2018 Jeep WRANGLER Steering Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1603735
Internal NHTSA #	11257565
Manufacurer	Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
Brand	JEEP
Model	WRANGLER
Model Year	2018
File date	15/03/19
Component	STEERING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Steering has play in steering wheel - you can move the steering wheel from left to right about 1 inch and it does not turn the wheels. This problem was about 2 inches when i bought the vehicle but a replacement trackbar installed under warranty has reduced the play but it still has about 1" where is is not affecting steering. This leads to driver fatigue in an attempt to keep the vehicle in the lane as it requires a constant back/and forth turn on the steering wheel to stay in lane. I've had it into the dealer 6 times for them to fix the problem and while it is better than it was originally it is still not fixed and dangerous. I'm told by my dealer that it is "normal" that would indicate that "normal" is the for the vehicle to have dangerous steering and likely the worst steering out of any vehicle built in the past 20 years. -- very hard to keep in the lane at 55 mph.
