While traveling at approximately 70mph on the interstate after traveling over a small bump the steering wheel shook violently for 3 to 4 seconds until I slowed down the vehicle to approximately 50mph. A mile or so down the road the vehicle did the same thing at about the same speed

The contact owns a 2020 Jeep Gladiator. The contact stated that while driving 45 mph, the vehicle would go side to side, which caused the vehicle to be difficult to maintain straight. The failure occurred on several occasions. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to two local dealers (fox Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram located at 346 grant avenue rd, auburn, NY 13021 and the second dealer unknown) where it was diagnosed that the vehicle was performing as designed. The vehicle had not been repaired as of yet. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and filed a case. The failure mileage was approximately 130.

Gladiator

  • 1,400 miles
A month after purchasing my 2020 Jeep Gladiator overland I noticed how bouncy it felt on the road and when turning right I felt a grinding sound. The Jeep has spent all its time commuting to and from work on the highway. I took off the right front tire and I noticed that the shock bracket that is welded to the axle was completely broken off and making contact with my tire. Upon further inspection I noticed it was only a little spot weld that held that whole thing together. The broken shock mount was dangling and tearing the inside of my tire. I had it towed to the dealership and the explanation I received from the service department was that the robot missed a lot of welds on the front axle. It has now been a month now and my Jeep is still sitting and awaiting parts. Not much support from Jeep, just making payments on a car I can't drive.

Death wobble. When driving at speeds of 65+ mph when the weather is below 38F, if my Jeep hits a significant bump in the road the steering wheel begins to violently shake as does the rest of the vehicle. It stops after I reduce my speed to below 55mph.

The steering on my vehicle drifts within the lane and is very difficult to operate. The dealer said it is a combination of electric and mechanical steering which is sensitive. Dealer said repair for this issue at this time. Waiting for a software update.

My 2020 Jeep Gladiator wanders off the road I have to keep trying to stay in lane. When I came to the red light stop the other driver asked me if I was ok basically thinking I was drunk driving. Took it to the dealer service and they said its normal with Jeep. I know something is terribly wrong with this car so I searched Jeep Gladiator forum and others are also complaining about the same issue. Some have even stated they almost got in a car crash. Plz do something about this
