Consumer Description
TRAVELING ABOUT 50 MPH IN SWEEPING LEFT TURN ON SMOOTH, PAVED ROAD, VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY, DID NOT WANT TO RESPOND TO HARD BRAKING AND CONTINUED UNTIL UNDER 25 MPH. TIRES WERE CLOSE TO BEING WORN OUT, THEY WERE REPLACED WITH NEW ALIGNMENT. PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED WITH NEW TIRES. JEEP WAS AT DEALERSHIP 3 DAYS AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG, I WANT TO ADD THEY WERE CONCERNED AND VERY NICE BUT FOUND NO PROBLEM. DRIVING HOME FROM DEALERSHIP IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES AND HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE. DEALERSHIP SUGGESTED NEW TIRES WERE BAD, BUT THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED ON 2 SETS OF TIRES. THE PROBLEM OCCURS WITH SUCH VIOLENCE IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVER, PASSENGER, AND OTHER VEHICLES SHARING THE ROAD. THIS ALSO HAPPENS ON ROADS WITH BUMPS ON STRAIGHTWAY SUCH AS MIGHT BE FOUND IN RIGHT LANE WHERE HEAVY TRUCKS CAUSE SURFACE DEFORMATIES. OUR JEEP HAS NO MODIFICATIONS TO ANY PART, STEERING, SUSPENSION, SHOCKS, OR HAS TIRES NOT RECOMMENDED FOR THIS VEHICLE. *TR
