While driving, if the vehicle hits a small bump, the front end shakes violently back and forth until i am able to stop the vehicle. this problem is widespread and can be found on the internet as the "jeep death wobble". we've spent $900 to have this fixed and have been to 2 different garages to have it fixed and the mechanics can't find anything more that is wrong and claim it's a design flaw in the vehicle.

While going appx. 55-70mph, on several occasions, go over a bump in road (does not have to be a big bump) veh. starts shaking, steering wheel has been jerked out of my hands. have to come to a complete stop and does not matter where. veh. pulls extremely hard not wanting to go forward. many youtube videos have also been documented on this. maybe if i marked a traffic accident or death caused by this, jeep would do something. i have completed a fix that has been good now for several months. replaced ball joints, added to steering shocks to keep steering forward, replace both tie rods, front end alignment, new shocks (all 4). have paid out my part on keeping my jeep serviced. but, jeep still has not answered this complaint now for years. expand question: when did this happen. it has been an ongoing problem since i bought it new in 2007. jeep dealership could not find anything wrong.
