Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE VIBRATES (UP/DOWN) SEVERELY IN THE 40-45MPH AND 60-65MPH RANGE. SINCE THE ORIGINAL TIRES WERE FAIRLY WORN, NEW TIRES WERE PURCHASED AND WERE FORCE BALANCED BY THE DEALERSHIP. THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS WITH NO SOLUTION IN SIGHT. CORRESPONDENCE WITH DAIMLER/CHRYSLER HAS NOT RAISED ANY CONCERN OR INTEREST ON THEIR PART. THERE IS CURRENTLY ONE OTHER COMPLAINT IN THE ODI DATABASE IDENTICAL TO THIS ONE.*AK
