WE MADE ARRANGEMENTS AT OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO GET THE RECALL WORK DONE BUT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART ON HAND EVEN AFTER THEY CONFIRMED THEY DID. THAT WAS ON JANUARY 15, 2021.

IT HAD BEEN OVER A MONTH AND A HALF AND WE HAVE NOT HEARD A WORD FROM THEM EVEN AFTER NUMEROUS EMAILS ASKING FOR AN UPDATE.

2018 JEEP WRANGLER HAS TERRIFYING STEERING ISSUES. CONSISTENTLY WHILE STEERING A HIGHWAY CURVE AT 40-55 MPH MY JEEP STEERING DISENGAGES AND RESULTS IN AN UNSAFE INABILITY TO MAINTAIN THE STEERING COLUMN. THE STEERING CAN BE DESCRIBED AS LOOSE AND COMMONLY DESCRIBED BY PASSENGERS AS THE UNSETTLING FEELING THAT THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE IS COMING OFF THE WHEELS. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS SAFETY ISSUE.

DEALER HAS REPLACED THE STEERING GEARBOX AND NOW SAYS IT DRIVES AS IT SOHULD. TAKEN VEHICLE TO OTHER SHOPS AND WAS TOLD THAT WHILE MOVING THE STEERING WHEEL BACK AND FORTH THE DRAG LINK MOVES IMMEDIATLY BUT THE TIE ROD DOES NOT WHICH CONTRIBUTES TO THE EXCESSIVE PLAY FELT IN THE STEERING WHEEL.

THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP WHILE DRIVING. THIS ESPECIALLY HAPPENS IN COLD WEATHER. THE STEERING WHEEL IS EITHER DIFFICULT TO TURN / SLOW TO RESPOND TO TURNING, OR, ON ONE OCCASION (FEB 7, 2021), IT LOCKED UP COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS TRYING TO FOLLOW A CURVE IN THE ROAD AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND. I HAD TO STOP THE CAR TO GET THE WHEEL TO UNLOCK. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR THE LAST MONTH, AND CULMINATED IN THE VERY ALARMING EPISODE ON FEB 7. AFTER GOOGLING THIS ISSUE, I'M AWARE THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM IN JEEP WRANGLERS (LIKE MINE) PURCHASED IN LATE 2017 THROUGH EARLY 2018. I PURCHASED MY JEEP IN FEB, 2018. I'VE NOTIFIED CHRYSLER AND MY DEALERSHIP. MY DEALERSHIP INFORMS ME THAT IT IS LIKELY THE GEARBOX, BUT THEY ARE ON A 3 WEEK BACK ORDER. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE, BUT AM TAKING IT TO MY DEALERSHIP TOMORROW (FEB 9) TO BE DIAGNOSED, AND HOPE TO ARRIVE THERE SAFELY.
