Description of the problem | While driving at speeds at or above 55 mph, when i strike a pot hole or expansion joint in the roadway, i experience the death wobble. The steering wheel and front end begin to violently shake, to the point where it is hard to keep a hold of the steering wheel. The only thing that seems to resolve it is stopping and starting again. This has happened multiple times and i've had it to the dealership for this specific problem but it continues to happen. The last it happened was 5/13/2020. I was driving on a state roadway and hit a pot hole and experienced the death wobble again. |
