2019 JEEP WRANGLER Steering Problems

Concern: Suspension, steering, and electrical system malfunction Description of the Problem: While driving at highway speeds (approximately 75 mph), the vehicle experiences a wiggling or unstable sensation in the suspension, making the car feel unsafe. At the same time, the steering wheel becomes stiff and difficult to turn. Additionally, a warning message appears stating “Service Shifter.” When this occurs, the electrical system freezes, affecting vehicle functions. This electrical malfunction lasts for 1 to 2 days, during which systems do not respond properly before eventually resetting on their own. Safety Concern: The suspension instability, loss of steering responsiveness, and electrical failure at high speeds present a serious safety risk to the driver and others on the road. Request: Requesting a full inspection of the suspension, steering system, shifter system, and electrical components, including any sensors or modules that may be causing these failures.

Filing this complaint regarding a known safety defect affecting my 2019 Jeep Wrangler Sport - specifically the steering damper column defect commonly referred to as "Death Wobble." ISSUE: My vehicle experiences violent and uncontrollable steering wheel oscillation when hitting bumps or road imperfections at highway speeds (typically above 55 mph). This phenomenon causes the entire front end to shake violently, requiring me to immediately slow down to regain control of the vehicle. This poses an extreme safety risk to myself, my passengers, and other motorists. I believe my vehicle has an issue with steering damper failure - the exact same defect addressed in Customer Satisfaction Notification V41 issued by FCA in June 2019. THE PROBLEM: While FCA issued CSN V41 covering approximately 192,000 2018-2019 Jeep Wranglers for steering damper defects, however my VIN was excluded from this notification despite experiencing the identical safety defect. FCA selectively applied the remedy to certain VINs rather than addressing all affected vehicles from these model years. SAFETY CONCERNS: This defect creates loss of vehicle control at highway speeds, significantly increasing crash risk. The NHTSA investigation (PE19-012) identified frame weld quality deficiencies and steering-related defects in 2018-2019 Wranglers affecting approximately 270,000 vehicles. Multiple investigations have documented steering looseness, steering wobble/shimmy, and loss of steering control in these model years. MANUFACTURER REFUSAL: Despite the known defect and my vehicle exhibiting the exact symptoms addressed in CSN V41, I believe once I take it in for service, Jeep will refuse to repair this safety issue under warranty, forcing me to bear the financial burden for a known manufacturing defect. REQUEST: I request NHTSA investigate why FCA limited CSN V41 to select VINs when the defect clearly affects a broader population of 2018-2019 Wranglers.

The steering wheel started to shake and then escalated to the whole car shaking at which time I had to stop the vehicle on the highway to make it stop shaking. This isn’t the first time this has happened.

The problem occurs in my 2019 Jeep Wrangler, suddenly, typically after hitting a small bump or uneven section of pavement at around 60–70 mph. The entire front end begins to shake violently, and the steering wheel jerks rapidly back and forth, making it extremely difficult to maintain control of the vehicle. The only way to stop the shaking is to brake hard and slow down below 50 mph, which creates a dangerous situation. This violent steering vibration causes loss of directional stability and could easily lead to an accident if it happens in traffic or during lane changes. The sensation is so severe that it feels as if the front suspension or wheels are coming loose. I brought my Jeep to Wallace Jeep in Stuart, Florida where the technicians confirmed steering instability but stated that the steering damper is covered but the steering gear is not covered under warranty. I also contacted Jeep Cares, case # [XXX], and was told that Jeep “does not have to cover” my vehicle, even though it falls directly within the affected 2018–2020 Wrangler JL range identified in the [XXX]. v. FCA US LLC class action settlement related to the Death Wobble. The dealership’s refusal contradicts Jeep’s own Technical Service Bulletin 08-074-20 REV. E (“Improved Steering Feel”), which addresses steering wander, pull, and excessive play by replacing the steering gear and updating the EHPS software — exactly the symptoms I’m experiencing. This is a serious safety issue that occurs without warning and has not been resolved through the repairs or coverage Jeep has offered. The manufacturer’s denial of responsibility despite a known defect leaves drivers at risk of losing control at highway speeds. I am requesting that the NHTSA investigate and require Jeep/Stellantis to expand the recall or provide full coverage for all steering-related components contributing to this dangerous condition.

My 2019 Jeep Wrangler is experiencing the "death wobble" every time I hit any uneven pavement while traveling at 60-65. This is extremely unsettling and could cause serious injury or death. Why haven't all the Jeeps during this time span been recalled considering the number of reports of this issue on the 2019 Jeep Wrangler?

Service Antilock Brake System. Service Shifter. Service 4WD. Loss communication with MPH. ABS light. Traction Control. Power Steering Failing. BRAKE. Doors Lock/Unlock. Vehicle shut down while I was driving and locked me out completely. Replaced Part No. 68321746AA-001 Vehicle was taken to four auto shops. None were able to diagnosed the issue. Mopar shop wanted to charge over $1,600 to replace ABS sensors and other items. I referred them to look at the part and was told it was not going to fix the issue. It did fix the issue. I have spent the last 2 months trying to figure out what was wrong with my vehicle and several funds later.

I drove over a rough patch/bump in the road. A ton of warning messages and failure lights activated on the dash. In addition to the check engine light, there were warnings for electronic stability protection, sway bar disconnect, ABS failure, power steering failure, shift lever malfunction. In addition to these malfunctions a failures, the windshield wipers turned on un-commanded and the radiator fan went into the highest possible speed, the digital engine temperature gauge failed, and both the digital and analog speedometers failed. This happened on a arterial road, losing power steering and braking at ~30mph unexpectedly was a shock, but manageable. At highway speeds it likely would have led to an accident or collision. Unfortunately, I don't have any documentation of the failure lights and systems failing, but it had happened several times prior to this occurrence, albeit only with dash warning lights, no actual system failures. After the system failures, I stopped driving the vehicle. The problem appears to be somewhat widespread and is caused by a failing CAN-C BUS. A quick google search will reveal NUMEROUS descriptions on the same dangerous issue. This thread seems to clearly expIain the root of the issue with the CAN-C BUS: [XXX] I replaced my old CAN-C BUS (p/n 68321746AA) with a new part and it appears to have resolved the issue. I have saved the old CAN-C BUS for inspection if NHTSA is interested. It looks exactly like the failed BUS in the linked reddit thread above.

have been experiencing extreme shaking and vibration so called “death wobble.” In 2023 I took it to the dealership to look into the issue to which they changed the steering stabilizer. Even though that helped for a few years however it did not resolve the problem. It was still occurring just not to the same degree. Currently I have tried to reach out to the dealership to look into the problem and the dealership refuses as the car or the part is not covered under warranty. However not enough time or mileage has passed for the car to not be under warranty. The dealership and the FCA refuse to help. This issue is very serious! It common with these models of Jeep wranglers and are life threatening.

While driving I received random warnings on the dashboard: airbag failure, power steering failure, shift control failure, ABS failure. After the flashing of all those warning, I lost the power steering and the ability to shift from Drive to Neutral. My inability to steer the car and loss of speed put my passengers and myself at risk and the safety of cars driving on the opposite lane at risk as I was able only to make very wide turns. I took the car to the dealer and after about two weeks the mechanic narrowed down the problem to a failure of the ABS module and told me that that part is on backorder nation wide and may take over 3 months to come. I was advised to not drive the car or to drive at my own risk.

Shortly after starting the vehicle and entering roadway, the power steering failed and shortly following an error came on regarding the ABS system. I was able to pull the vehicle over safely, restart and the issue seemed resolved in that use. Next day, shortly after starting vehicle, same errors occurred, but self corrected. The day after that, shortly after starting the vehicle, all systems on the front panel cycled through several error codes, when attempting to shut the vehicle off to restart it, the vehicle would not shut off. Using the standard transmission, I was able to create a stall situation, but the vehicle's electrical would not shut off. After removing the key fab, the electrical system kept activating power systems, even turning on the windshield wipers when the control was in the off position. After 20 minutes and several attempts I was finally able to get the system to completely shut off.

Dash panel started flashing all gauges went to zero. All warning lamps lit ABS failure, power steering stopped, service antilock breaks, service electronic stability control, auto park disabled and service shift warnings started popping up. I was going 70 mph on the highway when the power steering went out. Luckily I didn’t hit anyone.

Lost communication on ABS, traction control , 4wd service, vehicle put itself in auto park, steering wheel locked up and wasn't able to turn the steering wheel, dashboard lights flickering, try turning on vehicle but wasn't responding until a 3 minutes later , check engine light is still on but doesn't have any store messages on dashboard, I have a video of it.

