“Takata recall....while driving about 68 MPH on an interstate overpass today, my Jeep went into the dreaded death wobble . It was horrifying...I lost control of the vehicle and thought I would fall over the overpass. There was no warning, no bumps or pot holes. This is the scariest thing I've ever experienced on the road. It felt like 4 blow-outs simultaneously. I cannot believe there is no recall on such a dangerous issue.”
NHTSA complaint #10935296, filed 2016-12, 170 miles“At approximately 50mph if I hit a minor bump in the road my Jeep begins to shake violently and control is lost to the vehicle to the point that you must come to a complete stop before regaining control. This is called death wobble by online communities and service repairmen. The incident almost caused a collision as I was unable to keep the car in my lane and ran another car into a ditch. Luckily no one was hurt or property damaged.”
NHTSA complaint #10676301, filed 2015-01, 72,000 miles“Several times while driving the vehicle will violently shake. Sporadic at first but now more often. Shakes so hard that I'm forced to immediately brake. Several times while on the freeway. Tire replaced -alignment- several mechanics I tried could not identify the problem. When this problem occurs, it is very frightening. (google death wobble).”
NHTSA complaint #10331525, filed 2010-05, 30,000 miles“I experienced death wobble twice yesterday. The first happened in a curve with oncoming traffic. There was no obstruction in the road. The second was shortly after on a straight stretch. Again, no obstruction in the road. This was so severe my passenger had to help steady the wheel to keep me from crashing into oncoming traffic. There are no after market parts and no lift installed on the Jeep.”
NHTSA complaint #10477985, filed 2012-09, 62,000 miles“Whenever my 2007 Jeep his a bump at speeds over 45mph, it begins the death wobble . It shakes as if ready to fall apart. It occurs mostly on the highway, where I need to hold on tight and slow as quickly as possible to a near stop. This is extremely dangerous! I will not let my three teenagers drive the car. Apparently this is happening to all 2007 wranglers. This needs to be recalled!”
