My Jeep has fallen victim to the dreaded death wobble. I have scoured the internet and found out that I am in good company and can't believe this hasn't warranted a recall from Jeep. My problem only rears its ugly head between 35 and 45 miles an hour from the slightest bump in the road. One bump and my Jeep is thrust into the "death wobble" and will not stop until I have slowed to under 20 miles per hour.
I have checked the track bar and everything seems intact and tight.
I have replaced the steering stabilizer.
And the wobble continues on....
Suggestion? I am thinking new tires (mine are worn)? Replacing tie rods/ball joints and having an alignment done? Don't know!

Really not quite sure when it actually started. But when I moved last year and had to drive it a long distance, that was when it was real noticable. And it always seem to do it around 50-70 mph. And Lord forbid when it rains. I really have to go slow. I had to go to work this morning, it was raining. And when I got off it was still raining and several cars almost it me because I had to drive around 40 and under to get home. It is real frustrating. It will cost me way to much money to fix and I can't afford another car. Plus it over heats as well. I like the car but it has a lot of problems.
Is there anyway the company can fix it before someone dies or has a serious accident? i seen a lot of people has a lot of problems out of the jeep. Why is that? Do the right thing and fix the problems we are having out of the vehicle that suppose to be a good running vehicle. As soon as possible would be great. or get them into a better one.