In two separate incidents (six months apart) and without warning, the Jeeps power steering suddenly failed. An indicator warning did come on but not prior to the failure in both instances. In both situations, I was attempting to exit very busy highways and little to no control over my vehicle. Some time after I had exited the highway, the Jeeps powering steering suddenly came back on. When I returned home, I had the vehicle inspected at the dealership both times and they were unable to determine any reason as to why the steering would have failed and without warning. Without an identifiable and fixable problem, I am very concerned about my personal safety and the safety of others on the roadway in the event that this should happen again without warning.

ABS module went out in July of 2024, after being replaced in February 2024. Jeep does not have any of the parts available, the same part was recalled for the Grand Cherokee and Ram 1500. My jeep has been unable to drive since the part malfunctioned.

The Module Steer in the steering wheel has failed in my 2019 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon.

When vehicle hits pot hole front end steering wheel vibrate shakes steering wheel and whole car. I took it to Jeep dealership in Beeville Tx and was told it’s not under warranty

Vehicle has electrical issues that cause system malfunctions including loss of ABS, power steering, speed control, and speedometer. Multiple attempts by jeep dealership are unable to diagnose issues.

Our 2019 Jeep recently experienced the “death rattle” where the steering and suspension shake violently at speeds 65 mph and above. This recently occurred on a 70 mph freeway and nearly caused a sideswipe accident with a large semi as I was thrown from my travel lane. The Jeep owners forum (and Fiat Chrysler America) know about this issue with the steering dampener, but neither the NHTSA nor FCA has seen fit to issue a warning or recall. Our Jeep is never taken off-road and is under 60,000 miles. We are the original owners, and the Jeep is currently with the dealer.

while driving on Interstate Highyway aproximately 65 MPH and passing over a bridge the front end started shaking violently. I hit the brakes and it finally stopped as I slowed. It did this 6 times on the same trip and has repeated multiple times. I took it to the dealer and told them it had done this when I first bought it and they said they would have to evalaute it. When I first bought the car it had 19k miles on it with this death wobble. They said it needed a recall accomplished and it never happened again. Now the car has 71k miles on it and it is happening again. The dealer says they have to order a part. I believe the car is unsafe to drive on an interstate with this condition. Also owners with similar Jeeps have to be aware that this condition which was fixed with a recall can return after so many miles. They will not tell me the component or part number of the component.

Vehicle has a loose steering feel and wanders , Jeep has a TSB for a steering box replacement for this issue but will not cover the cost under warranty

I have a 2019 jeep wrangler with under 50,000 miles. The steering damper is defective. I was experiencing what is known as the death wobble. I searched my vin for a recall. No recall is associated with my vin number, although there is a recall for 2019 jeep wranglers. I took my jeep into the dealer to have them inspect. They told me that the steering damper is bad and needs to be replaced. They suggested using an after marker sterling damper because the Oem part is garbage. I paid over $400 to replace the steering damper. I have called and chatted online with Jeep about this concern. Nothing is being done because my vin is not part of the recall even though I had a defective steering damper. The death wobble was getting really bad and I was afraid of getting into an accident. I believe jeep is being reckless and negligent with this lack on action.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving at approximately 70 MPH, the front passenger’s side wheel started shaking violently, and the vehicle was maneuvered over to the side of the road to be inspected. The vehicle was taken to the residence. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the screw hex flange head, bearing intermediate shaft support, shaft steering column, and bolt needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure reoccurred two weeks later. The vehicle was taken to the same dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the same parts needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure recurred approximately 18 months later. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 25,911.

Mileage: 25,911

ABS light came on, car will stop on its own while driving 70 miles an hour and kill the acceleration. steering will go out. speedometer will not work. check engine light will come on. gear shift gets stuck in place. This car is a major safety hazard that Jeep has ignored. I have gotten stuck on the side of the road on bridges, highways side streets due to the fact the gear shift will not move out of park and all the lights come on in the car.

ABS light will come on, speedometer will stop working, Gear shift will lock up and not move. Jeep will stop moving while on highway at random times without any warning. Steering will lock up on turns not allowing the vehicle to turn.

I hit a bump at 65 mph. Then my jeep started to shake from side to side so viciously that I thought it was going to fall apart. I did some research and it’s called a death wobble! For some reason there are no recalls on my specific Vehicle .

While driving at interstate speed and passing over an irregular surface the jeep started to shimmy and I later found out it was called "Death Wobble". The jeep started to wonder across the lanes of the highway and I had to slow to 45 mph to stop the shimmy and get control of the vehicle, I assume the the problem is in the steering or the front suspension. After talking to a mechanic I found out that a recall has already been performed to replace the steering vibration damper. The mechanic could not find any loose or damaged front end parts upon inspection. Since the initial incident the shimmy has happened multiple times at slower and slower speeds. There was no prior warning by the jeep instrument panel.

I was stopped waiting for traffic to clear to make a right turn into oncoming traffic. I started going to the nearest lane I had available . When I was half way into the turn, the power steering went out. I had to react fast as there was a vehicles coming and due to the power steering failing it caused me to merge slightly into the middle lane. Luckily the other vehicle that was going to crash me changed lanes. So I pulled over and turned off the jeep, turned it back on and it drove normal. I have taken it to multiple shops and they stated pcm is okay battery is okay but they cannot find what nearly put my 2 year old son in an accident.

While driving the power steering went out. Stopped turned the engine off and back on. It still happened several times. Had to the power steering replaced with a power steering pump bought from Chrysler and it did it again. Now what?

It started about 4 months ago and continues to get worse and more frequent but it starts shaking and wobbling violently at high speeds especially if you hit a bump it’s almost impossible to keep it in the road. It’s very scary and dangerous. After googling I heard about the death wobble which Chrysler has recalled some of the same models as mine. Any information or help you could give us would be appreciated. It also just started overheating when sitting idle probably not related but don’t understand why mine is having so many problems it’s not old enough

While driving the last couple days, our 2019 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon unlimited started the “Death Wobble”, an uncontrollable violent shaking from left to right. Occurred three days in a row, took vehicle to Jeep dealership to ensure extended warranty coverage

1st problem was death wobble on highway took to dealer fix, 2nd problem was death wobble on highway tire rods fixed. 3rd problem stealing lock on highway and car wobbling. Towing to dealer. All times car had to be towed. All times going 50 on highway which has been dangerous.

The front seat belt retractors do not lock as intended to prevent increased risk of injury in the event of a car crash Jeep wobbles when hit a bump on highway going 50+ mph (no customization or modifications)

Had damper replaced due to death wobble at 39k miles under extended warranty related to FCA lawsuit. At 59k miles experienced same death wobble and nearly crashed at highway speeds. Took it in and they said the cause was the tie rods were bad, damper was within threshold, but would replace it too as a courtesy and abundance of caution. Wouldn’t do damper replacement without tie rod fix though. Didn’t have damper and would take 5 days to get in (1 day for tie rod part), but when I stated I wanted to repair it they miraculously came up with all the parts and had it finished before tie rod part even showed up. My complaint is that the original FCA lawsuit where they replaced damper was a bandaid for the real problem which is the tie rods. I paid the $2500 but will be pushing this up the chain of command. I know the lawsuit alluded to the damper not being the root of the problem but a cheaper fix for Jeep. The entire experience has been shady at best. Stew Hansen’s in Des Moines, Iowa was the service department.

I bought this 2019 jeep wrangler and it is still under manufacturer warranty on the transmission and the steering damper . The transmission in my car was leaking bad and I took it to the jeep dealership and they did not know what was wrong or how to fix it . They are all incompetent and stupid and unprofessional and know nothing about cars also the recall on the steering damper was done 2 years ago and now I had to replace it because the car was dangerously shaking very bad . The transmission is still under manufacturer warranty and I took it to another shop and he fixed the leak in the transmission and he said it’s it’s the cooler line connector in the transmission so this repair that cost me 478 dollars should be refunded to me from Jeep manufacturer since it’s still under warranty

When driving at speeds of approximately 45+ the front end for no apparent reason begins to violently shake back & forth making the vehicle impossible to control. You must immediately put on the brakes to slow the vehicle until the wobbling stops. This has progressively gotten worse. It’s what is referred to as the Jeep death wobble. It is in the shop now waiting to be looked at.

I have had a multitude of problems with this vehicle since driving it off the lot. The most recent “the jeep death wobble”

The board computer started to mention „service shifter“ when I was driving. Then the engine switched in neutral when I was still driving, telling a problem about the shifter. Later other systems failed, for example the servo for the steering, ehat has been very dangerous, as the steering wheel did not react anymore and I had to do a emergency break. Also, the engine could not be stopped.

Typically in the morning my steeling will jerk the first time I make a turn. Luckily I was able to get it under control but almost went off the side of the rode.

