I had my power steering bracket break into 3 pieces, causing me to go through 2 pulleys and 4 serpentine belts before figuring out the problem. I have also experienced the "death wobble" a few times at speeds between 40-50 mph. It is very disturbing and scary and forced me off the road. I have to slow down immediately to get it to stop.

Family ownership since new. Recently started experiencing the "death wobble." Jeep traveling on a high speed (above 60) road starts to shake uncontrollably and is difficult/impossible to steer or maneuver. Jeep feels like it is going to fall apart. Happens without warning. Have to stop or significantly slow down before shaking stops. This is the third time in the past six months.

Driving at nearly 45-50 mph, the entire front end began to shake violently until I slowed to a near stop. The steering wheel bounced back and forth more and more until I was going about 15-20 mph. I was not in the process of turning nor had I just completed a turn. There were no bumps to mention either.

I experienced a "death wobble" in my 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It was so bad that it broke the gears in the steering box and made me lose the steering control while driving. Had to have the steering box replaced 3 times because of the wobble occurring multiple times. Have replaced all recommended parts and everything looks and feels tight in regards to the steering and suspension. The problem is continuing to happen.

- Bellevue, ID, USA

Vehicle has excessive and violant vibrations at 65-70 mph, loud roaring noise. Two Chrysler 5 star dealership has serviced vehicle on numerous occasions including a factory zone rep analysis. Currently the vehicle has been serviced with a new gear shift differential, transfer case and drive shaft, 4 new tires and shocks with no improvements resulting in $3000 in service cost. No resolution.... vehicle is extremely dangerous with extreme violant shaking. Chrysler is contending that the vehicle has high mileage and is not under manufacture warranty and is not liable. I have researched other similar conditions with the same consumer complaints. Many were accident related.
