Consumer Description

Driving at speeds between 55-75 mph, when the gladiator hits a bump in the road (most commonly a straight bridge gap) the entire front end shakes uncontrollably. When speeding up the shake gets worse. The only remedy is to drop the speed 7-10 mph to stop the shaking. The jeep has been taking in and the steering dampener was replaced, the problem started again about 1 year later. It seems to be worse when the temperature is below 40 degrees.
