Consumer Description

EXPERIENCED THE VIOLENT SHAKING OF THE FRONT SUSPENSION AND STEERING WHEEL WHILE TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH. APPARENTLY THIS IS REFERRED TO AS A "DEATH WOBBLE" BUT A RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED YET. MY BEST GUESS IS, AFTER MULTIPLE PEOPLE DIE FROM THIS MALFUNCTION AND SUE THE CHRYSLER/JEEP CORPORATION, THEN IT A RECALL MIGHT BE ISSUED AND THE PROBLEM FIXED! I AM HIGHLY AGITATED BY THIS ISSUE AND THE REOCCURENCE!!!!!
