NOW THAT IT'S EARLY WINTER AND HIGHWAYS ARE BECOMING ROUGH I'M EXPERIENCING WHAT IS REFERRED TO AS THE 'DEATH WOBBLE' ON MY NEW JL WRANGLER WITH 10,000 MILES AND NO ALTERATIONS. I TOOK A TRIP AND EXPERIENCED 4 SEPARATE EXTREME STEERING WOBBLES AT HIGHWAY SPEED WHERE I HAD TO SLOW DOWN BELOW 55 MPH TO GET IT TO STOP. ONE TIME I WAS PASSING A SEMI WITH 2 VEHICLES BEHIND ME THAT WERE NOT TO IMPRESSED WITH MY SLOWING DOWN IN THE PASSING LANE WHERE THEY ALMOST HIT ME FROM BEHIND. THE NEXT DAY I EXPERIENCED ANOTHER GETTING ON THE BYPASS IN TOWN ON THE ON RAMP FROM HITTING A CHUCK HOLE. I HAVE TO LIMIT MY SPEED TO UNDER 62 MPH TO REDUCE THE ISSUE. I'M PAYING WAY TOO MUCH FOR THIS VEHICLE TO HAVE THIS SCARY OF AN ISSUE. THE WOBBLE ISN'T AS SCARY AS SLOWING DOWN IN TRAFFIC RANDOMLY AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THIS IS A MAJOR FLAW.

I'M PAYING WAY TOO MUCH FOR THIS VEHICLE TO HAVE THIS SCARY OF AN ISSUE. THE WOBBLE ISN'T AS SCARY AS SLOWING DOWN IN TRAFFIC RANDOMLY AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THIS IS A MAJOR FLAW.
Additional Notes:
NOW THAT IT'S EARLY WINTER AND HIGHWAYS ARE BECOMING ROUGH I'M EXPERIENCING WHAT IS REFERRED TO AS THE 'DEATH WOBBLE' ON MY NEW JL WRANGLER WITH 10,000 MILES AND NO ALTERATIONS. I TOOK A TRIP AND EXPERIENCED 4 SEPARATE EXTREME STEERING WOBBLES AT HIGHWAY SPEED WHERE I HAD TO SLOW DOWN BELOW 55 MPH TO GET IT TO STOP. ONE TIME I WAS PASSING A SEMI WITH 2 VEHICLES BEHIND ME THAT WERE NOT TO IMPRESSED WITH MY SLOWING DOWN IN THE PASSING LANE WHERE THEY ALMOST HIT ME FROM BEHIND. THE NEXT DAY I EXPERIENCED ANOTHER GETTING ON THE BYPASS IN TOWN ON THE ON RAMP FROM HITTING A CHUCK HOLE. I HAVE TO LIMIT MY SPEED TO UNDER 62 MPH TO REDUCE THE ISSUE. I'M PAYING WAY TOO MUCH FOR THIS VEHICLE TO HAVE THIS SCARY OF AN ISSUE. THE WOBBLE ISN'T AS SCARY AS SLOWING DOWN IN TRAFFIC RANDOMLY AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THIS IS A MAJOR FLAW.

EXPERIENCED DEATH WOBBLE TODAY. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 70-75 MPH AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND STARTED VIOLENTLY VIBRATING. I FELT THE VIBRATION FROM UNDER THE SEATS AS WELL. THE ONLY TIME IT STOPPED WAS WHEN I SLOWED DOWN TO ABOUT 40 MPH. I COULDN'T MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AT ALL.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
AT SPEEDS AROUND 65 MPH THE FRONT STEERING STARTS SHAKING UNCONTROLLABLY AFTER HITTING A BUMP OR DRIVING OVER A BRIDGE WITH AN EXPANSION JOINT. I HAVE TO SLOW DOWN AND PULL OVER QUICKLY. EXTREMELY UNSAFE. THE DEALERSHIP AT FIRST WAS "SURPRISED" TO HEAR OF THE PROBLEM BUT FINALLY SAID IT WAS A KNOWN ISSUE. THEY REPLACED THE STABILIZER ROD. IT JUST HAPPENED AGAIN 1 WEEK AFTER THE FIX. ~6,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE KNOWN "DEATH WOBBLE" I AM NOW FINDING DESCRIBED BY A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE. *DT CONSUMER STATED DEALERSHIP FIXED THE PROBLEM ON THE SECOND TRY.*JB

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
EXTREMELY LOOSE STEERING WHICH MAKES IT NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTROL. AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, IT'S ABSOLUTELY DANGEROUS. MY WIFE IS SO SCARED SHE WON'T EVEN DRIVE IT. THERE IS CONSTANT CORRECTING AND IF THE ROAD ISN'T PERFECTLY FLAT, YOU'LL HAVE TO HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL AT THE 10:00 OR 2:00 TO KEEP THE VEHICLE STRAIGHT. IMAGINE DOING THIS ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70MPH. I'M A 10YR PLUS WRANGLER OWNER AND I LOVE THEM, BUT I'M GETTING RID OF THIS THING IF JEEP DOESN'T ADDRESS IT.

MY BRAND NEW 2018 WRANGLER JL HAS THE "DEATH WOBBLE": WHEN TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND I HIT A SHARP BUMP, THE FRONT END SHAKES UNCONTROLLABLY. I NEED TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS, GET INTO THE BREAKDOWN LANE AND GO DOWN TO CLOSE TO ZERO MPH BEFORE THE SHAKING STOPS, THEN I NEED TO RE-MERGE INTO TRAFFIC. VERY SCARY (I USUALLY HAVE FAMILY IN CAR WITH ME) AND VERY DANGEROUS. IT'S IN THE SHOP NOW. PARTS ARE ON BACKORDER AND THEY WON'T RELEASE IT TO ME UNTIL ITS FIXED--I PRESUME B/C ITS TOO DANGEROUS. I EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE 7 TIMES BETWEEN WHEN I DROVE IT OFF THE LOT AND WAS ABLE TO SECURE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER. *DT*JB
