Description of the problem	My 2018 jeep wrangler has experienced power steering failure primarily during highway driving and more often in cold weather. You become aware of the failure after entering the highway and attempt a slight correction right or left and realize there is no power assist. You apply more pressure then realize it is going to take a lot more effort to make the car move in the direction desired, the initial thought is the car is not going to turn but with more pressure it finally moves. This may continue for a few seconds or can come and go for miles. I cannot make the car do it at will so i've made no effort to have the car repaired. I also have followed forums on line describing steering problems but as of yet,it appears there is no dealer repair offered. The car has been in service since 5/5/2018. The problem has persisted since shortly after delivery. I am currently just past 40k miles in this time period. Out of factory warranty but i did purchase a 100k mile warranty at time of sale. I keep thinking this problem is going to become a recall along with excessive steering play,(wandering),and the ever famous "death wobble" of which this vehicle has all three. So far that hasn't happened. Regardless of being termed safety issues my experience is that they are most certainly safety issues.
