2018 Jeep Wrangler Complaint Log

I FILED A COMPLAINT ON THE LOOSE STEERING AS IT FEELS LIKE THERE IS A DEAD SPOT WHILE DRIVING AND IT DOESN'T RESPOND, IN DECEMBER OF LAST YEAR. IT'S LIKE SEVERAL DEGREES OF CONSTANTLY TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL BEFORE IT REGISTERS. LIKE IN AN OLD MOVIE WHERE YOU SEE THEM ALWAYS HAVING TO KEEP TURNING THE WHEEL BACK AND FORTH EXCESSIVELY. THIS HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED AS OF YET. FAST FORWARD TO THE TERM DEATH WOBBLE THAT IS PLAGUING MY JEEP WITH 9100 MILES ON IT. DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE DAMPNER. BUT THAT DID NOTHING TO CORRECT THE VIOLENT SHAKING WHEN HITTING AN EXPANSION JOINT OR POTHOLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I'M DISGUSTED AT HOW AWFUL THIS IS ON A NEW VEHICLE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY WORN PARTS ON MY JEEP WITH UNDER 10K MILES. I WANT ANSWERS, SOLUTIONS, A FOLLOW UP BY SOMEONE WHO IS IN CHARGE OF THIS. IT'S SCARY TO DRIVE BETWEEN THE EXCESSIVE PLAY AND DEATH WOBBLE. IT'S LIKE I'M DRIVING AN OLD JUNKER, DEFINITELY NOT A 40K NEW JEEP.

CHANGING LANES ON HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH LOST TOTAL CONTROL OF FRONT END. VIOLENT SHAKING AND NEARLY CRASHED. STEERING WHEEL VIOLENTLY SHAKING AND COULD NOT STEER.

THERE IS A LOT OF PLAY IN THE STEERING AND IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO KEEP THE VEHICLE STRAIGHT. IT SEEMS TO FLOAT ALL OVER THE ROAD AND REQUIRES CONSTANT STEERING CORRECTION. THIS HAS ALMOST CAUSE MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS. CITY AND HIGHWAY DRIVING.

WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS STEERING SEEMS LOOSE AND NOT VERY RESPONSIVE. IT TAKES A GOOD DEAL OF TURN IN THE WHEEL FOR IT TO MOVE THE WHEELS A LITTLE. IF YOU HAVE TO MOVE QUICKLY THE WHEEL DOES NOT REACT. I FEEL IT IS UNSAFE BECAUSE IF YOU NEEDED TO GET OUT OF THE WAY AND MOVE THE WHEEL IT DOES NOT RESPOND, IN MY OPTION THE STEERING IS TOO LOOSE AND DOES NOT HAVE ANY RESISTANCE BEHIND THE WHEEL AND IS DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

WANDERS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. CANT MAINTAIN CENTER OF ROAD AND HAVE TO APPLY CONSTANT CORRECTIONS TO STEERING. FEELS LIKE DRIVING ON ICE. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY WOULD NOT LOOK AT THE PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH JEEP KNOWS WELDS MAY BE BAD AND THE PROBLEM IS COMMON. VERY DANGEROUS

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 70-75 MPH AND THE FRONT END STARTED TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. STEERING WHEEL AND FRONT END WERE VISIBLY SHAKING. HAD TO PULL TO SIDE OF ROAD. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY IN WHICH THEY STATED IT WAS THE "DEATH WOBBLE". PARTS NOT AVAILABLE TO FIX FOR 5-6 MORE MONTHS (APRIL - MAY 2019). COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE CONSIDERING IT'S BRAND NEW, I COMMUTE 5 DAYS A WEEK (120 HIGHWAY MILES A DAY) AND ALSO TRANSPORT TWO SMALL CHILDREN TO SCHOOL EVERY DAY. I ALSO SUFFER FROM PANIC ATTACKS, IN WHICH THIS INCIDENT BROUGHT ON A FULL BLOWN ATTACK. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY IN THIS VEHICLE.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, WHEN TRYING TO SLOW DOWN AND APPLYING BRAKES VEHICLE WAS VEERING TO THE RIGHT. ALMOST WENT OFF ROAD AND HIT GUARD RAIL. VEHICLE ALSO HAS AN ISSUE WITH STEERING ON STRAIGHT AWAYS WANTS TO WANDER ALL OVER HIGHWAY, HAD TIRES/WHEELS/AND ALIGNMENT INSPECTED EVERYTHING CAME BACK FINE NO ANSWER FOR WHY VEHICLE WANDERS AND VEHICLE CONSTANTLY GOES RIGHT WHILE BRAKING

