| Component | STEERING |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | Tight steering at highway speeds (over 60mph) most likely to happen in colder temperatures. To give you an idea: you are driving on the highway and want to switch lanes. It will feel as if your steering wheel is locked and that you cannot steer it to the next lane. You will have trouble keeping your vehicle straight on the highway as well, constantly veering to the right. This vehicle feels very dangerous to drive at highway speeds. Took the vehicle in to the dealer 3 times, with the same " we cannot reproduce the issue" run around. I am certain that there is an issue and hope jeep (fca) owns up and issues a recall. |
