NHTSA Complaint #10469603 — 2009 JEEP WRANGLER

WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH ON A SLIGHT TURNING RADIUS, THE RIGHT FRONT STARTED TO VIBRATE, THEN IT WENT TO THE LEFT SIDE, BACK TO THE LEFT SIDE,BACK AND FORTH. EACH TIME IT TRANSFERRED, IT INCREASED.THE SEVERITY OF THE WOBBLE EFFECT. I HAD TO PUT A "DEATH GRIP" ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY WAY THAT I COULD STOP THE "DEATH WOBBLE" WAS TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND STOP THE VEHICLE. IT WAS LIKE A DEMON TOOK CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE NEXT DAY THE VEHICLE DID THE SAME THING WHILE I WAS DRIVING WITH MY DAUGHTER(AGE 29). THIS TIME ON A STRAIGHT SECTION OF ROAD GOING AT 45 MPH. SHE THOUGHT THAT THE TIRE FELL OFF! AGAIN, THE ONLY WAY THAT I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE WOBBLE WAS TO STOP THE VEHICLE. BOTH OF THESE INCIDENTS COULD HAVE ENDED IN SERIOUS ACCIDENTS! THIS IS A WELL MAINTAINED STOCK VEHICLE WITH BALANCED TIRES. *TR