The steering is loose and you have to turn the wheel a lot for it to go around a curve and it’s just a hassle

The steering wheel locks up in which it makes it very hard to turn. This usually happens when the vehicle has been sitting for hours and then is driven. Also the weather is usually cold when this happens. Initial driving is hard and it continues for a few minutes. When driving around a roundabout the wheel almost did not straighten out and I would have been going into the curb. This is a dangerous situation in which it has occurred on a regular straight road. The incident occurs at any speed. After putting the vehicle in drive, it is hard to maneuver at the start of being in a parking position. There are no warning lights or error codes that reflect an issue. The dealership has checked it out twice and cannot reproduce the issue. I stated 11/4/23 as the date of occurrence but it has happened many times since late 2022.

Driving 60+ miles you hit a bump and the truck starts shaking real bad the whole truck That the only way to make the vehicle stop from shaking is slowing down the speed to 30 mph or complete stop until it goes away the terrible shaking. I already reemplace many suspension parts like the track bar,tie rod and the drag link and still having that issue

My 2019 jeep wrangler steering wheel starts to vibrate then shake and then the car shakes while I am driving on the highway. It happened 4 times in the last week. One time last week , 2 times last night and once tonight while driving on the highway.

Significant play in the steering. Very noticeable at highway speeds, vehicle tended to wander and need a lot of steering input to track straight. Took it to the dealer, the replicated the problem. There is a bulletin # 08-003-21 REV A. The repair cost $1300. Seems like it should be a recall and covered by the manufacturer.

While driving all dash lights come on and steering locks up. Been in shop for weeks and they cannot find out the reason. There are several videos on YouTube of same issues. This is very dangerous, especially if driving at highway speeds. How do i file to get this on recall list? My wife was driving at low speed when it happened and was able to get to side of road.

While driving, traction control light came on. Eventually went away after shutting off vehicle, but engine light came on. Things escalated a week later when all warning lights starting coming on while I was driving and I lost power steering. I took to the dealership and they said several wires had rubbed against a condenser. The fixed the wires. Approx. 2 weeks go by with no problems. Then my Jeep was idling in a parking lot and all the lights start coming on and what I assume was the engine fan started running. It sounded like the Jeep was going to blow up the way the fan was running. I shut the Jeep off and when turned back on, the engine light was on and was able to drive it home. Took it to the dealership and as sitting in the parking lot, it again had all the warning lights going off and the fan went crazy again. It has now been at the dealership for two weeks. No answers. I’ve done research on line and there are lots of people experiencing the same problem. Needs a recall! This is absolutely dangerous to be occurring when driving.

Steering wheel as a massive 30 degree play while driving.

2019 wrangler jl sport 2 door manual. 68,000miles. started with flashing abs light 2months ago with then start stop not working given i replaced the aux battery 3 months before this happened delearship said both batteries needed replaced so i did that. moving forward 2 weeks agos i got all these codes ,picture attached ,ran the scanner because i got my dash lit up with every warning you can possibly imagine. every time it happened ( more then 5times , less then 10)it wouldnt let me turn it over to off but wound turn over to acc. while making a weird noise(video attached) .finally it will turn over to off..one day on the turnpike the jeep did this but this time i lost my power steering. the dealership has had it now for over a week. the pulled over 60codes for communication. they clear the codes and have driven it over 100miles not being able to replicate the-same problem i had and no codes are popping up. they still have the jeep.

This issue has been going on for over a year now. Vehicle shakes violently when leaving uneven surfaces such as coming off of a bridge on the highway. You have to come to a complete stop to get it to stop shaking. This is very dangerous when on a highway. Vehicle has been inspected by local dealership and parts have been ordered but continue to be on backorder. The dealership states that they have seen other jeeps with this issue. I personally know people who have also experienced this, and not all have the same year as my jeep.

I have a 2019 Jeep wrangler. Within the first 3 months of having my jeep I experienced issues with the battery. I came to a stop at a stop sign, the auto on/of turned the vehicle off but then it wouldn't come back on when I tried to drive. It showed a battery light and the auto on/off sign with an exclamation mark first then all lights on the dashboard started flickering, windshield wipers came on, and then it started beeping. I had to get a tow truck to get my car out the street. When I took it to the dealership they said both batteries needed to be replaced. Since then I have had the same situation happen twice for a total of 3 times in my 1 year of having the car. Each time I have to tow the jeep to the dealership and replace the batteries. They check the fuse but can't figure out the cause. As for the steering, I cannot go over 80 mph without experiencing "death wobble".

Vehicle experiencing "Death Wobble." Steering is very shaky if a bump is hit at highway speeds.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving 55 MPH uphill, the vehicle failed to respond upon depressing the accelerator pedal. The check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle lost power steering functionality. Additionally, the stereo and the windshield wipers engaged independently. A message indicating a shifter column failure was displayed, and other unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact was able to exit the highway and pulled into a driveway, where she parked the vehicle. The contact stated that the engine continued running after pressing the Start/Stop button several times to turn off the vehicle. Additionally, the contact stated that the engine revved up significantly while the accelerator pedal was not depressed. The contact pressed the Start/Stop button again, and the vehicle turned off. The contact then restarted the vehicle, and the vehicle responded as needed; however, the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that upon using an OBD reader, codes indicating lost communication with ABS control module, torque request signal from PCM denied, CAN communication messages missing, invalid data from ECM/PCM, Lost communication with SCM/CANC and implausible missing transmission message, were read. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 75,000.

Mileage: 75,000

I purchased this vehicle used and out of warranty in February of this year 2023. I've had continuous issues with the steering. I have contacted my local dealerships explaining my issues. I've contacted FCA explaining my issues. By both I'm told I need to bring my vehicle in for a diagnostic test that will cost me $250 plus dollars and then ANY REPAIR will cost out of pocket. The vehicle wonders while driving at speeds any speed, but more so at highway speeds, I have almost 2" of slop in my steering wheel, a shimmy in the front and have experienced DEATH WOBBLE numerous times. My family will not ride in my wrangler and I personally feel it is UNSAFE as well. I have already personally replaced ball joints and an aftermarket steering stabilizer in hopes of correcting these issues. I learned that FCA is aware of an issue with the aluminum steering gear of which my wrangler still has. I also learned of a TSB for the steering stabilizer, track bar and software update for the power steering itself. As previously stated ALL MY SYMPTOMS ARE EXACTLY AS THESE TSB'S DESCRIBE, and I had no knowledge of them prior to purchasing and experiencing these issues.

The steering on this vehicle has always seem to have a lack of input, just wonders about the lane. Driving it on a windy day is bordered on dangerous as the wind will push you around. The Jeep has a pull to the right and while you counter steer that and get a gust also pushing you left, you now are in the other lane. I was on I25 on a windy day fighting the steering and passed a 18 wheeler the dead air while next to the truck allows the Jeep to relax somewhat then the gust from the front of the truck pushed me into the next lane before I could correct nearly making contact with the car in that lane. If that car had not made an evasive maneuver we would have sure collided. As it turns out Jeep is aware of this issue and has a tsb (08-074-20 REV. B) to replace a poorly designed steering gear box but will only do so if the vehicle is under the 3/36 warranty. This Jeep has 47k miles, under no circumstances should a steering gear box be worn out at that mileage period. This should be a recall! Make these manufacturers spend some of the billions in profits and fix the junk they sell. Steering and brakes should be first on the list of things that get recalled.

My jeep is not safe on road for its' passengers or any surrounding vehicles, it has been out of service in 2 different certified jeep facilities for over 11 months, and they cannot repair the loss of steering. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to two dealerships and neither on could diagnose or repair the issue.

2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport - while driving the steering wheel locks up and all lights on dashboard come on. Several error messages "Auto Park Disabled", "Speed Control Messaging Unavailable", "Service Antilock Brake System", "Service Transmission Continue in DRIVE. Do Not Shift or Turn Off Engine" - to name a few. The car will not shut off, I had to remove a fuse to get the truck to turn off. No dealer or mechanic can assess or fix. Major Saftey concern. There needs to be a recall. Im out thousands of dollars trying to fix. My warranty expired the truck is a lemon. 04/16/2023 UPDATE- Letter from Attorney Gen. Off. of Illinois along with consumer complaint online form that states- Consumer had recall repairs done, issue still not fixed. Wants class action lawsuit. Requesting an exchange or refund for repairs, monetary compensation for pain & suffering, from anxiety and missed days at work from being stranded.