BRAND NEW JEEP WRANGLER WOULD SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHEN HITTING A SMALL BUMP WHEN TRAVELING ON HIGHWAYS. LOOKED UP SYMPTOMS AND IT SOUNDS LIKE WHAT IS CALLED A "DEATH WOBBLE". HAD TO SLOW DOWN TO UNDER 30 MPH TO GET IT TO STOP.

AT 60 MILES PER HOUR ON THE INTERSTATE VEHICLE STARTED VIOLENTLY SHAKING AND VIBRATING. HAD TO SLOW DOWN AND PULL OVER. JEEP ONLY HAS 4300 MILES AND IS STOCK WITH NP MODIFICATIONS.

WHEN DRIVING ON ANY TYPE OF ROAD, THE JEEP WANDERS ALL OVER THE LANE AND TAKES CONSTANT STEERING WHEEL INPUT TO MAINTAIN THE VEHICLE IN ITS LANE. THE FASTER THE SPEED ABOVE 30, THE WORSE THE CONDITION IS. THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL AT NORMAL SPEEDS ALMOST LIKE IT IS NOT CONNECTED. IT IS VERY TIRING TO DRIVE ON THE EXPRESSWAY BECAUSE IT NEEDS CONSTANT COURSE CORRECTION. SEVERAL TIMES IT HAS WANDERED OFF OF A ROAD SHOULDER ON ITS OWN. WE HAVE HAD OVER 17 VEHICLES OVER THE YEARS AND THIS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT BEHAVES THIS WAY. AT TIMES IT FEELS VERY, VERY UNSAFE, SCARY AND TIRING TO DRIVE. JUST FEELS LIKE SOMETHING IS EXTREMELY WRONG WITH THE STEERING AND IT IS NOT TRUSTWORTHY AND MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN I81 IN PA. IT WAS APPROX. 35 DEGREES OUTSIDE AND RAINING. I WAS DRIVING 69-70 MPH AND ENTERED INTO A LEFT HAND CURVE. MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP TO WHERE I COULDN'T GET IT TO TURN LEFT ANY FURTHER THAN THE SLIGHT LEFT NEEDED FOR THE CURVE. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS OF TRYING TO OVER POWER THE STUCK STEERING WHEEL FEELING, IT RETURNED TO A NORMAL STEERING WHEEL FEELING. I HAVE UPLOADED A VIDEO I TOOK. I TOOK THE VIDEO AFTER IT HAPPENED TO ME THE FIRST TIME GOING STRAIGHT DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 65-70 MPH. HERE IS THE LINK TO THE VIDEO: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=YZY8X7C01-S

MY STEERING SEEMS TO BIND WHEN I TURN THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT. IT WILL BIND THEN LET GO CAUSING OVERSTEERING. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. THE PROBLEM IS ON BOTH CITY STREETS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. THERE WERE TWO OCCASIONS WHEN THE STEERING WOULD ONLY ALLOW ME TO TURN THE WHEEL 1/4 TO THE LEFT. I HAD TO USE BOTH HANDS AND PULL REAL HARD TO TURN THE JEEP A FRACTION. IT SEEMS LIKE THE PROBLEM IS WORSE WHEN IT IS COLD. THIS PROBLEM WAS ALSO ON BOTH CITY STREETS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS PROBLEM IS ALSO INTERMITTENT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. BOTH PROBLEMS SEEM TO BE GETTING WORSE. THE VEHICLE IS IN THE DEALERSHIP NOW BUT THEY HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEMS.

