Follow up on incident #10225339 wobble in the front end was bad control rod. Dealer ordered part to fix it on april 21st and I had an accident on april 22. Minor damage to my jeep. Reported to chrysler and the refused to repair damage to my jeep which was caused by a faulty part. "inspector found no problems with the subject vehicle's steering/suspension system." the jeep dealership repaired the problem 4 days prior to the investigation at my house.

April 2008 Crash

The jeep death wobble has been happening to my vehicle since october 2011. I purchased the vehicle in october 2010. It happened once in 2011, I took it into the shop to see what was wrong and they said nothing was wrong with it. In the past two months it has started up again. I live in a remote area in alaska where the nearest city is 100 miles, only reached by highway. Each trip I would hit a bump and almost hit the guard rail at 65 MPH.