About 2-2.5 months ago, our 2019 Jeep Wrangler completely stalled out at a stop light. At the time it stalled, the dash started flashing and gave me many warning lights. I was unable to put the transmission in park in order to try to start the vehicle again. After many attempts, I was finally able to place in park and start the vehicle. I then went thru a drive thru and it did the same thing and left me stranded in the drive thru lane without being able to start it for about 10 minutes. The next day, I was on my way to work and while traveling on the highway at 75 miles per hour, the vehicle stalled out, the dash wigged out and I lost all control of the vehicle including steering. The engine revved up to a higher RPM and I was unable to put it in neutral to try to slow it down and control the vehicle to a safe stop on the side of the highway. There were a couple of close calls with other vehicles due to the inability to control the steering or the engine speed. The next day, I took the Jeep to the dealership and when scanned for codes, there was over 150 codes including losing communication with the Body Control Module. Dealership test drove and the tech had the vehicle replicate the issues and leave him stranded 7 times in one day from and back to the shop. At this time, my concern is the safety of my family. For now it appears that the issue has been resolved, but there have been many similar instances reported with the same danger of crashing. Paperwork obtained from my dealership reflects there was a module that was replaced when the vehicle had less than 8,000 miles that was supposed to fix this issue, however it occurred to our jeep that had less than 25,000 miles on it. The paperwork also states "!!Attention!! This vehicle may have had 7 visits, 69 days down and 8 repeat repairs, service personnel should notify dealership service management and engage FCA service and parts resources." Doesn't this fall under the Lemon Law?

I am reporting the Jeep "death wobble". I have made an appointment to have the dealer look at the issue but experienced the death wobble on the interstate two different times traveling at 72 and 73 MPH. After going over a relatively small bump at 73 MPH going east on I-94 at right around mile marker 260 in Wisconsin, my Jeep shook uncontrollably until I reduced speed to under 40 MPH. Again, on my way home on I-94, my daughter hit a bump right around mile marker 246 heading west. The Jeep violently shook and she had to pull over and come to a stop. While we did not get into an accident, the need for rapid deceleration on the interstate absolutely could cause an accident. I am so disappointed in Jeep!

When I was driving on a plane road with no bumps my steering wheel started to shake violently making the whole car and dashboard shake. I’ve called jeep to inform them but they said it is not covered and there is no recall for my vehicle instead want to run a diagnostic and have me pay for the repairs and diagnostic even though it’s a leased vehicle.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving at 50 MPH, the steering wheel was shaking significantly causing the contact to almost lose control of the vehicle. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure ceased upon depressing the brake pedal and coming to a stop. However, the failure reoccurred several times while driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the steering damper and the tie rod needed to be replaced. The contact related the failure to an unknown recall that was previously completed on the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

Was driving interstate in San Diego, CA about 65 mph and on 4 different occasions when I hit a bump or rough patch of road the front end of the car and steering wheel started shaking violently. It was hard to control the vehicle and I had nowhere I could go because I was in traffic at high speeds. Was finally able to move over to a side lane and slow the vehicle down which caused the shaking to stop. No lights of any kind came on in the vehicle. Very dangerous for this to be happening on CA roads with such heavy traffic. Not only does it put me at risk, but others as I have to slow down to 40-45 mph for the shaking to stop. Will be taking it in to dealership for inspection. As I have researched...this appears to be another case of the "death wobble".

I have experienced the steering system death wobble routinely in my daily driving and it is reproducible. When it occurs three vehicle is no longer controllable until rewatching a speed below 40mph. Additionally, the vehicle now wanders more than it did originally with more effort to keep it going straight. Autopark Chrysler Jeep has inspected the vehicle and provided a list of repairs. The costs are exorbitant so only the steering damper was replaced for a cost of $700. The wandering has not been addressed.

I experienced the Jeep Death Wobble on 5 occasions. All five happened at 60 mph or above. The car would suddenly shake violently and felt like it was falling apart. I feared i couldn't steer it, which I had a hard time doing, until i calmed down and started braking. When i got to a slower speed it went back to normal. The front track bar was replaced and an alignment was needed again at 12,000 miles. I first noticed the car going out of alignment before this all happened, then the wobble followed at higher speeds. It was a very scary experience all five times. I read about it and found that the last few times when i hit a small bump it would activate the wobble until i slowed down. This is very upsetting for me as my daughter also drives the car and I feel it is now unsafe since the car is out of alignment once again after 3 months. Jeep needs to address this ASAP. The car has 13,000 miles and is a 2019.

While driving with no warning the fuse array went bad causing the Jeep to lose all power including power steering and started jerk and pulsate. Everything turned off and left the vehicle stranded for several minutes in the middle of a dark street at night. Hazard lights did not work as well during this time. After continuously pushing the start button it started back up with the dashboard showing all different warnings with the clearest one in the middle of the dash reading “stop safely the vehicle will shut off soon” the vehicle was taken to the local dealership where it did the same thing for them. Later it was confirmed by them it was the fuse array.

On multiple occasions, as my Wife and two children 8 and 3 were on their way home from school the steering column locked up and my wife couldn't do anything but coast into a ditch. When the steering wheel locks up, each time it throws messages of loss of communication to the steering wheel, loss communication of the shifter, and loss communication to the brakes. This problem has happened three different times after the dealerships service department has put on multiple parts to try to fix the issue with no resolution. This is a huge safety issue, and we are terrified that this problem will continue to happen. The biggest concern is, what happens if the steering wheel locks up and we cannot avoid a serious accident that could harm our family or other motorists on the road. The manufacturer has recommended we put on abs control module, PCM, and Lower gear box. We have reached out to the dealership and to Jeep about this issue with no help given other than to pay out of our own pocket to fix the problem.

While driving, the steering wheel power steering intermittently goes out. It does not matter whether the car has been warmed up or not. When turning or shifting lanes, it is very difficult to turn the steering wheel. On the highway this has almost caused an accident. The incident has been reported to one dealership once and to another dealership twice. Neither has experienced the issue while driving but I have encountered it lots of times. Without them experiencing the issue, they are unaware of any repairs required and none have been performed yet besides flushing the power steering fluid, which did not resolve the issue. This is definitely a safety issue.

I have experienced the death wobble 4-5 times. The dealer says they have already replaced the steering damper once already. I am concerned there are more issues with the steering system on this Jeep.

Vehicle's front end violently shakes harmonically side to side when driving over 50 mph upon hitting uneven surfaces on highway and interested. When this occurs, the driver loses the ability to safely steer and must brake which is also unsafe to do on the highway or interstate. The harmonic vibration resonates until the speed is reduced to approximately 35 mph.

At any speed over 55 mph any bump or irregularity on the road causes the front tires to rapidly bounce up and down from the left side wheel to the right side wheel. There's almost zero steering control. Emergency braking to under 20 mph is necessary to stop the vibration and regain steering control. Sometimes a complete stop in the travel lane of a highway is necessary. The vehicle was purchased used with 18K miles. After 5K miles a vibration was felt at the front wheels anytime driving over bridge or overpass. At 30K miles the vibration/bounce occasionally required emergency braking. The closest dealer was booked during the Holidays and it was over 30 days for an appointment. During the appointment was told it was the steering dampener, a "known issue" but, the parts are on backorder, no ETA provided. The vehicle is currently unable to drive over 50 mph over any surface. Found almost 500 related posts online for this model vehicle going back to 1980. Why is there not a recall on this failing part?

This jeep has an awful steering issue. Keeping it in the lane im driving in is extremely hard.This vehicle has been looked at for this issue several times and jeep says do this or this and the jeep dealer still hasn't fixed the issue it has been a nightmare to drive i feel like im putting myself and others in danger because the steering issue on this 2019 jeep is extremely loose causing this vehicle to move all over the road.This vehicle is definitely dangerous to drive. If I break suddenly it's pulls majorly to the left and does a dip down if that makes any sense.im super careful not to break fast but in some instances its unavoidable.

Service Shifter warning showed up in center of dash and Check Engine light illuminated coming home from work on a Friday. Parked the car for the weekend, drove it to work Monday morning and there were no lights or warnings. Went to grab lunch 5 minutes away and on the way back, Service Shifter light pops up again (no CEL this time) and complete loss of power steering IN a two lane jughandle to cross a highway putting everyone in that jughandle and on the highway at the intersection at risk. Thankfully the light turned red so I could stop the vehicle. I shut it down, restarted it, and made it back to work. Took it to the dealership after work. 17 times the warning light flashed and chimed during the 30 minute drive to the dealership. They saw no warnings in the computer system and couldn't find a solution after examining the vehicle for almost two weeks. Service Shifter warning still on dash and I'm just waiting until it kills me, I guess?

I purchased this car, jeep sahara 2019 last Wednesday, and the steering wheel locked while is I was turning to the right! and it happens again around five minutes after! And I I couldn’t moved it to the left or to the right! Almost get to an accident l! I’m very concerned because we paid $44,000 dollars for this used vehicle and I honestly lost my trust and confidence on this vehicle because this kind of incidents can ended up in catastrophic accidents!!

