| Description of the problem | Vehicle delivered with excessive steering wheel play. About 10 degrees+ of free play. After multiple visits to dealer, and replacement of steering gearbox, it is less, about 5 degrees of free play. Dealer and jeep wave have told me there is nothing more they can do. I would send/upload a short video (mp4) that shows this, but it does not look like that is an option. |
