Consumer Description

WHILE BEING TOWED BY AN RV, THE JEEP STARTED VIOLENTLY WOBBLING WHICH SHOOK MY 40,000 # RV PRETTY HARD. THIS STARTED AFTER A SLOW (ABOUT 5MPH) RIGHT TURN AND THE JEEP WENT OVER A 4 TO 5' HIGH CURB. THE WOBBLING DID NOT STOP UNTIL COMPLETELY STOPPING THE RV. THIS HAS ONLY HAPPENED ONCE IN 5,000 MILES OF BEING TOWED. HAS NEVER HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING THE JEEP ABOUT 6,000 MILES