Lost all steering while driving on highway coming up to a corner, extreme safety risk. Jeep repair facility can not diagnose and repair my vehicle and it has been out of service for over 6 months this year and its at repair facility unable to be repaired-STARS has been involved. Loss of steering while driving my 6 year old granddaughter, we almost crashed into another vehicle, could have been deadly for both of us, she now won't ride in any car feeling she will get in accident.

Death wobble where the Jeep shakes so violently that you can lose control. It has done this since new. I take it back to the dealer and they say Jeep is aware of the problem and they are working on a fix. Jeeps fix is a replacement steering damper. When I reported it to the dealer, I was told I had to wait until a fix was released. finally at 2125 miles they replaced the first damper. On the way home it death wobbled again. I had to wait again; at 2285 miles they replaced the track bar. The Jeep didn't handle or feel right but it didn't death wobble until Thanksgiving 2022 250 miles from home. I brought it back in and they replaced the steering damper again at 14668 miles. I was told by the service department there are over 6000 dampers on back order. This needs to be a recall since it affects thousands of Jeep Wranglers. My wife refuses to drive the Jeep.

“Death wobble” is happening on Highway when going over 65mph. Took it to the dealership and said there is nothing wrong with the Jeep. Steering wheel shakes violently causing entire vehicle to rattle. Very scary and hard to control

My Jeep is experiencing the death wobble when driving in the highway. Which causes the jeep to violently shake the right side of the front wheel. I have taken it to two jeep dealerships and was told that it can be due to the suspension or differential. I have not drove this jeep on rough terrain or 4 by 4. The dealership is looking into the suspension system for the death wobble problem. The jeep currently stands at 40,000 miles. I also have a warning lamp that shows to service the axle locker system. According to the dealer, the axle locker system is an electrical issue and not a mechanical one. I wanted to report this problem as it is a safety issue and it is dangerous to drive in this condition.

Highway speeds going over a bump in the road the front end/steering wheel will begin to shake violently. The only way to stop it is to release gas and slow down.

On 10-23-2022 while driving on I64 in West Virginia I experienced extreme shaking in the steering wheel and bouncing in the front end of my Jeep. I took the vehicle to the Jeep dealer in Beckley, WV and when I explained the problem a member of the service department stated "That is the shimmy shock." I was told there had been an information bulletin put out on this problem and a temporary solution recommended. On September 5, 2019, I took my Jeep into the dealer I bought it from in ref. to recall# V41 and had the steering damper replaced. On October 31, 2022, I took it in to the dealer for repair and the mechanic noted the wrong damper is installed, the right shock is leaking, and they recommended replacing the Michelin tires that have only 39121 miles on them.

Both front shocks broke and needed to be replaced. Needed a 4-wheel alignment because of this. Broke steering damper. Part not able to get fixed as Chrysler won't release the required part until November 15th even though other Jeeps of this year have been recalled due to this issue. I have the repair paperwork. Experienced a "Death Wobble" on Thursday, October 27th. I'm lucky that I didn't panic and was able to get it out of traffic and on the right side of the road. The Jeep and cab shook violently. Issue confirmed by an independent repair shop. Have paperwork to backup claim. No one else besides the independent shop verified the issue. Dealership claimed it couldn't exist because my vehicle style is not part of the original recall for this issue they are aware of. No, there was no prior warning before this occured.

Continued "death wobble" after suggested repair by dealership.

Steering very loose and vehicle wanders all over like wind is blowing you around. This has caused me to drift out of my lane and nearly colliding with others. Will being to dealer for evaluation. TSB is out for this issue.

Steering wanders. There is at least 2 inches of play in the steering and the Jeep has always had this issue since we purchased it. Driving down the road has aways been a bit like playing "ping pong" with the steering as you have to make slight steering corrections as the Jeep drifts left or right towards the lane lines. I recently lifted the jeep and put on slightly larger tires. This made the wandering and "ping pong" steering control a lot worse. I had the shop make some adjustments and they basically got everything back to where it was before - still playing ping pong as I drive, but now when I take an exit ramp, the traction control light will come on. There is a Jeep technical service bulletin out for this issue. As long as the lift is within specs, changing out the steering box and flashing the software apparently fixes the problem. How can excessive play in steering NOT BE A SAFETY ISSUE? How many accidents must there be, or God forbid, a death on the road, before the manufacturer has to fix this? The dealer wants to charge me $1400 to correct this issue, which they created my failing to design and manufacture a steering box that works properly with their vehicle. If I wanted to fix this myself and install the new steering box, I would have to buy a $10,000 software flash system if I want to make sure all the warning lights correlate to the actual driving characteristics of the vehicle. Very frustrating that I'm driving an "on the margin" vehicle with regards to safety and the manufacturer isn't willing to do the right thing and do a safety recall.

The steering has become very loose, causing the vehicle to feel as though it were drifting with every bump. Entering into a parking lot, or going over speed bumps cause the vehicle to feel as though you are jerking the steering wheel back & forth, with the whole body of the vehicle rocking. Changing lanes requires the upmost care when merging, so as not to cause too much movement, otherwise the entire vehicle rocks back & forth as though you were off-roading on extremely uneven turf. God forbid you attempt to avoid hitting something that jumps in front of you car; that is bound to cause the car to flip! Doesnt matter if you're traveling 5mph or 65 mph, the drifting is obvious & pretty scary.

The steering is loose and the vehicle drifts while driving. We cannot maintain straight driving without continuous movement of the steering wheel. The vehicle feels unsafe at all speeds. This vehicle is probably maintained with routine tire rotation. Front passenger tire has had excessive wear. All wheels and tires have been changed with no result.

Over the last 7+ months, my vehicle will not go into gear. When I push the starter, the vehilce flashes a number of warning lights and codes then the service shifter warning comes on and stays on. The vehicle will then not go into gear. The dealership has now looked at it 3 times and can not find the issue. They can see the code, have replaced the auxillary battery and traced the wiring. This happens approximately 3 times a week. It leaves me stranded where ever I am because it will not go into gear and has to be towed. A few hours later, it will start as normal. On other occassions, it does the same thing to me while I am driving! All of the warning indicators will flash and I will lose power steering. If I pull the car over and turn it off and on again, I gain power steering back. This has happened to me while driving on the highway. The first time I was on a 4 lane highway with no power steering. I can send a video link if provided an email address

Intermittent loss of power steering and throttle. Gears lock and do not shift. Every code is flashing on dash, ABS, shifter, traction control, air bags.

steering locked while driving at 50 mph. Had to switch car off in middle of street and restart to get functioning steering restored. Five minutes later it locked steering wheel again and could not shift lanes. Luckily accident was avoided however I can't imagine what would have happened if this was on the highway. Parked car and towed to Jeep dealership for service. My wife and family were terrified of this incident as it was life threatening situation. Dealer informed me that they have never had this happen before and they are troubleshooting as we speak. Service engine light went on (yellow) and "service shifter" code showed up on screen. This all was sudden and there was no warning before driving vehicle.

My 2019 Jeep Wrangler shakes consistently. The shaking is getting worst and unmanageable, it even shakes when hitting a small pothole on the street. It shakes when driving at a low speed and when driving at high speed. From the passenger side, you actually sense the wobbling motion. I took it to the dealership to get it fixed and they said that they did fix it but the problem came back about six months after they supposedly fixed the steering rack. I took it again to the dealership but they said that the vehicle did not have any recalls and the issue was something else. The problem is getting worst and I am scared of causing an accident because that piece of the car it feels like is going to break.

Electrical issue resulting in loss of power steering, speedometer, gas gauge etc. all warning lights come on including ABS BRAKES, VEHICLE TRACTION CONTROL, AUTOMATIC START, CHECK ENGINE, 4WD, BRAKE LIGHT. car will not turn off when lights are on. Repeat problem despite being in dealership 3times.

2019 Jeep Wrangler Sahara numerous fault vehicle slows down speedometer loss abs brake warning ,4 wheel drive service warning, blind spot warning, complete loss of power while driving. Taken to the Jeep dealer was told no fault codes available come get it. So making preparation to pick up vehicle finally dealer service reported that vehicle faulted with those code. I had the vehicle towed prior to service due to the transmission not being able to shift into any gear. There are several reports online with same problem total electrical system failure. Keep n mind vehicle has approximately 7500 miles. Vehicle currently under what they call Star service because Dealer has no idea to fix it.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving approximately 70 MPH and going over a bump in the roadway, the steering wheel was shaking. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the steering damper needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified but no additional assistance was provided. The approximate failure mileage was 23,000.

