Consumer Description

THE DEATH WOBBLE!!!! WHEN I HIT A BUMP OR POTHOLE . I FEEL MY JEEP IS LITERALLY COMING APART. MY JEEP IS 2008 AND THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE SKNCE WE BOUGHT IT ANOUT 5 YEARS AGAO. I ONLY DRIVE WHEN ITS EMERGENCY. I WILL NOT TAKE HIGHWAYS. ITS ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING. WHY IS THERE NO RECALLS FOR DEATH WOBBLE ON THE JEEP 2008. THIS IS NOT JUST A PROBLEM ON NEWER MODLES. I WANT IT FIXED FOR FREE. I CANT EVEN SELL IT. BECAUSE PEOPLE WITH JEEPS KNOW ABOUT IT!!!
