My jeep has the death wobble, has now for years. As advised ihave replaced tires and had an allignment, fixed it for a while, now its back, replaced tires and allignment also balanced and now replacing the steering damper.

There have been news pieces done about it and now chrysler has issued a technical bulletin blaming it on everyone else but their poor design. They should e held accountable.