Mileage: 23,000

Took to the dealership for a few problems and one of them was loose or wandering steering, while warranty was still covered 3/36. Dealer stated "thats how a jeep drives" and did fix the other issues i also brought it in for. Only a few years later just after i cross 40,000 miles, I decide to plan a road trip but dont want the hassle of constant steering corrections on the trip. I notice while seaching the internet for aftermarket steering fixes that Jeep had a TSB for the exact same issue I have and others who were still under warranty were getting the new sterring components and loving their Jeep! I am still frustrated that the dealer says its no longer covered for me even though all the new models have the new steering components now. The TSB should have been communicated to owners to be able to safely handle their Jeep at highway speeds even in windy conditions. Instead I just dont drive it most of the time.

2019 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited---while driving the vehicle on a city street, without any warning, all of the dash lights and any/all warnings lights started to flash. Within 200 feet of this occurring, the vehicle lost power, including ability to control the steering, and the car came to an immediate stop. During this shut down instance, I was able to vigorously hold the steering wheel to guide the car to the side of the road, avoiding the traffic that came. After the car shut down, the dash lights and windshield wipers were still going off. It still had electrical power. It would not start back up. I had to have it towed to the dealership. It is currently being looked at by the local dealership. 05-29-22

Every warning light, check engine, brake, traction control, service shifter, service electronic throttle system, etc. would come on all at once. While driving the power steering stopped working when all these warnings appeared yet the vehicle was still under power.

When driving on a highway at speeds above 50 mph, i hit a bump in the road and my front end started to shake violently and also caused my steering wheel to bounce around. As i slowed down the bouncing reduced but it did not stop completely until i came to a complete stop off to the side of the road. There is a customer satisfaction notice out for a steering damper that i am having scheduled, but this seems like it should be a safety issue and a recall.

“Death wobble” or uncontrolled front steering vibration and violent shaking. Steering gear box was replaced at 12,000 miles. Replacement gear box seemed to be ok for about 15,000miles. At about 17000 miles(29,000 total vehicle miles) the vehicle experienced a violent shaking when on a freeway and going over a bridge overpass bump at about 75-80mph. The shaking would not stop until braking occurred nearly causing a rear end collision from car behind. Dealer has not been able to recreate the wobble in part because they will not drive over 70mph(the local freeway speed limit). The steering gear box “fix” for this problem was clearly not a robust corrective measure if death wobble reappears at 15000 miles.

Very loose feeling steering wheel when driving at speeds over 50mph

Experienced the death wobble. Front tires began to oscillate violently causing loss of steering control on a highway. Went on for ~20 seconds, almost ran off the road and would have crashed. No indications prior to event, smooth highway speed driving right up to extreme violent shaking. Fighting with the wheel to steer to stay on the road was ineffective. The only thing that saved us was it suddenly stopped on its own. Before this event there were several short, less severe instances of wobbling.

Vehicle has been leading to the right since I bought the vehicle. It is now very worse, and has cause a near miss collision with right side object. There is now severe drifting to the right, the original dealer has denied the issue since day one. Now it has been confirmed by another dealer that the steering gear box needs to be replaced by the new steel product steering gear box.

When driving at a speed of 60 or higher the Steering wheel of the jeep begins to shake or shimmy. When driving on the highway I have to slow down well below the speed limit to get the shaking to stop. I’ve taken it to a independent Jeep repair shop and they have confirmed the steering wheel shakes.

While driving on the highway out of the blue my jeep starts to shake and vibrate. It happens without warning a makes it hard to control steering.

When on the highway going over 55 MPH and hitting a bump the steering wheel and entire vehicle begins to move rapidly and violently from side to side. This causes your vehicle to feel like it's losing control. The only way to stop this from continuing is to slow the vehicle down significantly. This presents a significant danger of losing control because of the shaking or being hit from behind on the highway due to slowing down significantly. The dealer has attempted to repair this defect twice within the last 2 months by replacing the steering damper and it is still occurring. No warning messages are illuminated when this occurs.

My Jeep wanders tremendously, at times it’s hard to keep it on the road. And sometimes it will veer to the left or right unexpectedly. I’ve almost hit two incoming cars because of this. This problem needs to be fixed on this model vehicle immediately or someone is going to get hurt or killed. Sometimes if you hit a bump the steering will vibrate tremendously until you come to a stop. There’s no way to control the vehicle when this happens.

Vehicle engine light came on and then gave me a service shifter alarm error. With the error I lost power steering traveling thru the mountains on the interstate in the snow. The dash lights started flickering followed by numerous fault codes.

purchased vehicle in sept 2019 and had no issues until recently. Hitting bumps on freeway causes extreme shaking which lasts upwards of 6 to 10 seconds. Having this occur on icy roads can result in total loss of stability. I've taken this into the dealership already once, and issue still occurs. From research it looks like this issue has been present in jeeps for decades. Why hasn't the NHTSA forced jeep to notify the public of the issue?

While in 38 degree weather, the steering wheel locked up when turning to the left. Turning to the right was unaffected. This occurred immediately after engine start. I used a far larger amount of force than usual to push the steering wheel in an attempt to get it to unlock. This eventually did work, but every time I tried to turn to the left, the steering wheel felt like it was catching on something and required more force than I was accustomed to. This continued to happen though it eased as the drive went on and the car warmed up. The next day at around 35 degree weather the same thing occurred though not as bad as that first instance. It kept feeling stuck when turning left and the more I pushed it the more it eased. This did not happen over the summer when the temperature was repeatedly over 60 degrees. The binding occurred at both high and low speed.

at 70mph or higher driving over rough highway transition joints will cause steering wheel and entire car to shake violently until slowing down to 60 mph

While driving with traffic at highway speeds, bumps in the road surface cause the Front End of my 2019 JEEP WRANGLER to bounce violently and I have to reduce the speed to around 45 MPH to have the suspension return to normal. I have brought the vehicle to Golling Jeep Dealership 3 times. They replaced the Steering Damper in May of 2021which temporarily resolved the issue. I brought the car back in August and September where the dealership reports they could not duplicate the failure. In a recent Detroit Free Press Article, this condition was called an "Alleged Death Wobble". Golling tells me there is nothing wrong. There was no accident, no known damage and there was no warning of any kind. I just watch for bumps and drive slower - not with the speed of traffic on I 696 in Oakland County Michigan. I believe this is Unsafe and I told Golling's Service team the same. What Can I do? [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Subsequent to my yearly annual service which included a tire rotation, my 2019 Jeep Wrangler Sport developed the "Jeep Death Wobble". At speeds in excess of 60 mph and with a certain series of road bumps, the Jeep begins to violently wobble until speed is reduced to approximately 58mph.

Loss of some electrical power, including power steering; Check engine light, other warnings are triggered. Can Bus error. Engine fails to turn off. Gear-shift problems. Happens repeatedly

I own a 2019 Jeep Rubicon and the steering wheel rotates violently (~25° back and forth) while driving at any speed and when I hit a bump on the road. Even a small bump on the road causes this problem. I have researched this and some Jeep websites call it a ‘death wobble’. 25° violent steering wheel rotation at 70 mph is very startling it is an extremely unsafe. It almost caused me to crash on more than 3 occasions. There are no apparent recalls about this issue but this problem is reported on several Jeep websites. Are there any plans to implement any sort of safety warning or a recall about this problem? Thank you and please keep me posted.

It moves from one side to the other in the lane, its not easy to control. you need to drive with both hands all the time and be extra careful you don't enter a different lane. it;'s happen several times. it doesn't feel safe and looks like i'm not the only one.

The check engine light came on one evening. The next morning during driving the dashboard flashed a "Service Shifter" warning. Then a series of other warnings all light up. The dashboard flashed like it was malfunctioning. The Jeep lost power steering and stuck in the current gear I was in. The vehicle had to be towed to the dealership. They have had it now for four days. And, they have no idea what's wrong with it.

The steering on JL 2019 has been a problem from the start. The steering wheel damper was replaced and the steering is still a problem. There is too much play in the steering which has been the cause of several potential accidents especially at highway speeds.

Steering has gotten extremely sloppy and pulls. Took it to get an alignment and it turns out the steering box is the culprit. There seeks to be many issues with this. Needs to be recalled. Could cause an accident

WHEN DRIVING 70 MILES AN HOUR AND HIT A BRIDGE SEAM WHICH INTERSECT THE HIGHWAY AT 45 DEGREE ANGLE THE CAR GOES INTO A VIOLENT DEATH WOBBLE. WE HAVE HAD 2 JEEP SERVICE DEPARTMENTS LOOK AT THE ISSUE STATING NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. WE ARE STILL EXPERIENCING THIS DEATH WOBBLE

WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY MY DASH LIGHTS AND INFO DISPLAY START RUNNING A SEQUENCE THAT GOES THROUGH A MULTITUDE OF WARNINGS AND SERVICE CHECKS ON THE VEHICLES SYSTEMS, I LOSE POWER STEERING FOR A BIT THEN LIGHTS GO OUT, BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ESS STAY ON. WHEN REMOTE STARTING MY JEEP THE SAME THING KIND OF HAPPENS ONLY THE WARNING LIGHTS DO NOT GO OUT QUICKLY AND I CANNOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, AFTER SOME TIME USUALLY A 1/2 TO A FULL DAY OF WAITING THE LIGHTS GO OUT EXECEPT FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ESS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THAT I BOUGHT IT FROM AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A LOOSE NEGITIVE BATTERY TERMINAL CONNECTION, ABOUT THREE MILES DOWN THE ROAD IT DID THE LIGHTS AND STEERING THING AGAIN.

