| Description of the problem | 2019 jeep wrangler rubicon jl - no modifications, all stock. Steering issues. I noticed at about 250 miles, the jeep will drift in to other lanes at any given time for no apparent reason. Trying to correct, causes a wobble. It is very exhausting and frightening just trying to keep the jeep in a single lane going forward at highway speeds while drifting and correcting. I took the jeep to my local dealer and they told me there was a new recall that came out just days ago. The recall was for a new steering damper. I drove it for about a day and all seemed fine. Now, the jeep is back to drifting again, i think not as bad but i do not have much to compare as i am now at 750 miles and owned 2 weeks. I am very concerned that someone could get very hurt when the jeep drifts in to other lanes or off the side of the road. I did not buy my jeep so that i could use it off road or to modify. I bought it because i liked exactly the way it was. I am not interested in selling, trading, or using the "lemon law". I am strongly urging the nhtsa please open an investigation into the steering issues before people start getting seriously hurt. |
