 Description of the problemI have owned several jeeps over the last 15 years and this particular event was the worst that i have ever encountered and was ongoing. We we traveling on dry smooth asphalt pavement on highway 82 10 miles east of basalt co at apx. 750 pm with outdoor temperature of 67* heading to aspen at apx 55 mph. All stock no add on's on this vehicle. All of the sudden the entire steering wheel started to shake and rattle so hard that i had no time to pull over and had to come to a complete stop on the highway. The wobbling would not stop until we reached 15 miles per hour. Started to head to aspen again and in another 3 minutes the same wobbling, violent shaking started again at apx. 50-60 mph. There may have been a small indentation in the pavement. This was so upsetting for my aunt, that she refused to get back in my jeep and also refused to drive back to texas after this experience. When driving back to texas, every time i hit the smallest hole i would slow down with anticipation that the wobble would start again. I drove 55 mph all the way back so that i would feel more comfortable if it occurred again. This is a situation that needs to be addressed and fixed. When a passenger refuses to ride in a vehicle after experiencing this first hand it puts a burden on the family and the joy of owning a car. I do have a dash cam video if needed that i will keep on file. This is the 5th time this has happened 3 times before august and twice in august, my jeep was just serviced and inspected on august 15 2019. I have brought this to the dealers attention and they are not aware of any permanent fixes. This almost caused us to be rear ended on the highway at night on a blind curve.