I HAVE HAD DEATH WOBBLE 3 DIFFERENT TIMES ON MY 2019 JEEP WRANGLER THE DEALER SUPPOSEDLY FIX IT, BUT I EXPERIENCED IT AGAIN AFTER FIX. IT HAPPENS WHEN U ARE TRAVELING AT HIGHER SPEEDS AND HIT SOMETHING IN THE ROAD LIKE A HOLE THE STEERING WHEEL OSCILLATES VIOLENTLY

I HAVE NOTICED AT HIGH SPEEDS WHEN I AM DRIVING AND I GO OVER A POT HOLE OR EVEN WHEN I GO OVER A RUMBLE STRIP I GET AN AGGRESSIVE STEERING WHEEL SHAKE. ANOTHER ISSUE WOULD BE THE PASSENGER VISOR IT BROKE WHEN MY VEHICLE ONLY HAD 36,600K MILES. I HARDLY USE THE VISOR ONE DAY MY PASSENGER OUT THE VISOR DOWN TO COVER THE SUN FROM FACE AND IT JUST FELL FROM THE CORNER.

I OWN A 2018 AND 2019 JEEP WRANGLER. I DRIVE BOTH OF THESE VEHICLES ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN YOUR DRIVING THESE JEEPS WHEN YOU HIT A BIT YOU LOSE CONTROL OF THE STEERING.

MY 2019 RUBICON FROM DAY 1 HAS HAD A DANGEROUS WANDERING ISSUE. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO KEEP THE VEHICLE ON A STRAIGHT TRACK AND SOMETIMES TO EVEN STAY IN YOUR LANE. IT IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS ON THE HIGHWAY IN WINDY CONDITIONS. WRANGLER STYLE JEEPS ARE KNOWN FOR CATCHING THE WIND HOWEVER, WITH THE WANDERING PROBLEM IN THE STEERING YOU TEND TO OVERSTEER TO COMPENSATE MAKING THE VEHICLE VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. I COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS THE FIRST DAY I BOUGHT IT NEW AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS HOW JEEPS ARE. I KNOW HOW ALL VEHICLES ARE AND WHERE THEY CROSS THE LINE WITH A SAFETY ISSUE. IF YOU GO ON LINE AND PUNCH IN JEEP WANDERING ISSUES THERE ARE LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF POST ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND IT APPEARS THAT JEEP JUST IGNORES THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I WOULDN'T BE TAKING THE TIME TO WRITE THIS IF IT WERE JUST AN INCONVENIENCE. THIS IS A SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM. MY WIFE HAS A 2019 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND IT RIDES LIKE A LUXURY CAR. SHE WON;T EVEN DRIVE MY RUBICON BECAUSE SHE IS SO SCARED OF HOW IT WANDERS. THE STEERING WHEEL HAS TO BE CONSTANTLY COMPENSATED BACK AND FORTH TO KEEP IT IN LINE. SO MUCH SO THAT I WORRY SOME TIMES THAT IF THERE WERE A COP IN BACK OF ME THAT HE WOULD THINK I WAS IMPAIRED THE WAY THE VEHICLE IS ALWAYS BACK AND FORTH. I BOUGHT MY 4 DOOR 2019 RUBICON BRAND NEW AND IT ONLY HAS 21,000 MILES ON IT NOW. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO BE AFRAID TO DRIVE A BRAND NEW VEHICLE WITH A SAFETY ISSUE LIKE THIS AND JEEP SHOULD HAVE FIXED THIS OBVIOUS ISSUE AND NOT BE IGNORING IT. LETS NOT WAIT TILL SOMEONE GETS KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. FROM THE RESEARCH I HAVE DONE AND HUNDREDS OF POST I HAVE READ IT APPEARS THIS PROBLEM IS LIMITED TO WRANGLER MODEL JEEPS. PLEASE HELP!!

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY BETWEEN 65/70 MPH ON A STRAIGHT AWAY. I HIT A BUMP/POTHOLE IN THE ROAD. MY JEEP BEGAN TO WOBBLE, RATTLE AND SHAKE CAUSING THE STEERING WHEEL TO STUTTER IN MY HANDS. I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO CRASH! I LET OFF THE GAS AND SLOWLY APPLIED THE BRAKES WHILE MAKING MY WAY TO THE SHOULDER AWAY FROM TRAFFIC. I HAD TO COM TO A COMPLETE STOP FOR IT TO STOP SHAKING.

SIMILAR TO WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE A TIRE BLOWOUT. THE STEERING WHEEL SHOOK CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL. LET OFF THE GAS AND SLOWLY APPLIED THE BRAKE. AT 50 MPH REGAINED CONTROL AND CONTINUED ON OUR WAY. MY CELLPHONE WAS NOT SHOOK OUT OF ITS HOLDER LIKE LAST TIME. SO I GUESS THAT'S A PLUS.

AS I AM DRIVING AT A NORMAL SPEED ALL OF A SUDDEN MY 2019 JEEP WRANGLER WILL BEGIN TO SHUDDER BACK AND FORTH FIERCELY. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED ON JANUARY 4, I THOUGHT I HAD A LOOSE AIR FLAT TIRE. I STOPPED IN THE BREAKDOWN LANE, GOT OUT AND CHECKED BUT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. WHEN I BEGAN DRIVING AGAIN, THE CAR DROVE FINE. THE NEXT MORNING ON JANUARY 5, THE CAR DID THE SAME THING IN ALMOST THE SAME ARE WHERE RI 95 CUTS OFF TO RI295. THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED SHAKING FOR A GOOD 50-100 FEET BEFORE IT STOPPED. I WAS ALONE BOTH TIMES. THE 3RD TIME, I WAS TAKING MY 29 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER TO THE DOCTORS IN WAKEFIELD, RI AND TRAVELING ON RT 1. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE STARTED SHAKING, IT REALLY SCARED MY DAUGHTER WHO INSISTED WE DRIVE RIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP AFTER HER APPOINTMENT. AFTER HER APPOINTMENT AND ON THE WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP, IT HAPPENED ONE MORE TIME. I WALKED INTO THE DEALERSHIP AT PAUL BAILEY'S IN NORTH KINGSTOWN. THIS IS WHERE I ALWAYS GO FOR MY SERVICE ON ALL MY JEEPS. THEY WERE PLEASANT WAS ALWAYS AND I TOLD THEM IN HAD WHAT I THOUGHT WAS THE DEATH RATTLE AND HE CORRECTED ME AND SAID DID I MEAN THE DEATH WOBBLE? I MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO GO BACK JANUARY 18 TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT MY CAR. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS MAY BE HAPPENING WITH ALL CARS AND MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I ONLY HAVE 18000 MILES ON THE CAR, IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY.

I RECENTLY EXPERIENCED AN UNSAFE AND UNEASY STEERING ISSUE ON MY RECENT ROAD TRIP ON MY 35,000 MILE JEEP (STOCK). PING PONGING IN BETWEEN LANES AND HAVING CLOSE CALLS WITH OTHERS ON THE ROAD BECAUSE OF THE WANDERING AND SLIGHT PULL THE JEEP HAS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHICH CAN BE ANYWHERE FROM 45MPH-70MPH.

I HAD TO PULL WITH BOTH HANDS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE STEERING WHEEL TO MAKE THE TURN ON THE BEND. AFTER PULLING HARD I WAS ABLE TO MAKE THE TURN ON THE BEND. IT WAS A CLOSE CALL TO CRASHING INTO A CORN FIELD IF I WASN'T ABLE TO MAKE THIS BEND IN THE ROAD.

THE FRONT WHEELS STARTED SHAKING UNCONTROLLABLY UNTIL I CAME TO A FULL STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. VERY DANGEROUS SAFETY CONCERN, ESPECIALLY ON A CAR THAT HAS NOT BEEN OFF-ROAD AND WITH LESS THAN 18000 MILES AND NO MODIFICATIONS. THIS ISSUE IS VERY WELL DOCUMENTED ALL OVER THE INTERNET.

