Consumer Description

DRIVING WESTBOUND ON M-59 IN HARTLAND, MI I HIT A VERY SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD AND THE JEEP STARTED TO SHUDDER VERY VIOLENTLY. I HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STOP IN ORDER FOR THE SHUDDER TO GO AWAY. AFTER DOING MUCH RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET, I HAVE NOW FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS CALLED THE DEATH WOBBLE AND IS A HIGHLY COMMON PROBLEM THAT CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF AND HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING TO LET THE PUBLIC KNOW OF THE ISSUE.
