I GET THE DEATH SHAKE. THE FIRST TIME WAS IN 2015 AND I HAD IT FIXED. I HAVE IT AGAIN, STARTED IN JULY 2017. IT IS SO DANGEROUS. I LITERALLY HAVE TO STOP MY JEEP TO MAKE IT STOP. IT IS USUALLY WHEN I AM DRIVING BETWEEN 50 - 55 MPH. IT IS AWFUL.

I CALLED MCDONALD CHRYSLER IN CLARE MICHIGAN(624 W. 5TH ST., CLARE MICHIGAN 48617, 1-989-386-7779) I CALLED THEM ABOUT 6-7 MONTHS AGO WHEN I FIRST GOT MY FIRST RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD THE PART SO I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT WITH THEM AND WHEN I GOT THERE THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS WAS THE FIRST THAT THEY HAD HEAD OF THIS RECALL AND SAID THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO ORDER THE PART AND WOULD CALL ME WHEN THEY GOT THE PART IN. WELL ON 22 FEBRUARY 2016 I RECEIVED A 3RD NOTICE AND STILL HAVEN'T HEARD BACK FROM THEM. YOU WOULD THINK THAT WITH THIS BEING A SAFETY RECALL THAT THEY WOULD GET OFF THEIR BUTTS TO FIX THIS ISSUE. MY RECALL IS ABOUT THE CLUTCH INTERLOCK SWITCH(R13/NHTSA15V-22). I DO PLAN TO TAKE MY VEHICLE TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP.

VERY RANDOMLY, THE VEHICLE STARTS TO SHIMMY VIOLENTLY. HAVE SEEN THIS COMPLAINT ON SEVERAL WEBSITES. THANKFULLY WE HAVE BEN ABLE TO SLOW DOWN AND PULL OFF THE ROAD. HAVE BEEN TOLD THERE IS NO CLEAR CUT RESOLVE TO THIS ISSUE WITHOUT SPENDING A LOT OF MONEY BECAUSE IT COULD BE VARIOUS THINGS. WANT TO GET RID OF THIS VEHICLE BEFORE SOMETHING TRAGIC HAPPENS, BUT AM AFRAID BECAUSE OF THIS, WILL NOT GET WHAT VEHICLE IS WORTH AND SOMEONE ELSE MIGHT DIE NOT KNOWING THE ISSUE. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, THE NAME FOR THIS CONDITION IS A "DEATH RATTLE"

MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT IT. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR PART REPLACEMENT REPAIR OVER 7 TIMES, AND IT HAS ONLY 24,000 K. WON'T DETAIL EACH MECHANICAL ISSUE, BUT I HAVE BEEN VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS VEHICLE, AND GOT RID OF IT LAST WEEK.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON (11,000 MILES) ON THE FREEWAY, WHEN IT TOTALLY LOST POWER. IT LITERALLY SHUT DOWN. I WAS ABLE COAST TO THE CENTER MEDIUM. (THIS HAD HAPPENED JUST 4 DAYS BEFORE ALSO) I WAS ALMOST IN A CRASH AS I TRIED TO COAST TO A SAFE PLACE. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR UP, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND I BOUGHT THE JEEP TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP NEAR BY. THEY PUT THE CAR ON THE DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE, AND ON THE RACK TO CHECK IT, AND TOLD ME EVERYTHING CAME OUT FINE, AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. NEEDLESS TO SAY IT IS A VERY VERY DANGEROUS CAR TO DRIVE. IT IS LESS THAN ONE YEAR OLD AND UNDER WARRANTY.
