What owners report

  • When driving at 40 mph or faster the car will hit a bump and start shaking violently to the point where loss of control could occur. Could possibly be just the tires, but seems a lot of earlier jk wranglers suffer from this.

  • I've experienced the occurrence known as the "jeep death wobble" twice now since buying this jeep last year. Both happened while driving approx. 50mph on highway. *tr
