| Description of the problem | As i was traveling down interstate 20 in columbia, south carolina traveling at approximately 60 mph, i crossed over the bush river road bridge and hit a few small bumps in the road which immediately threw my jeep into very strong vibrations. The vibrations were so strong that i felt the vibrations from the steering wheel up my arms and into my neck. I truly thought i had a flat tire on my jeep. After approximately 15 - 20 seconds of these intense vibrations, the vibrations stopped on their own. I crossed over three lanes of traffic to pull over to inspect my jeep noticing nothing abnormal. All tires have normal, recommend manufactured psi. I have all stock items on my jeep with no alterations to the suspension system, tires, etc. The vehicle has less than 13,500 miles on it and was newly purchased earlier this year at more than $55,000. |
