This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
my wife and I were driving on a freeway each time this happened. After driving over a bump in the road, the front end vibrated violently to the point we had to slow down drastically and pull over. It controlled okay after slowing down to a very slow speed. This has happened approximately 5 times. We are scared to drive this vehicle. It causes the steering wheel to vibrate. We called the dealership today (Sat.) noone called back but we will call them Mon. This vehicle is too dangerous to drive.It has between 27 and 28 thousand miles. It has never been off road.We bought it new off the lot and will pursue this with the dealer. We wanted to report it before someone is in an accident. It is available for inspection.
While driving at highway speed, approximately 60 mph, went over a rough surface on the road and the Gladiator starter shaking as if I had had a blow-out. Once I slowed down it stabilized. However, it is a safety issue as it has already happened twice in a high traffic area. Upon researching on the internet, I've come to learn that it is a very common problem called "death wobble" that happens on Jeep off-road vehicles, which makes it all the more critical that NHTSA require Chrysler-Fiat to come up with a solution. Thank you.
