Consumer Description

STOCK 2007 WITH FAIRLY NEW ORIGINAL SIZE TIRES WRANGLER WITH "DEATH WOBBLE" AT 55 MILES AN HOURS THE JEEP BEGIN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND I HAD TO SLOW BELOW 45 FOR THE WOBBLE TO STOP. AFTER I HAD THE RECOMMENDED UPGRADE TO THE STEERING DAMPENER I WAS TRAVELING THROUGH A CANYON ON I-70 AND WENT OVER AN EXPANSION JOINT. I ALMOST LOTS CONTROL AND HIT THE CAR NEXT TO ME RELATED TO THIS WOBBLE. THIS JEEP HAS BEEN TAKEN THIS VEHICLE TO THE DEALER 5 TIMES IN THE LAST THREE MONTHS, THEY HAVE REPLACED EVERY POSSIBLE PART ON THE FRONT END OF THIS CAR. THE TIRES ARE FROM 2009 WITH ALMOST 2/3 TREAD REMAINING. THE DEALERSHIP IS AT A LOST FOR WHY THIS PROBLEM CONTINUES. I HAVE DECIDED TO SELL THE JEEP BACK TO THE DEALER BECAUSE I AM NO LONGER ABLE TO FEEL SAFE AND WILL NOT TAKE MY FAMILY IN THIS CARE. THE WOBBLE IS VERY UNPREDICTABLE AND THEREFORE VERY HARD TO DUPLICATE BUT NONE THE LESS IT IS VERY POSSIBLE TO LOSE CONTROL WHEN THIS OCCURS. PLEASE LOOK INTO WHY THIS IS SO COMMON BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED. *TR
