| Description of the problem | I was driving a 2019 jeep wrangler that i bought at the end of january 2020, i barely have 3,300 miles on it, due to covid and remote working. I was driving on rte. 287 south doing 70 mph i must have hit a bump or imperfection in the road, all of a sudden the whole car started to violently vibrate and shake, i had to go from the left lane over to the right shoulder while slowing down to about 30 until the shaking stopped and also was able to exit to a local road. I've driven this highway several hundred times and never had this problem, thankfully the roads are not as crowded as they usually would have been and an accident was avoided. I have read online that other people have had this same issue of a "death wobble" but i have not received an official recall from jeep or fiat chrysler automobiles. |
