| Description of the problem | My jeep started to shake violently after driving over some small bumps on the highway while driving 60-65 mph. I had to pull my car over. I thought i blew a tire, but i did not. I drove off without the vehicle shaking after i waited a few minutes. Unfortunately, it happened again in the same day when i drove over a rough patch on the highway traveling the same speed. I pulled over again and waited before driving off. I did some research and learned this is a know safety problem with jeeps called a "death wobble". I made an appointment to have my jeep looked at on 2-4-2020, however the service garage had to cancel my appointment due to their internet being down. I have rescheduled for 2-7-2020. If the service does not correct the problem, what am i to do? Thank you, [xxx]. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
