Description of the problem	Since purchasing this vehicle in early july 2018 and having driven 550 miles i can say this vehicle has an excessive steering dead zone which leads to major overcorrecting and constant steering input to keep within a straight lane. This problem is amplified when traveling at highway speeds (60+ mph). Especially when there are bumps, cracked/uneven pavement, turning and wind and this creates an extremely dangerous driving situation which could result in serious injury to myself or others. This vehicle has a dangerous "bobble" or sway and driving at faster posted speeds, especially on more narrow roads is quite dangerous. The amount of force to correct to stay in center lane is unlike any vehicle in my almost 40 years of driving i have also owned 3 other jeep wranglers so i know how they drive. Others have mentioned this could be either a steering gearbox or computer flash issue. I did not pay over $40,000 for an unsafe to drive vehicle. Thank you for your assistance and help with this serious safety issue!
