That sounds like the **Front-axle 'death wobble'** issue — it's a known defect on Jeep Wrangler/Gladiator from 2018–2024.

Violent steering-wheel oscillation triggered by road imperfections at highway speeds, caused by track-bar/damper geometry. NHTSA opened an investigation; class action filed in 2019.
