Consumer Description
DEATH WOBBLE. EVERY TIME I'M ON THE HIGHWAY, 65-75MPH, AND GO OVER A BRIDGE OR OTHER SLIGHT BUMP. THE STEERING WHEEL AND ENTIRE CAR START SHAKING VIOLENTLY AND I HAVE TO SLOW DOWN TO GET IT UNDER CONTROL. I WON'T LET MY 18 YEAR OLD CHILD DRIVE THE JEEP BECAUSE OF THIS. IT'S QUITEVIOLENT. I WILL PUT THE MOST RECENT DATE, BUT IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. I'M NOT WHAT ONE WOULD DESCRIBE AS AN UPTIGHT DRIVER BUT THIS SCARED ME. THE JEEP HAS HAD NO MODIFICATIONS FROM DATE OF PURCHASE. TIRE PRESSURE IS EQUAL AND NORMAL. THE MILEAGE IS LESS THAN 8,000. I'VE HAD THE CAR FOR 6MINTHS
