Description of the problem	So today it's a little on the cold side. I jumped into the jeep and onto the highway and get up to 60mph. The car in front of me decides to pretty much stop in my lane. Very little time to react, i try to turn into the lane to my right and the steering feels really stiff like the tire is against something then suddenly there is no resistance causing me to overcorrect and nearly lose control of the jeep. Sitting on the side of the road, the steering feels normal. I speed back up and as i get up to around 50-60mph the steering suddenly feels very tight again, not wanting to turn more than 15-20 degrees, then it goes away and a bit further down the road it suddenly comes back. I think litebrite had a video of this a while back. I've never had any steering issues with my jl. It drives absolutely great but i have to say this is terrifying because it felt like someone was holding the steering wheel to prevent me from turning and then suddenly just let go causing over correction.
