“Hood raises up about 2 inches and the safety catch holds the hood down when a semi truck is coming from the opposite direction or on windy days. The causes a big distraction when it looks as if the hood is going to fly up on a regular basis. Dealership advised that there is not a recall on the hood latches.”
NHTSA complaint #10225344, filed 2008-04, 15 miles“2007 Jeep wrangler 2dr. 4x4..approx mileage 27,000 miles. While driving a relatively low speed (30 -45 MPH), the vehicle encounters a bump in the road, or an uneven spot, a violent shaking begins and is uncorrectable until the vehicle is brought to a near complete stop. The dealership calls this the death wobble . This has gone on for approximately 6 months time. The most recent occurrence was the worst, it happened at a higher speed (approx. 50 MPH) and resulted in a near collision/rollover. Same has been returned to the dealership and is pending.”
