Death wobble when I hit expansion joints on a over pass, bumps, pat holes etc..I bought my Jeep a week ago and only 500 miles on no modification all stuck from factory

At highway speed the vehicle develops a pronounced shimmy which lasts for several seconds when encountering a bump in the road. Identical to what was commonly called the "death wobble" on my 97 Wrangler.

At speeds over 45mph, that if you hit a bump, expansion joint, anything that would cause the suspension to load and unload, it goes into an immediate 'death wobble '. you cannot control steering and direction at this point. It vibrates and shakes so bad the soft top latches can become undone. Has been sitting in a dealership for 2 weeks with no answers on why. Has 10,000 miles on it but started at around 9000 miles. Nothing aftermarket on it at all.

The front wheels of the vehicle often shake violently at highway speeds when the vehicle hits a small bump in the road. Often the triggering event could also be uneven or patched sections of freeway. The front end shaking is so violent, control of the vehicle is difficult. The vehicle must be slowed immediately below 50mph to stop the shaking. This will happen at least once, every time I drive on a freeway.

Experiencing the death wobble while driving at high speeds and every bump or transition from highway to the overpass I get the wobble if I let off the gas it evens back out. I've also been experiencing some play in my steering wheel since I picked it up from the repair. I took it in for repair 12/12/18 (invoice 557959) and they replaced the steering damper. Had it back less than a month and the death wobble was back. Dropped it off 2 days ago just got a call and the steering damper is bad again and both tie rods are bad. It's less than a year old. I called back to have them check the track bar weld just in case since some have a recall on them.

Excessive / severe front wheel shake when hitting bumps, pot holes, etc. Front wheels, along with the steering wheel will shake severely when hitting bumps at highway speeds. Vehicle control is greatly impacted. Front wheels and steering wheel will not stop shaking until vehicle is nearly brought to a complete stop. Ability to keep control of the vehicle and stay within your lane requires extreme/extended braking at highway speeds. Vehicle has been service by an authorized Jeep service department. Jeep recommended part(s) were replaced but the problem still exists.

Purchased the brand new 2018 Jeep Wrangler sahara with 40 miles on November 30, 2018. Currently, this vehicle has 1,975 miles. In late December 2018 hit a bump on a highway driving the posted speed of 70mph and the vehicle vibrated a bit and had to slow down to handle the vehicle. Each week after driving the vehicle on daily commute in city conditions at the posted speed of 25-30mph, after hitting a bump in the pavement the vehicle does not handle well, as if I would lose control. On January 27, 2019 driving on a ramp at the speed of 45mph upon entering the interstate the vehicle hit a bump in the pavement, the vehicle begins an uncontrollable vibration and was shaking the steering wheel, I had to pull over. After researching this issue online with the same issue, I feel unsafe driving my only vehicle. For a vehicle valued over $45,000, I need this issue to be investigated before someone is seriously injured. I do not feel safe driving on the interstate at the posted speed. The vehicle feels unstable while driving over any bump in the pavement at 20mph the vehicle wobbles and sways.

While driving on the interstate highway at approximately 70 mph when going over pot holes or bumps like ones at bridge crossings the steering loses control and vibrates and shakes. The driver has no control of the steering you must slow down to approximately 45 mph to regain control of the vehicle. One incident on the highway happened when we were switching lanes on the interstate at approximately 70 mph the road condition was smooth and as we merged into the left lane the steering vibrated and shook and temporally did not have control of the vehicle in till we slowed down to approximately 45 mph. The dealership that I purchased the vehicle from has after several attempts to repair the vehicle claimed they fixed it. This is not the case it is still a problem

I am getting the death wobble in my 2018 Wrangler jlu, when on the highway. I've had the steering stabilizer replaced by my dealership with a new Jeep part. The problem is not fixed. There is still a lot of slop in the steering, and the death wobble is still happening at highway speeds. My vehicle has 4000 miles on it.

- Bryan, OH, USA

My Jeep Wrangler jl shakes violently at highway speed when a small pothole is struck or the road is uneven. The steering wheel vibrates and it seems as though a crash is imminent. Slowing down didnt seem to stop it-smooth road did. But on one occassion, the shaking lasted more than a mile. It seems to be getting worse. Death wobble seems to be what fits when researching on the internet. This vehicle is new and was purchased at the end of October 2018.

- Circleville, OH, USA

When driving at 60 mph on highway, and crossing over a bridge, the front of the Jeep, and steering wheel started shaking very badly. It seemed like the front end was going to fall apart. I had to slow down to about 35 mph for it to stop. The roads were clear, but it was below freezing out.

- Painesville, OH, USA

Jeep steering wheel and front end begin shaking violently when a small bump is struck at higher speeds. This forces the driver to slow to unsafe speeds on the freeway potentially creating accidents.. Jeep currently will not correct the problem, but only allows the dealership to replace the steering damper, which fails within the same week.

- Reynoldsburg, OH, USA

Experiencing 'death wobble' at high speeds when hitting bump in road. Jeep shakes violently. One time I had to come to a complete stop. Seems as if something is loose with the steering or suspension isn't up to par.

Driving on the 355 tollway driving 76 mph, I went over a bridge that had a slope (bump) and the Jeep started shaking violently. The steering wheel was uncontrollable. Being in the middle lane I had many "near misses" of other cars potentially hitting me. I let off the gas peddle and had to pull over before the shaking stopped. Being the family car, I am no longer driving in fear of an accident may occur. I contacted the service department but am hesitant to drive the Jeep there.
