Latest up date on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee and the problems with swaying (death wobble or whatever) while towing and it hits a rough spot in the road. We did not see this until after towing for probably about 6K or so. After that it has happened 6 to 8 times. We have taken it twice (checked alignments, etc.) to the dealer which basically said they did not think these minimal adjustments would solve the problem.
We finally got a case worker discussing the issues with us. After several discussions and sending a couple of bits of written explanation, I think she finally understands what is happening! First she told me we could not flat tow it. Then that we need to go to the RV dealer and make sure we were attaching everything correctly. After an explanation that we have towed it several thousand miles with no issues, etc. and we are still attaching it the same way and when checking all the Tow Master equipment it has been doing what it should.
So at this point we are waiting to see what is going to happen next. If anyone else is experiencing this problem please let me know. There are at least 3 or 4 more that I know of have experienced this safety problem. Also, when you see someone else towing a 2014 or 2015 Jeep Cherokee, check with them to see if they are experiencing these issues. If so, get their contact information and have them comment on this site. Thanks