TRAVELING ABOUT 60 MPH ON A RURAL TWO LANE ROAD A TRUCK APPROACHING FROM OPPOSITE DIRECTION PUSHED WIND INTO FRONT OF THE JEEP CAUSING HOOD TO FLUTTER UP APPROX ONE INCH. STARTLING ME DRIVING.

WHEN HITTING BUMP AT HIGHWAY SPEED STEERING BEGINS SHAKE. I HAVE TO SLOW DOWN TO GET IT TO STOP

JEEP STEERING WHEEL AND FRONT END BEGIN SHAKING VIOLENTLY WHEN A SMALL BUMP IS STRUCK AT HIGHER SPEEDS. THIS FORCES THE DRIVER TO SLOW TO UNSAFE SPEEDS ON THE FREEWAY POTENTIALLY CREATING ACCIDENTS.. JEEP CURRENTLY WILL NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM, BUT ONLY ALLOWS THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE THE STEERING DAMPER, WHICH FAILS WITHIN THE SAME WEEK.

HI, I PURCHASED A 2018 JEEP WRANGLE JLU NEW FROM YOU DEALERSHIP AND I HAVE BEEN HAVING SEVERAL SIGNIFICANT ISSUES WITH IT RECENTLY. THE MOST CONCERNING IS SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THE STEERING. AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IF YOU HIT A BUMP LIKE AN EXPANSION JOINT ; THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES AGGRESSIVELY AND CAUSES YOU TO TEMPORARILY LOSE CONTROL OF THE JEEP AND YOU HAVE TO SLOW DOWN FOR IT TO SELF CORRECT. IT IS SIMILAR TO DEATH WOBBLE IN A LIFTED JEEP BUT THIS ONE IS STOCK. ALSO, WITH THE COLDER WEATHER THE STEERING WHEEL IS NOT TURNING FREELY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT IS ALMOST AS IF THE POWER STEERING RANDOMLY TURNS OFF BUT THE WHEEL IS EVEN MORE DIFFICULT TO TURN. THE STEERING GOES BACK TO NORMAL AT SLOW SPEEDS. AND FINALLY THE RADIO AND TOUCH SCREEN ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE FM RADIO RANDOMLY COMPLETELY LOSES SIGNAL AND CAN NOT FIND STATIONS. RANDOMLY EVEN WITH THE VOLUME ALL THE WAY UP TO 30 YOU CAN BARELY HEAR THE RADIO. SEVERAL TIMES THE SCREEN HAS MADE A POP NOISE AND THEN JUST TURNED OFF. THE BLUE TOOTH INTERMITTENTLY FAILS.

TRAVELING AT SPEEDS OVER 60 MILES AN HOUR AND HITTING SOME SORT OF BUMP IN THE ROAD THE FRONT TIRES BEGIN WOBBLING UNCONTROLLABLY UNTIL THE SPEED IS BROUGHT DOWN. THIS IS MY FOURTH WRANGLER AND THE OTHERS NEVER DID THIS.

DEATH WOBBLE WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, HIT A SMALL BUMP AT 65 MPH AND THE VEHICLE SHOOK UNTIL I SLOWED DOWN. CONTINUED ON AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. WILL TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER TOMORROW. 3000 ON THE JEEP.

AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OVER 55MPH, UPON HITTING A SLIGHT BUMP OR IMPERFECTION IN THE ROAD THE STEERING WOBBLES VIOLENTLY. THIS IS ONLY CORRECTED BY SLOWING DOWN. THIS CAN BE A PROBLEM ON A INTERSTATE HIGHWAY.

WHEN DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND VEHICLE HITS A BUMP OR BRIDGE LIP, VEHICLE SHAKES AND STEERING WHEEL SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. THIS OCCURRED ON NOVEMBER 22, 2018 AND NOW IT HAS CONTINUED WHEN I DRIVE ON THE INTERSTATE WITH POSTED SPEED OF 70.

