Typical suspension symptoms owners report

Owners describe a violent side-to-side shaking known as the "death wobble" starting around 50 mph, occurring multiple times a day and sometimes pulling the vehicle into another lane.
Some report the death wobble persisting after dealers replaced suspension components and adjusted toe-in, with the problem returning after a temporary fix.
Several owners report the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) warning light staying on even when tire pressure is correct, with dealers unable to resolve it through resets.
A few owners report being told their VIN was not covered by the TPMS recall (14V632000) even though they experienced the same warning-light issue described in the recall.
One owner reports a steering box sheared during a low-speed turn, causing the vehicle to drift right and collide with a barrier, resulting in front suspension and wheel damage.
One owner reports a front wheel locking up at highway speed, causing loss of control and a rollover, though airbags did not deploy.

Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chrysler Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan vehicles manufactured March 20, 2014, to April 22, 2014, and 2014 Jeep Wrangler vehicles manufactured March 21, 2014, to April 22, 2014. Due to a software error, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) may fail to learn the locations of the individual sensors while the vehicle is being driven. As a result, the low tire pressure warning light will illuminate, despite the the tire pressures being within specification. Should one of the tires lose air pressure, the driver would not be notified of the change in air pressure. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."
Risk: If the TPMS light illuminates because the sensors cannot be located, it could mask an actual low tire pressure condition, possibly resulting in tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Chrysler has notified owners, and dealers will reprogram the TPMS module, free of charge. The recall began on October 23, 2014. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P63.
