general problems of the 2001 Jeep Cherokee

I have a 2001 Jeep Cherokee and began to notice the problem toward the end of 2012 or first of 2013. When I would reach a speed of around 55 mph, the front wheels/steering wheel would begin to vibrate, shake or whatever you want to call it. It is a violent vibration that is pretty scary and feels like you cannot control the vehicle. It subsides if you immediately slow way down. The problem has gotten progressively worse. It now would start around 45 miles an hour or so, depending on how smooth or bumpy the road is. The bumpier, the more easily in begins the wobble. When I recently researched it online, it is called the "death wobble". I have never put in "non-conforming" parts, nor have I used my vehicle off-road or abused it. I have maintained my vehicle and it has about 160,000 miles on it. I had just taken it in to see if the shaking can be repaired, and the person working on it, replaced almost every part associated with the front suspension etc. In what he thought had corrected the problem, it has only moderately reduced the symptoms. So far, about $800. 00 worth of repairs that have not corrected the problem. I don't think I want any of my tax dollars to bail out Chrysler corporation if they do not fix the problem at no cost to the consumer. I saw their forced "acknowledgement" of the problem and I also saw that they will not pick up the cost of trying to fix the defect. Very disappointed and will not purchase another Chrysler product.

Had problems w/ front end shaking violently when I hit a bump, changed lanes or put on the brakes at freeway speeds. Thought it was a brakes or alignment problem, but after having brakes replaced and the alignment checked, I resorted to going to the Jeep dealership. After dealer replicated the symptoms, informed me of a technical service bulletin from last year and then replaced the entire suspension system under warranty. (note: the car had 18,000 miles on it at the time. ) the symptoms are returning less than a year later. This should be covered under a recall.

While driving the vehicle 55 mph the vehicle had a heavy vibration. The dealer inspected the vehicle and replaced the drive shaft yet the vibration still occurred.

Front end of vehicle shakes violently at highway speeds, causing a loss of steering control. Driver must come to a nearly complete stop in order to gain control of the vehicle. It's been brought back to several dealers, undergoing over $1,000 in repairs, but nothing has solved this problem. Began at 18,000 miles and continuing now at 58,000 miles.

The consumer has a up lift suspension package causing the front end to bounce back and forth. And the vehicle vibrates please fill in additional information. Dealer is aware of the problem. Ts.

At high speeds steering wheelvibrates and loses steering control. Cause unknown. Dealer notified.

The axles make noise while traveling on the highway. Please provide additional information dealer is aware of the problem. Ts.

Jeep pulls to the left and right. It doesn't drive right and vibrates. Mechanic said it was not right. Check by mechanic at dealership. Nothing could be done. Jeep is hazardous on the road with the way it drives and pulls. Another mechanic said a belt was broke in the right tire.
