Vibration might be the wheel alignment. Check for that.

I have an 07 Commander. Out of the blue it started vibrating at highway speeds and sometimes miles away from home. I would stop and then startup again and it would be fine. The only thing that I was doing different was I had started using the parking brake so I stopped using it. I havent had the problem since. I experimented a couple of times using the parking brake and learned that the parking brake was definitely the issue. Perhaps Jeep should take a look at the parking brake system.
