen. It is especially bad if the bump is on a corner and one tire hits it before the other. I've almost lost control several times. This happens at speeds of around 45+ mph. It is definitely a scary situation. |