'TAKATARECALL' STEERING WHEEL STUCK ON VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY TO LEFT SIDE CAUSING ME TO ALMOST GOING OFF SIDE OF ROAD HAD TO JERK STEERING WHEEL BACK ALMOST LOSING CONTROL, WAS ABLE TO KEEP CONTROL WITH BOTH HANDS ON WHEEL

DEATH WOBBLE HAPPENED TWICE AT SPEED OF 70-75 MPH

BACKUP CAMERA GUIDELINES HAVE DISAPPEARED AND THE SCREEN GOES BLACK AT TIMES

STEERING I LOOSE AND VEHICLE WANDERS CONSTANTLY. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS ALMOST RESULTING IN ACCIDENTS. I CURRENTLY HAVE 2200 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED SINCE DAY ONE. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE JEEP DEALER CHECK OUT BUT WANT TO DOCUMENT THIS PROBLEM IN CASE I HAVE AN ACCIDENT PRIOR TO THE DEALER VISIT.

DEATH WOBBLE . AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN HIT A BUMP THE FRONT END SHAKES VIOLENTLY YOU THEN HAVE TO SLOW DOWN TO 40 MPH TO MAKE IT STOP. THE VEHICLE IS BRAND NEW AND HAS ONLY 1,200 MILES ON IT. IT IS GOING TO THE SHOP FOR ROUND 2 OF REPAIRS WHICH I AM SURE WILL NOT REMEDY THE ISSUE. IT HAS THE JEEP DEATH WOBBLE AND WE DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT .

THE JEEP BEGINS TO SHAKE AND EVENTUALLY WOBBLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE ONSET IS QUICKLY AND DOES NOT TYPICALLY GO AWAY WITHOUT DRASTIC REDUCTION IN SPEED. IT HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES IN THE PAT WEEK. I HAVE A VIDEO SHOWING THE EVENT BUT AM UNABLE TO UPLOAD. IT STARTS WITH A SMALL SHAKING AND THEN INCREASES IN INTENSITY TO A ROCKING OF THE VEHICLE WITH STEERING STABILITY ISSUES.

WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE. GOING ABOUT 60 MPH STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND BEGAN TO SHAKE AGGRESSIVELY. HAD NO CONTROL OF VEHICLE. HAD TO APPLY BRAKES AND GET IT DOWN TO 40 MPH BEFORE STEERING WILL UNLOCK. VEHICLE NOW IN JEEP DEALERSHIP WITH NO RESOLUTION. IN ADDITION I'VE HAD SHOOTING PAIN DON BACK FROM AGGRESSIVE SHAKING.

WHILE DRIVING AT HWY SPEEDS AND HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD THE FRONT RIGHT OF THE JEEP START TO WOBBLE VIOLENTLY. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IT IS TO SLOW DOWN TO 35-40 MPR. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DO IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HWY. INITIALLY FELT LIKE A FLAT TIRE. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CAN NOT REPLICATE THE WOBBLE AND CHECKED "EVERYTHING" THIS HAPPENED AT HIGH SPEEDS, 5 PEOPLE IN THE CAR AND DOG IN THE BAG. I AM DISAPPOINTED THAT THERE IS NOT A FIX FOR THIS ESPECIALLY IN A NEW MODEL JL. I PURCHASED BRAND NEW IN JUNE AND HAVE MADE NO MODIFICATION TO THE JEEP.IF SOMEONE WAS TO PANIC DURING THIS EVENT IT COULD BE LIFE THREATENING.

WHILE TRAVELING AT SPEEDS ABOVE 25 MPH, THE JEEP IS VERY LOOSE STEERING AND REQUIRES CONSTANT ADJUSTMENT TO THE STEERING WHEEL TO DRIVE STRAIGHT. THIS IS MY 9TH JEEP WRANGLER AND I HAVE NEVER HAD ONE THAT EXHAUSTED ME SO MUCH TO DRIVE IT. IT IS TOTALLY STOCK WITH 4000 MILES ON IT. WISH I STILL HAD MY JK.

'DEATH WOBBLE' THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WHEN TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN I AM OVER 70MPH AND HIT A BUMP THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES VIOLENTLY UNTIL I SLOW DOWN. I ALMOST FEEL LIKE I AM GOING TO LOSE CONTROL AND HAVE HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY TO GET THIS TO CORRECT ITSELF. THIS NEEDS FIXED.

