Consumer Description

I'VE HEARD THIS CALLED THE "DODGE DEATH WOBBLE". IT'S A VIOLENT UNCONTROLLED FRONT END SHIMMY OR WOBBLE THAT STARTS AT HIGHWAY SPEED WHEN THE VEHICLE HITS A MINOR BUMP OR DEPRESSION. IT DOESN'T STOP SHAKING UNTIL SLOWING TO NEAR STOP. USUALLY A PANIC STOP ON THE FREEWAY. VERY DANGEROUS.
