I am a newbie, 5 thJeep I've owned, but last was a 93 Cherokee. My 2019 Rubicon will start vibrating underneath, almost like a Jake break on a diesel, when I go over a bump or cattle guard at highway speeds. It goes away, sometimes like a quarter mile later, or it stopped immediately once when I took my foot off the gas. It has less than 2000 miles on it. Anyone else experience this?

So just to clarify, you aren’t talking about death wobble are you?

Can you isolate where the vibration is coming from? Transmission or front steering components?

Automatic or manual transmission? How hot does your front driveshaft feel compared to your rear? Transmission temp? I’ve got a kind of similar issue (maybe) on mine

I have an automatic transmission, I am not sure on the temps, but will check next time I drive it. It has happened to me when it was snowing out, so there hasn't been excessive outside heat.

It did it at 30 mph in town the other day. They came and picked it up on a flatbed and took it to the dealer today.[/QUOT
New updates, the dealership thought it was trying to shift into 4wd, so they changed a shift selector, but that didn't fix the issue. They are working on it again today, but still don't know what is causing it. I have a case manager now as well
