Hello everyone,
Lots of great info here! This site has helped me so many times when dealing with jeep problems.
Anyway, I took the commander in to jeep two weeks ago for some repairs. I ended up with four new brake rotors and pads, a new front sway bar, a fuel system cleaning, and 4 new tires. When i got the jeep back, everything ran really nicely, but...there was an odd vibration at speeds over 50mph. I took the car back and the dealer re-aligned and rebalanced the tires for me. The vibration went away this time, until i got up around 70 mph. I spent almost 5 hours there on Friday trying to get the issue resolved but nothing is fixing it. The vibration isn't huge but i can feel it in the steering wheel a little as i get past 70mph, and i can see the backs of my seats (all seats) vibrating a little when they are reclined (for the backs).
At this point, i have no idea what to do. The dealer suggested I'm just to sensitive to the driving feel but i had practically bald tires before and an out of whack alignment and never felt any kind of vibration. Any suggestions?
