Jeep Wrangler speed wobble issue with front wheels shaking on Jeep Wrangler

Some Jeep Wrangler owners report experiencing severe shaking of the front end, commonly referred to as "death wobble," which causes the steering wheel to shake violently side to side at high speeds. This issue is often triggered by hitting a bump or pothole and can be caused by factors such as unbalanced wheels, misalignment, tire damage, bent rims, bad wheel bearings, or loose lug nuts. Unlike standard vibrations, the death wobble typically occurs at speeds above 45 mph and requires immediate attention to prevent further damage. Owners are advised to check components like ball joints to address the root causes of the wobble. Prompt diagnosis and repairs are essential to ensure safe driving conditions and resolve the shaking issue effectively.
