2018 Jeep WRANGLER Steering Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1502266
Internal NHTSA #	11133291
Manufacurer	Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
Brand	JEEP
Model	WRANGLER
Model Year	2018
File date	04/10/18
Component	STEERING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Same issue as many others: loose steering especially at highway speeds, and dead spots off center. Requires constant correction to stay in lane, which at highway speeds and next to trucks can be terrifying. Former wrangler jk owner, so i know it's not a "jeep thing". Seen many reports of lose ball joints, weak track bar welds, and incorrect alignments, in addition to the new aluminum gearbox, as contributing to the issue. Jeep needs a comprehensive steering fix for the jl, and soon. I believe this issue started for builds around april and later, in response to reports steering for some was locking up. I believe jeep went the other direction and simply made the steering loose instead of fixing the actual lockup issue. Jeep must come up with a true solution that results in no lock ups and tight, reliable, solid steering.
