Internal NHTSA #	11257146

Brand	JEEP
Model	WRANGLER
Model Year	2018
File date	01/09/19
Component	STEERING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	My 2018 jl wrangler has a significant "dead band" in the center of the steering. The steering wheel can be turned side to side with no change in wheel direction both while stationary and moving. This necessitates exagurated inputs to keep the vehicle in the middle of the lane and makes maintaining a straight line difficult. It requires white knuckled driving while driving next to a semi on the freeway. It already has the updated damper and trackbar installed by the dealer. The dealer currently claims "it's a jeep thing" and there is no issue. There is a 4000 post thread on the jl forum that disagrees.
