problem #2

Nov 152004

Cherokee 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 21,500 miles
Had problems w/ front end shaking violently when I hit a bump, changed lanes or put on the brakes at freeway speeds. Thought it was a brakes or alignment problem, but after having brakes replaced and the alignment checked, I resorted to going to the Jeep dealership. After dealer replicated the symptoms, informed me of a technical service bulletin from last year and then replaced the entire suspension system under warranty. (note: The car had 18,000 miles on it at the time.) the symptoms are returning less than a year later. This should be covered under a recall.
