DEATH WOBBLE. I'M SURE NOT THE FIRST COMPLAINT YOU'VE SEEN FOR IT. THIS IS A COMPLETE BS PROBLEM TO HAVE ON A $40,000 VEHICLE AND CHRYSLER/JEEP NEEDS TO BE HELD LIABLE FOR IT. I HAVE SPENT OVER $2,000 REPLACING COMPONENTS ON THE FRONT-END - NONE OF WHICH HAVE "CURED" THE VIOLENT "DEATH WOBBLE" WHEN I HIT A BUMP OR POTHOLE GOING 50 - 60MPH. JUST TO ADD ANOTHER DEFINITION TO THE PROBLEM, I WILL EXPLAIN IN DETAIL. YOU HIT A BUMP OR A POTHOLE GOING ANYWHERE FROM 40 TO 60 MPH OR SO, AND THE WHOLE FRONT END BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. STEERING WHEEL SHAKES, WHEELS ARE WOBBLING BACK AND FORTH LIKE CRAZY, AND THE CAR IS HARD TO CONTROL. THERE IS NO WAY TO STOP IT UNTIL YOU PULL OFF THE ROAD AND STOP THE VEHICLE. SHODDY MANUFACTURING IS THE ONLY REAL CULPRIT I CAN POINT TO BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE AND THE HUNDREDS OF ACCOUNTS I HAVE PERSONALLY READ ONLINE JUST TRYING TO FIND A SOLUTION FOR MY OWN PROBLEM. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY CHRYSLER/JEEP...

I AM EXPERIENCING WHAT HAS BECOME KNOWN AS JEEP WOBBLE AND EVEN HAS BEEN CALLED DEATH WOBBLE. DRIVING AT SPEEDS OVER 50 MPH THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO WOBBLE UNCONTROLLABLY AND WILL NOT STOP UNTIL SPEEDS GO BELOW 20 MPH. THIS OCCURS AT TIMES WITHOUT UNSTABLE ROAD CONDITIONS AND IT IS ALMOST ALWAYS OCCURRING WHEN CROSSING A BRIDGE OR ANY WHERE THAT THE ROAD SURFACE CHANGES. JEEP HAS REPLACED THE STEERING STABILIZER AND DAMPENER THREE TIMES WITH NO SUCCESS AND REPLACED THE SHOCKS AS WELL. *TR

DRIVING ON THE ROAD GOING ABOUT 45MPH AND THE JEEP STARTED TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE (DEATH WOBBLE), FELT LIKE I HAD A TIRE BLOW OUT, PULLED OVER, NOTHING WAS WRONG, DROVE AWAY AND WAS FINE. SCARED MYSELF AND MY 10 YEAR OLD SON! I HAVE THE VEHICLE BEING INSPECTED NOW. *TR

MY JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED 2007 SHAKES VIOLENTLY AFTER IT HITS A BUMP GOING AROUND 40 MPH. I HAVE NO MODIFICATIONS ON IT. I HAVE TO SLOW IT DOWN THEN I CAN GO AGAIN. ITS VERY SCARY AND IT FEELS LIKE THE WHEELS ARE ABOUT TO FALL OFF THE JEEP. ITS VERY UNSAFE CAUSE I HAVE TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STOP. *TR

WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY BETWEEN 50 AND 65 MPH AND HITTING A SLIGHT BUMP OR DIVET IN THE ROAD JEEP WRANGLER JK BEGINS TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY UNTIL I AM FORCED TO PULL OVER ONTO THE SHOULDER AND BRING IT UNDER 30MPH. IT HAPPENS AT LEAST ONCE EVERY OTHER DAY, BUT OCCURRED FOUR TIMES TODAY ALONE. AT THE PRESENT TIME I HAVE HAD IT TO THREE DIFFERENT MECHANICS WHERE THE ALIGNMENT HAS BEEN CHECKED FOUR TIMES, THE TIRES HAVE BEEN ROTATED AND ROTATED BACK, A NEW STEERING STABILIZER HAS BEEN INSTALLED ALONG WITH A NEW BUSHING, NEW TRACK BAR AND NEW BALL JOINT. *TR

