MY 1999 JEEP CHEROKEE UNI-BODY FRAME IS SO RUSTED OUT UNDERNEATH IT IS A HAZARD TOO DRIVE, THERE IS NOTHING ELSE WRONG WITH IT. SPECIFICALLY, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CONTROL ARMS ARE RUSTED OUT AND DETACHED AND FRAME IS SO RUSTED THEY CAN NOT BE REATTACHED. IT SEEMS IT IS VERY COMMON FOR JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE UNI-BODY UNDER CARRIAGE TO RUST OUT AND BECOME A HAZARD WITH CONTROL ARMS DETACHING AND VEHICLE BECOMING UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THIS IS PREDOMINANTLY A PROBLEM IN NORTHERN PART OF US. HOWEVER, THESE ARE VEHICLE PEOPLE BUY TO DRIVE ON BAD ROADS SO THEY SHOULD NOT DETERIORATE AND BECOME A DANGER TO DRIVE.

I WENT TO MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP, CHRYSLER TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN IN-HAND, SPENT $1,000 TO REPLACE MY ENTIRE STEERING SYSTEM AT THEIR BEHEST TO CORRECT WHAT THEY CLAIMED WAS CAUSING THE VIOLENT SHAKING I EXPERIENCED WHEN DRIVING MY JEEP ON THE HIGHWAY, ONLY TO FIND, POST-REPAIR, AFTER HITTING A MINOR SEAM ON THE HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF 52 MPH, THAT THE "DEATH WOBBLE" WAS WORSE THAN EVER, AND MY JEEP WAS TOTALLY UNSAFE TO...
