Hi.... i actually ended up traded my Gladiator in because i was sick of dealing with the issues... alot of people on the forums will tell you it is not cold related. here is my experiences.... i bought a 2018 wrangler and a 2021 gladiator, both in the summer.... fast forward to December, our...
Was at the dealer multiple times for the death wobble. They finally put an aftermarket Fox racing stabilizer on it and it did not do the death wobble after that. went through the same thing with a 2018 Wrangler JL. About a week and a half ago, we got some significant snow. putting it into and...
In my opinion, I would go to a different dealership and see what they say. In my specific scenario, I took a video of it happening and sent it to the serviceman, which prompted them to open a STAR case for it. Mt Gladiator only had 5k miles or so on it when it happened. Same thing with my...
Well..... until then... I had the fox stabilizer on my wrangler for 3 years with 0 issues. The way I see it, I go through vehicles every 2-3 years, so I probably won't have the thing if/when the fox stabilizer wears out regardless. BUT from what the serviceman said at the dealership, he made it...
Well everyone.... to recap everything..... I had the steering stabilizer changed twice (same stock part) and my steering gear box changed (changed from stock steel box to another stock steer box) and the problem still existed. they tried putting different tires on, re torquing everything, road...

So, the dealer ended up calling. Dropped of the Gladiator this morning and they are opening a star case for it. So I get to drive a base model Cherokee in the meantime LOL. Upon arriving, the serviceman told me that they just had another Gladiator come in with the same issue. I have a feeling...
So, dealer finally called and got me in to open the star case. I have a Cherokee to drive in the meantime LOL. Anyways, the serviceman I have been in contact with says he just had another Gladiator come in with the same problem. I have a feeling that dealerships are going to start seeing more...
I don't think a stabilizer will work lol. just stating that when they put one on my JL, it stopped it. ill go through everything when i get home from work if thats what i have to do. either that or trade it in for something else. and yes, im completely stock.
Like i said before, i understand that it was most likely masking a bigger issue. its just what stopped my issue for the rest of the time i owned the JL. so whoever bought it will probably eventually develop the wobble again. I guess i don't know the other issues it could have been, but i cant...
Ill mention your suggestions when i take it back AFTER XMAS, since this is the soonest the can get it back in despite all the issues. When i sit back and think of it, its sort of comical in a sense that a community will probably figure out the issue at hand before Jeep actually does. now that...
Yep, i get that. i can only speak from experience. the ONLY thing i know is that a fox racing stabilizer fixed my wobble in my 2018. I understand that it was probably a temporary fix masking a bigger issue.... My issue with this is that Jeep can't figure out what the actual bigger issue is. they...
I know that a plethora of vehicles can develop the dreaded death wobble. But, i honestly think with this new and current generation of jeeps, there is an issue somewhere with some suspension component(s). There is no way I just develop the same exact issue with a brand new 2018 JL and 2021 JT...
I get that, but i dont think the JKUs have had issues like the JLs and JTs. im not a jeep connoisseur so i have no idea if anything happened during their transition to the newer style. All I know is i have had 2 new style Jeeps (2018 JL and 2021 JT) and both of them have had the same exact...
I have another forum opened as i didnt know this one existed. I have the wobble in my gladiator, completely stock. so far, jeep has swapped out my stabilizer and steering gear box, torqued all suspension components and checked for wear on them, rebalanced/alignment all tires, and i STILL have...
I just dont understand how they have not gotten this sorted out yet... i read some other forums.... what i can tell you is that both my JL and JT began the death wobble at the start of winter, exactly the same way... started with a little lingering rumble in the steering wheel after hitting...
Hi all,
I have a 2021 Gladiator sport which started doing the death wobble. previously, i had a 2018 JL that had the exact same issue. I have the JL steering stabilizer changed 4 different times at 3 different dealerships before they put a fox racing stabilizer on, then no more death wobble...
