| There are no crash test ratings for the rear occupants in jeep wranglers. passengers are extremely vulnerable in the back seat since there is no protection except the roll bar but if they are rear-ended, the other car could simply hit the back seat directly. there is no neck protection as the seat is too short. when children ride back there, they are basically unprotected. this situation needs to be advertised so people don't assume it is safe to have passengers, especially children in the back of jeep wranglers. the back seat is only designed for cargo, not people! that's why they don't have data on rear occupant crash test ratings, because they would fail. *tr | |||

| Have a 2006 jeep wrangler with 24,000 miles which is experiencing front wheel shaking at about 40-45 mph and when braking. alignment, tires, etc. are good with no aftermarket modifications done to suspension. this appears to be a very common problem with wranglers and is even called and known as a death wobble. no crashes, but dealer will charge to investigate and fix. as mentioned, this appears to be a very common problem with wranglers, therefore, isn't it a manufacturing flaw that jeep needs to take responsibility for? | |||
