 Description of the problemMy brand new, 2018 jeep has 768 miles on it and the steering is loose to say the least. If the front track bar bracket (solid front axle in line with the body of the vehicle) still has welds that are off seam, can cause the bracket to detach from the frame and can cause loose, vague steering to a complete system failure. Recall statement: "the separation of the front track bar bracket from the frame may cause a reduction in the steering response, which can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning," this is my third jeep and 2nd jeep wrangler. The dealership states they repaired the recall, 2 months prior to the purchase date, but i do not believe they did. If the dealership claimed the repair to jeep i am sure they pocketed the money. This is a huge safety risk as the steering is recalled as a safety recall - the dealership should be liable and jeep needs to inspect that the recalls at the very least one and those that claim to do the repairs and do not - should have their ability to offer jeep products revoked.
