Consumer Description

I EXPERIENCED A "DEATH WOBBLE" IN MY 1996 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. IT WAS SO BAD THAT IT BROKE THE GEARS IN THE STEERING BOX AND MADE ME LOSE THE STEERING CONTROL WHILE DRIVING. HAD TO HAVE THE STEERING BOX REPLACED 3 TIMES BECAUSE OF THE WOBBLE OCCURRING MULTIPLE TIMES. HAVE REPLACED ALL RECOMMENDED PARTS AND EVERYTHING LOOKS AND FEELS TIGHT IN REGARDS TO THE STEERING AND SUSPENSION. THE PROBLEM IS CONTINUING TO HAPPEN.