DEATH SHAKE IN FRONT END . STEERING STABILIZER FAILURE. TO REPLACE HAD TO BUY FROM CHRYSLER A MODIFICATION BRACKET AND SHOCK. COULD NOT BUY AFTERMARKET. MY POINT IS I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A BRACKET THAT THEY DID NOT MAKE RIGHT IN THE 1ST PLACE. I ALMOST WAS IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING NORMAL CONDITIONS. THEY COMPARED IT TO A DELL COMPUTER THAT IF I NEEDED A UPGRADE I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. DON'T YOU THINK THAT DRIVING A VEHICLE ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN A COMPUTER SITTING ON A DESK? I DO NOT OFF ROAD AS THIS IS A 2 WHEEL DRIVE JEEP. I LIKE WHAT I DRIVE BUT I THINK THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL BEFORE NOW. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 4DR JEEP WRANGLER NOT 4 WHEEL DRIVE. JUST RECENTLY HAS A PROBLEM STARTED ON MY JEEP. I WILL BE DRIVING AT 35-65MPH AND HIT A BUMP OR A SERIES OF SMALL BUMPS AND MY JEEP WILL BEGIN SHAKING VIOLENTLY AND WILL NOT STOP UNLESS I IMMEDIATELY PULL OFF THE ROAD OR SLOW TO ABOUT 20MPH. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP AND DESCRIBED THE PROBLEM I WAS HAVING TO WHICH THEY REPLIED I HOPE IT'S NOT THE 'DEATH WOBBLE'. FROM WHAT THEY COULD SEE THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AS FAR AS STEERING AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD HAVE TO CONTACT JEEP DEALERSHIP TO GET FURTHER INFORMATION. I BEGAN RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE VIA THE INTERNET AND IT IS COMMONLY KNOWN BY JEEP OWNERS AS A 'DEATH WOBBLE'. IN ALL CASES THEY HAVE HAD TO IMMEDIATELY SLOW DOWN AND GET OUT OF TRAFFICS WAY TO REGAIN CONTROL, IN SOME REPORTS READ IT HAS CAUSED WRECKS AND EVEN A BROKEN WRIST. I AM WRITING HOPING THAT THERE ARE MORE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND HOPEFULLY AN INVESTIGATION CAN BEGIN ON THE SUBJECT BECAUSE IT IS TERRIFYING WHEN THIS ISSUE BEGINS AND YOU ARE ON A HIGHWAY OR ANY BUSY ROAD. I BELIEVE THEIR NEEDS TO BE SOME KIND OF RECALL TO GET THIS PROBLEM TAKEN CARE OF IF IT IS A COMMONLY KNOWN DEFECT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING 50 TO 70 MPH IF THE VEHICLE HITS ANY SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD IT THEN BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THERE IS A TERM GIVEN BY JEEP OWNERS THAT HAVE THIS YEAR JEEP CALLED THE "DEATH WOBBLE." THERE ARE MANY OF DISCUSSION GROUPS ONLINE THAT TALK ABOUT IT AND THERE IS EVEN FOOTAGE ON YOUTUBE. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE WOBBLE IS TO STOP THE VEHICLE AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN. NOT SAFE AT ALL AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL ON THIS ISSUE? GENERAL MOTORS WAS SAVED BY THE TAX PAYERS OF THE U.S. THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO PUT VEHICLES THAT ARE UNSAFE ON U.S. HIGHWAYS. I ONLY HOPE NO ONE HAS BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED FROM THIS ISSUE. MY JEEP IS ALL STOCK FROM THE FACTORY. I HAVE HAD NO WORK OR MODIFICATIONS DONE TO IT. THERE IS NO REASON WHY JEEP OWNERS THAT PAY $24,000 OR MORE FOR THEIR JEEP TO PAY OVER $1000 TO FIX A SAFETY ISSUE THAT GM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR. I HAVE HAD A FEW RECALL ON MY JEEP FOR MINOR ISSUES AND HAD THEM FIXED. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE. *TR
