| 2002 | SUSPENSION:FRONT | MY 2002 JEEP LIBERTY 2X4 ALWAYS BOUNCES WHEN I DRIVE IT. IT BOUNCES AND THE STEERING WHEEL TURNS BY ITSELF WHEN I HIT A BUMP AT SLOW SPEED. REGULARLY, I HEAR A POPPING SOUND WHEN I TURN THE WHEEL TO MAKE A TURN. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED REGULARLY AND HAD THE RECALL ITEM COMPLETED (FRONT BALL JOINT) BUT STILL HAVE THE PROBLEMS. I HAVE PLACED ALL NEW TIRES ON THE VEHICLE BUT THE PROBLEMS STILL EXIST. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR ON THE FREEWAY AT HIGH SPEED BECAUSE I CAN FEEL THAT THE CAR DOES NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY. I CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY ANOTHER CAR AT THIS TIME BUT FEEL THAT THIS CAR IS NOT COMPLETELY SAFE TO DRIVE. PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM RATHER THAN AN INCIDENTAL PROBLEM.. WHICH STARTED ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO AND HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONCERN AND FOR LETTING ME BRING THIS TO YOUR ATTENTION. *TR |
