Description of the problem | Death wobble when driving and hit a small bump in the road, especially at speeds over 40 mph. I've had shocks replaced, tires checked and rechecked, shocks on the body of the vehicle replaced, to no avail. Particularly bad if i'm at a slight turn and hit a bump at 60mph. Nearly lose control of the vehicle. The whole vehicle shakes. Mechanics can't find anything wrong, but the death wobble is still there. Has happened so frequently i brace when i hit small bumps or go over bridges with small ridges. Not one specific incident, it happens every single time i hit a small bump at speeds over 40 mph. |