ANY DESCRIPTION OF THE JEEP DEATH WOBBLE I HAVE READ IS EXACTLY WHAT I AM EXPERIENCING. I EXPERIENCED MY FIRST INCIDENT WHILE DRIVING MY 2018 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED THAT I HAD PURCHASED TWO MONTHS EARLIER. AT HIGHWAY SPEED'S BETWEEN 70 AND 75 MILES AN HOUR IF THE VEHICLE HITS A BUMP OR A JOINT IN A BRIDGE WELL OFTEN BEGIN TO WOBBLE AND BECOME ALMOST VIOLENCE. IT WILL SUBSIDE PLAN DECREASING SPEED OR HOLDING THE SPEED FOR ABOUT A MILE OR SO. I BROUGHT IT IN TO THE JEEP SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY SAID THEY SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. I AM AT THE POINT NOW WHERE I CAN ALMOST MAKE IT HAPPEN ON COMMAND. MY NEXT STEP IS TO BRING THE MECHANIC IN FOR A TEST DRIVE WITH ME. FROM WHAT I'VE READ I EXPECT NOTHING TO BE DONE TO HELP ME OUT. I WILL ALSO NOTE THAT THERE ARE NO MODIFICATIONS WHATSOEVER TO MY CAR.

LAST WEEK, I DROVE OVER HIGHWAY EXPANSION JOINTS WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEED. MY STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND THE ENTIRE FRONT END BEGAN TO SHIMMY AND WOBBLE. I IMMEDIATELY MOVED FROM THE PASSING LANE, THROUGH THE CENTER LANE, TO THE FAR RIGHT LANE. THERE, AFTER REDUCING SPEED, THE SHAKING STOPPED. I EXPERIENCED THIS SAME PROBLEM THIS WEEK WHILE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATES AT HIGHWAY SPEED, 5 TIMES WITHIN THE SAME TRIP. THE SHAKING BEGAN AFTER HITTING A SEEMINGLY SMALL IMPERFECTION IN THE ROAD. THE FIRST TIME, THE WOBBLING AND SHAKING MUST HAVE BEEN VISIBLE FROM THE EXTERIOR AS THE CAR BEHIND ME DROPPED BACK AND THOSE TO THE RIGHT OF ME CLEARED THE WAY FOR ME TO MOVE OVER. THE OTHER FOUR TIMES WERE NOT AS SEVERE AND THE SHAKING STOPPED AFTER I REDUCED SPEED. I CALLED THE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND SPOKE WITH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT FROM THE ROAD TO SEE IF THEY HAD HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM AND TO SEE IF THE CAR WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. THE SERVICE REP CLAIMED TO HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS ISSUE AND ATTRIBUTED IT TO A TIRE BALANCE PROBLEM, ALTHOUGH I ASSURED HIM IT WAS NOT. WHEN I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION, I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND A PROBLEM CALLED "JEEP DEATH WOBBLE" THAT PERFECTLY DESCRIBES MY EXPERIENCES. VIDEOS POSTED ON YOUTUBE ALSO MATCHED WHAT HAD OCCURRED. I PLAN TO TAKE MY JEEP IN FOR SERVICE WHEN I RETURN HOME. DATE LISTED BELOW IS MOST RECENT INCIDENT AND THE DAY I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP.

DEATH WOBBLE DUE TO DEFECTIVE PART

14000 MILES. PURCHASED IN MARCH. EXPERIENCING DEATH WOBBLE AT SPEEDS OVER 67MPH AND DRIVING OVER A POT HOLE, BRIDGE CONNECTION OR SOMETHING IN THE ROAD. HAS ALMOST CAUSED 2 ACCIDENTS. DEALER CANNOT DIAGNOSE BUT THINKS IT COULD BE STEERING STABILIZER, CAMBER, STEERING BOX. NO PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE UNTIL 2019.

