If you were wondering about the outcome of that class action lawsuit you can read it in the above link. Long story short (I’m not a lawyer by any means) FCA has fulfilled their obligations to attempt to correct it (DW) and therefor will not be held accountable. DW is something that can occur on any straight axle vehicle therefor is is a flaw that you must accept.
Sorry to hear this is your first new vehicle. I know how exciting it must be only to have this problem. This is my 3rd. Jeep and my family’s 7th. So we’re Jeep people but we never heard of this until now. It sounds as though it can be fixed if you spend the time to locate the weak link.I just posted on another thread. I have a 21 stock sport Gladiator and the DW began at 8500 miles. Dealership basically told me there’s nothing they can do unless they find a point of failure. I also heard about the class action lawsuit regarding the DW in Cali. I think it has more to do with the bandaids they put in place to effectively let the warranty run out than it is to deal with death wobble. It’s garbage that the recommendation is to fix it yourself because Jeep can’t seem to figure it out. A vehicle that has less than 10k miles and has issues should be fixed by the manufacture.
Just wanting you to know that I share your sentiment and frustration ( this is my first NEW vehicle and it has began to leave a bad taste in my mouth).
