ITS DOES IT ROUGHLY 8 OUT OF 10 TIMES AT 50MPH. IT STARTED AFTER HAVING THE JEEP FOR ABOUT 4 MONTHS AND MY DEALERSHIP TRIED ONCE TO FIX THE PROBLEM AFTER THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS THE FRONT STABILIZER. IT CONTINUED AFTER THEY REPLACED THAT AND FROM THAT STANDPOINT TOLD ME IT WAS THE TIRES AND THEY WOULDN'T COVER NEW TIRES AFTER ONCE TELLING ME THEY HAD FIXED THE ISSUE.
