Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND UPON HITTING ROUGH ROAD CONDITIONS THE FRONT ON THE JEEP BEGINS TO SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. YOU MUST SLOW OR COME TO A STOP TO MAKE IT GO AWAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED FOUR TIMES TO ME. IT IS BY FAR THE MOST TERRIFYING THING THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED TO ME IN 50 YEARS OF DRIVING. THE DEALER HAS TOLD ME IT WAS WORN DAMPENERS AND REPLACED THEM. OF COURSE THIS DID NOT HAPPEN FOR THE FIRST 50K MILES, SO I MUST WAIT UNTIL THE CONDITIONS APPEAR AGAIN TO SEE IF THE PROBLEM IS SOLVED.
