 Description of the problemJeep wrangler 2018 jl with 1010 miles and 5 weeks old. Steering is very loose when driving at any speed, but say at 60, i can move the steering wheel at least 2 inches from right to left before the steering responds. It takes constant corrections to keep the vehicle in your lane. We live in a mountainous area with narrow windy roads and many large trucks (logging trucks etc). Its extremely dangerous to drive these roads with the vehicle because your constantly correcting to stay in your lane. I've had it to the dealer, they've acknowledged the issue, but their telling me they drove another jeep just like mine and it does the same thing so they don't know what to do. They and i are contacting jeep. At this time i won't let me wife or kids drive the vehicle, and it's pretty much parked in the garage until this issue is resolved.
