| Description of the problem | Driving down the highway this morning to work, entering a curve on the highway i nearly lost all ability to steer my jeep at 60mph. I had to tug on the wheel with both hands to keep it on the highway. The steering came back after about 30 seconds almost resulting in an over correction. Then about 10 minutes later it happened again this time i was on a much straighter piece of road thankfully. The rest of my 30 min drive to work was uneventful. I've called two dealerships and been in touch with the jeep wave program representatives. They are saying they can't look at it for days. My car is unsafe to drive at highways speeds and its up to me to just wait until they can look at it. |
