I would agree for the most part. The dealer is probably the last place that will solve your death wobble. They MAY throw on a new stabilizer which possibly will mask the issue for a short while. If you're lucky, they'll replace the tire rod ends (I've had that covered under warranty on a pervious vehicle) and track bar. Unfortunately the already under sized under built components won't prevent it from coming back later.
Thanks for the heads up. I'll let them offer suggestions and if not under warranty I'll start replacing parts myself with higher quality.

Ha I just saw I typed tire rod instead of tie rod. Oops

I'm curious how many people with death wobble do a 5 tire rotation instead of 4. I've always done 5 and I have to admit the Jeep felt a little more prone to wobble after the last rotation...

I've been doing 5 tire rotations for years. Only time that would be an issue is if one of the tires was out of balance. Discount rebalances each rotation for me.
