Potential Consequences:

DRIVING ON THE 355 TOLLWAY DRIVING 76 MPH, I WENT OVER A BRIDGE THAT HAD A SLOPE (BUMP) AND THE JEEP STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY. THE STEERING WHEEL WAS UNCONTROLLABLE. BEING IN THE MIDDLE LANE I HAD MANY "NEAR MISSES" OF OTHER CARS POTENTIALLY HITTING ME. I LET OFF THE GAS PEDDLE AND HAD TO PULL OVER BEFORE THE SHAKING STOPPED. BEING THE FAMILY CAR, I AM NO LONGER DRIVING IN FEAR OF AN ACCIDENT MAY OCCUR. I CONTACTED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT BUT AM HESITANT TO DRIVE THE JEEP THERE.

*UPDATE* BEEN TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES AND GOING BACK FOR A 5TH FOR THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AND "WANDERING STEERING". THEY'VE TRIED TO FIX THE WOBBLE, BY REPLACING THE STABILIZER/DAMPER WITH AN AFTER-MARKET, WHICH THEY COMPLETED, BUT PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. SIDENOTE* I OPENED UP A CASE W/ FCA AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THIS SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN DONE BUT MAY HAVE BEEN DONE BECAUSE THE OEM NEW MODEL STABILIZER WAS ON BACK-ORDER. REPLACED THE AFTER-MARKET STABILIZER/DAMPER AND PUT ON ANOTHER OEM AND YET, THE ISSUE STILL EXISTS (DEATH-WOBBLE). "STEERING WANDERING" HAS NEVER BEEN FIXED. I'VE GOT ANOTHER APPT.