AFTER READING THE ARTICLE ON USA TODAY ABOUT THE "DEATH WOBBLE" I THOUGHT I SHOULD REPORT THAT I EXPERIENCE THE SAME THING EVERYDAY ON MY MORNING COMMUTE. I TAKE 131 SOUTH IN GRAND RAPIDS AND IT HAPPENS AT THE SAME LOCATION EACH MORNING,.

IF I HIT A BUMP ON THE HIGHWAY TRAVELING AT SPEEDS OVER 70MPH THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES VIOLENTLY UNTIL I HIT MY BRAKES AND SLOW DOWN UNDER THE MINIMUM SPEED LIMIT FOR IT TO STOP SHAKING.

'DEATH WOBBLE' EXPERIENCED AGAIN. TRAVELING OVER 70MPH ON THE PA TURNPIKE AND HIT A SMALL BUMP WHEN MY STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. I HAD TO PULL OFF THE SIDE OF THE RODE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE A STOCK 2018 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SAHARA. I HAD A STOCK 2015 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SAHARA PRIOR TO THIS AND NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS.

HAVE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 2 WEEKS AND LESS THAN 500 MILES. TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE AT 65 MPH, WHEN WE CAME TO A GRADUAL TURN IN THE ROAD. STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND WAS UNABLE TO TURN RIGHT. VEHICLE WENT ONTO THE RUMBLE STRIPS AND ALMOST OFF THE HIGHWAY WHEN SUDDENLY THE STEERING "RELEASED". THIS CAUSED THE WHEEL TO JERK TO THE RIGHT. FORTUNATELY DIDN'T GO OFF THE ROAD OR OVERCOMPENSATE TOO MUCH ONCE IT RELEASED. ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING. CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON HIGHWAYS. SPOKE THE DEALER AND THEY SAID MAY THE "ALIGNMENT NEEDED ADJUSTED". THIS ISN'T AN ALIGNMENT ISSUE. IT WAS LIGHT AN ELECTRONIC CONTROL THAT WAS PREVENTING THE WHEEL FROM TURNING.

MY VEHICLE IS STARTING TO EXPERIENCE DEATH WOBBLE. WHEN IT HITS A BUMP ON THE HIGHWAY THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES VIOLENTLY FOR A FEW SECONDS. THIS IS A NEW ISSUE THAT I HAVE NOT HAD BEFORE. THE VEHICLE HAS 2200 MILES.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON AFTEN, HAVE TO UNHOOK MY BATTERY TO TURN OFF

2018 JEEP WRANGER JL SPORT 2 DOOR HAS 1500 MILES, STOCK FROM THE FACTORY, NO MODIFICATIONS AND I EXPERIENCED THE "DEATH WOBBLE" ON THE HIGHWAY - AT ABOUT 70 MPH I WENT OVER A BUMP IN THE HIGHWAY AND THE JEEP STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY, LUCKILY NO ONE AROUND ME AND AS I SLOWED TO APPROX 40 MPH IT STOPPED. I PULLED OFF TO CHECK EVERYTHING. I HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS SO CLEARLY I WAS VERY SHOOK UP. I HAVE SINCE CALLED THE DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM AND THEY ARE GOING TO TAKE A LOOK NEXT WEEK. VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY!

WHEN TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AT 50-70 MPH AND HITTING A BUMP, THE FRONT OF THE JEEP BEGINS TO SHAKE OR WOBBLE VERY HARD BACK AND FORTH. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IT IS TO HIT THE BRAKES QUICKLY AND HARD, MAKING DRIVING VERY UNSAFE - ESPECIALLY INCREASING THE DANGER OF GETTING REAR ENDED. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 3 TIMES TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE TO NO AVAIL. ENGINE LIGHT ALSO GOES ON AND OFF REPEATEDLY.

WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND YOU HIT A BUMP THE JEEP WILL INTERMITTENTLY BEGIN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE AND THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IT IS TO SLOW DOWN ALMOST TO A STOP.

THE STEERING SEEMS TO CATCH IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS WHEN DRIVING AND SLIGHTING TURNING TO THE RIGHT, IT GETS VERY STIFF AS IF THE POWER STEERING HAS GONE OUT, THEN RELEASES IT HAPPENS EVERY MORNING WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE..

