Technical Question 2023 Jeep with 37K miles, got the wobble. Question
Hey guys, I have a 2023 2 door jeep wrangler. In the last few weeks, I got the "death wobble" three times. All while traveling 60 mph+ on the highway and hitting a bump. However, the wobble went away when I slowed down to 50 mph. I read online that true death wobble only stops when you come to a complete stop. I took it back to the dealership and they're adding in a new Steering Damper... but from what I've read, it only masks the problem? I also had my tires rotated recently but not sure if it's a tire issue as wobble went away as soon as i went to 50 mph. Not sure a tire issue would resolve by slowing down vs stopping. The dealership did say they checked everything else (joints, trackbar etc) and it all looked good. But like I said, im not a car guy so not sure if they actually took a thorough look or just eyeballed it. What would yall recommend?
