#10995281 | SUSPENSION | June 15, 2017 | N/A miles

"DEATH WOBBLE"JEEP BEGINS TO SHAKE WHEN YOU HIT A BUMP OR AT ABOUT 40 MPH, DOES NOT GO AWAY UNTIL YOU SLOW DOWN TO ABOUT 20 MPH OR SOMETIMES SWERVING WILL HELP IT STOP. WE HAVE REPLACED FRONT TIRES, BALANCED THEM. HAD AN ALIGNMENT, REPLACED TIE ROD AND STEERING ARM AND ALSO TRACK BAR AND THE "DEATH WOBBLE" IS STILL THERE. SEARCH ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR, MAKE A MODEL BUT NO ONE CAN REALLY NARROW IT DOWN TO ONE ISSUE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT COULD CAUSE HARM TO THE DRIVER/PASSENGERS OR TO OTHERS IN CARS AROUND THE JEEP WHEN THE "DEATH WOBBLE" APPEARS SINCE THE DRIVER NEEDS TO SLOW DOWN OR SWERVE TO MAKE IT STOP.
