2023 Jeep Wrangler - SUSPENSION and STEERING Failure Complaint (#b0b128)

2023 Jeep Wrangler

  • Date of Incident: Nov-25, 2023
  • Date complaint filed: Mar-27, 2024
  • Failed components: SUSPENSION and STEERING

Driving on interstate @ 65 mph, in very heavy traffic, experienced death wobble after going over a road seam bump, making it hard to control the vehicle. Slowed down to 50 and it stopped. I was terrified i was going to crash. It happened several more times during the same trip, whenever over 55 mph. Brought to dealer on 11/27/2023. Dealer says stellantis is aware of the issue -- and has been sued for it in the past -- but it's been 4 months and stellantis has not yet provided the replacement part. This is a brand new vehicle with about 4,000 miles on it, and the death wobble continues to occur whenever over 55 mph. Infuriating that stellantis is aware of this issue yet is still installing malfunctioning parts.