AT HIGHWAY SPEED, THE CAR AFTER HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD HAD EXCESSIVE WOBBLE OF THE STEERING. IT DID NOT RECEED UNTIL SLOWING TO APPROXIMATELY 30 MILES PER HOUR.

I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT AT A SPEED OF 65 MILES PER HOUR ON A BUSY, MAIN HIGHWAY. WITHOUT WARNING, THE JEEP WENT INTO A "DEATH WOBBLE" AND WAS UNABLE TO BE CONTROLLED. I WAS UNABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE AND I WAS FORCED TO COAST TO A STOP ALONG THE SHOULDER. ONLY UPON BRINGING THE CAR TO A COMPLETE STOP DID THE THE VIOLENT SHAKING STOP. I WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR PROPERLY AFTER THAT, AS THE STEERING WAS LOOSE AND NOT CORRECTLY CONTROLLED. I MADE IT TO A GAS STATION WHILE DRIVING SLOWLY AND WAS TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP FROM THERE.

ONCE MY 2018 JEEP WRANGLER HIT OVER 16.5K MILES, WHEN DRIVING OVER 60 MPH AND HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD, THE STEERING WHEEL/WHEELS SHAKE VIGOROUSLY AND THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IS TO BRING THE SPEED BELOW 60 MPH, WHICH IS VERY UNSAFE WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I AM ALSO NOW NOTICING THAT THE STEERING/SUSPENSION FEELS DIFFERENT WHEN TRAVELING ON SECONDARY ROADS WHEN HITTING BUMPS ON THE ROAD. THIS STARTED 2 WEEKS AGO WAS MINOR AND IS CONTINUING TO GET WORSE.

I LEASED MY WRANGLER OCTOBER 28 2018. WITHIN TWO WEEKS I GOT WHAT IS CALLED THE 'DEATH WOBBLE' THE STEERING SHAKES UNCONTROLLABLY AND THE FRONT TIRES SHAKE SIDE TO SIDE WHEN YOU HIT A BUMP GOING OVER 50MPH. TOOK VEHICLE IN TO DEALER. AFTER WAITING OVER TWO WEEKS STEERING DAMPER WAS REPLACED. TWO MONTHS LATER SAME ISSUE. TOOK BACK TO DEALER NEW STEERING DAMPER PUT ON ALONG WITH WHAT THEY SAID WAS 'OTHER ISSUES ' I NOW KNOW THEY ALSO REPLACED THE TRACK BAR. TWO WEEKS LATER SAME ISSUE. TOOK TO ANOTHER DEALER WHOM I HEARD DELT WITH THIS MORE. THEY AGAIN REPLACED THE TRACK BAR. TWO DAYS LATER SAME ISSUE. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE MANUFACTURER. THEY SAY IT DOESN'T FALL IN THE LEMON LAW. I HAVE NO ANSWERS AND AM FORCED TO DRIVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE UNDER 45MPH. I HAVE NO ANSWERS AND THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO.

WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (ABOUT 55MPH-70MPH) IF THE JEEP HITS A MINOR BUMP, IT WILL VIOLENTLY SHAKE. BOTH THE STEERING WHEEL, WHEELS AND THE ENTIRE CAR ARE AFFECTED. YOU CAN NOTICE THE VIOLENT SHAKING/VIBRATIONS FROM OUTSIDE THE CAR. THE ONLY WAY THE SHAKING STOPS IS BY SLOWING DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE I'VE HAD THE CAR, WHICH IS ONLY A FEW MONTHS OLD AND IS STOCK. NOTHING IS LIFTED OR MODIFIED.

I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, ABOUT 70 MPH AND WENT OVER BUMP ON A BRIDGE. THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED SHAKING FOR ABOUT 3 SECONDS AND STOPPED AS I LET OFF THE GAS. I WENT OVER THE NEXT BRIDGE AND IT DID THE SAME THING. THIS IS THE 1ST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME , THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 5300 MILES ON IT.
