Typical suspension symptoms owners report
- Front end wobbles or shakes violently side to side at highway speeds, often triggered by a pothole or bump.
- Steering wheel vibrates and the whole front end bounces until the driver slows to near a stop, sometimes called a death wobble.
- Tie rod ends and ball joints wear out and separate, in one case causing a total loss of steering while backing up.
- Front tire tread peeled away during highway driving, causing a blowout that damaged the fender, bumper, and headlamp.
- Valve stems are too short or hidden by the chrome dual-rear-wheel package, making it hard to check tire pressure.
- Steering stabilizer, tie rod, and ball joints were replaced by a dealer, but the shaking issue recurred afterward.
