Description of the problem | While flat towing our jeep latitude behind our motor home at 45mph the jeep began to wobble violently. We bought the jeep brand new in 2015. We were never notified we needed to install a special wire harness. The jeep dealer installed our towing package so they new it was going to be towed. We have an appointment this tuesday to try and remedy this death wobble at our own expense. We are lucky no one was hurt. From doing research on social media i was directed to bulletin kl-08-022-16. We never received any notification on this bulletin. Now our warranty has run out. |
