Description of the problem	While driving on the highway with my wife at 60mph the steering got loose to the point where the car was losing control i needed to pull off the highway. The 2018 wrangler jk has a new steering system design that creates a dangerously loose and oversteer condition that will increase rollovers at high speeds we would like to formally document the steering on the jl is flawed, dangerous, and designed at a level of looseness where the drivers control of the vehicle is dramatically impaired. This vehicle should be recalled and or the electronic software package should be redesigned. With this email i am notifying fca that they have a material safety hazard on this product. The excessive play in steering risks oversteer at low speeds and increased rollover % probability at 55 mph and higher this is not acceptable. The change in tires makes no difference in performance. This is documenting complaint number 2 from the [xxx] family. Please do not allow families with children to drive this vehicle without a warning or the teen age demographic that loves to drive wranglers.