WHEN ON THE HIGHWAY, IT STARTING SHAKING VIGOROUSLY. I HAD TO SLOW DOWN TO STOP IT FROM SHAKING. I WENT FROM ABOUT 70 MPH TO ABOUT 35 MPH IN ORDER TO STOP IT FROM SHAKING. I TRIED LOOKING UP WHAT IT COULD BE AND FOUND THAT IT'S BEEN CALLED THE "DEATH WOBBLE." I'VE ALSO CHECKED IT FOR RECALLS AND NOTHING CAME UP AT THIS TIME. I TRIED CALLING FCA, HOWEVER AFTER BEING ON HOLD FOR MORE THAN 2 HOURS, I HANGED UP. I HOPE YOU GUYS CAN HELP WITH ANSWERS ON THIS AS IT SEEMS THAT I'M NOT THE FIRST ONE TO EXPERIENCE THIS. THANK YOU.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE JEEP BEGAN TO SHAKE (WABBLE) VIOLENTLY. THE STEERING COLUMN BECAME HARD TO CONTROL DUE TO THE SHAKING OF THE JEEP. SLOWING DOWN DID NOT SEEM TO HELP SO I PULLED OFF THE FREEWAY AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THIS ALLEVIATED THE ISSUE TEMPORARILY. HOWEVER, THE SHAKING/WABBLE OCCURRED 6 MORE TIMES DURING MY 200-MILE TRIP. I TOOK MY JEEP INTO THE DEALER TO GET FIXED AND WAITED 3 WEEKS FOR THE PART TO COME IN. DURING THIS TIME, THE WABBLE HAPPENED TWICE AT FREEWAY SPEEDS (65 MPH+). BOTH TIMES, I HAD TO PULL OFF THE FREEWAY AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP TO REMEDY THE ISSUE. MY SERVICING DEALER REPLACED THE STEERING DAMPENER AS THEY SAID THAT WAS THE ISSUE. UNFORTUNATELY, AT FREEWAY SPEED, I ENCOUNTERED THE SHAKING/WABBLE AGAIN. SPEEDS OF 50 MPH OR LESS DO NOT SEEM TO TRIGGER THE SHAKING, BUT IT OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY AT SPEEDS OVER 50 MPH. AS LONG AS I AM IN THE SLOW LANE WITH ROOM TO EXIT THE ROAD, IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE. HOWEVER, IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE IF THERE IS NO WAY TO EXIT THE ROADWAY WHEN IT OCCURS AS THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE SHAKING IS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP.

THERE IS PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL ESPECIALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (ABOVE 60 MPH) AND THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. IT WAS ALWAYS LOSE BUT THE SEVERITY WAS NOTICED ON A 1200 MILE ROAD TRIP AND CONTINUES TO BE AN ISSUE. THIS ISSUE CAUSES THE DRIVER TO CONSTANTLY ADJUST THE STEERING WHEEL AND FEELS LIKE YOU DO NOT HAVE COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. ALONG WITH THE CONSTANT ADJUSTING, IN ORDER TO GO STRAIGHT THE STEERING WHEEL IS ABOUT A DEGREE OFF FROM CENTER. THIS LOSE STEERING MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO STAY IN THE LANES WHILE DRIVING AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD THAT NEEDS FIXED AND A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED.

JEEP HAS ISSUED A TSB 08-074-20 FOR A STEEL STEERING GEAR (REPLACING STOCK ALUMINUM PART). BECAUSE IT IS A TSB AND NOT A RECALL, THERE IS TOO MUCH SUBJECTIVITY IN DEFINING "LOOSE STEERING". ALSO, BECAUSE ALL 2018 AND 2019 JEEP WRANGLERS HAVE THIS ALUMINUM GEAR THE DEALER CAN SIMPLY SAY "THEY ALL DRIVE LIKE THIS". SOME JEEP OWNERS ARE GETTING HELP FROM THEIR DEALERS, BUT MANY MANY OTHERS ARE NOT. THIS TSB NEEDS TO BE CONVERTED INTO A RECALL ASAP!

LOOSE AND WANDERING STEERING. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW IN JANUARY 2019, IT CURRENTLY HAS 5,039 MILES. SINCE NEW, THE STEERING HAS BEEN LOOSE AND WANDERS AROUND THE LANE OF TRAVEL AT SPEEDS OVER ABOUT 30 MPH ON PAVED, WELL MAINTAINED HIGHWAYS. IF YOU TAKE YOUR EYES OFF THE ROAD TO CHECK GAUGES OR CONTROLS, YOU HAVE TO QUICKLY MAKE AN ADJUSTMENT TO KEEP IT CENTERED IN THE LANE. IT HAS LOW MILEAGE IN THE 18 MONTHS OF OUR OWNERSHIP BECAUSE WE ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. WE WANT TO AVOID A CRASH AND INJURIES AT ALL COST. THE STEERING WHEEL CAN BE TURNED EITHER DIRECTION FOR SEVERAL DEGREES WITHOUT RESPONSE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I REPORTED THIS ISSUE TO MY DEALERS AND THEY HAVE MADE THREE DIFFERENT ATTEMPTS TO CORRECT THE ISSUE, BUT THEY ARE UNABLE TO BASED ON THE DESIGN. THE LAST ATTEMPT, THEY ADVISED THEY HAD SPOKEN TO THEIR AREA JEEP/FCA REPRESENTATIVE AND WERE ADVISED THAT JEEP IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND A CORRECTION WILL BE COMING IN THE NEAR FUTURE. THE ASKED ME TO BE PATIENT. THAT WAS OVER ONE YEAR AGO AND STILL NO CORRECTION. I'M SURE THIS ISSUE HAS LIKELY CAUSED MANY PREVENTABLE CRASHES AND INJURIES AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO UNTIL IT IS RESOLVED BY THE MANUFACTURER. IT'S TIME FOR NHTSA INFLUENCE.

THIS JEEP HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER 4 TIMES PREVIOUSLY FOR A SIMILAR ISSUE. THIS INCIDENT, WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH ALL THE INSTRUMENTS STARTED GOING CRAZY (PREVIOUSLY HAPPENED MANY TIMES). SHORTLY THEREAFTER THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. THE POWER STEERING WAS STILL WORKING, BUT THE WHEEL WOULD ONLY TURN AROUND 1 INCH IN EITHER DIRECTION. BRAKING WAS NORMAL. MANEUVERED THE JEEP OFF THE ROAD AND HAD TOWED TO RON CARTER CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE DEALERSHIP IN LEAGUE CITY, TX. THE DEALERSHIP HAS HAD THIS VEHICLE 4 TIMES IN THE PAST FOR THIS ISSUE. IN THE PAST THE STEERING HAS NOT BEEN AFFECTED, BUT THE VEHICLE WON'T START OR THE PARKING BRAKE WILL BE SET AND YOU CAN'T MOVE OR OTHER WEIRD DIFFERENT STUFF HAPPENS. THE STEERING ISSUE IN THIS PAST INCIDENT IS SERIOUS. WHEN THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER INQUIRED WHAT HAPPENED HE TOLD ME HE HAS TOWED PROBABLY 20 OTHER NEWER JEEP WRANGLERS WITH SIMILAR ISSUES. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME LAST TIME WE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN AND IT WAS STILL ACTING UP THAT THERE WERE 15 FAULTS STORED. THE ISSUE USUALLY CLEARS ITSELF UP BY THE TIME WE GET IT TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER CLAIMS THEY HAVE TALKED WITH CHRYSLER AND CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHATS WRONG AND HAVE JUST BEEN THROWING DARTS REPLACING VARIOUS THINGS. IF THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER IS RIGHT ON HOW MANY VEHICLES HES TOWED WITH THIS PROBLEM THERE IS A SERIOUS ELECTRICAL / COMPUTER ISSUE GOING ON WITH THESE VEHICLES THAT IS GOING TO CAUSE ACCIDENTS.

Mileage: 5,000

LOOSE STEERING HAS CAUSED SEVERAL 'NEAR MISSES' WHEN TAKING CURVES, ESPECIALLY AT SPEEDS ABOVE 40MPH. THE STEERING WHEEL IS VERY LOOSE OVERALL, BUT IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

Mileage: 200

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 75 MPH THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. HAD TO SLOW DOWN TO ABOUT 30 MPH TO GET VEHICLE UNDER CONTROL. VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN LESS THAN 4,000 MILES.

Mileage: 3,500

MY JEEP HAS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THE VEHICLE HAS TO MUCH PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL. BECAUSE OF THIS, THE VEHICLE WANDERS BACK AND FORTH IN THE ROAD.TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM YOU HAVE TO CONSTANTLY TURN THE WHEEL BACK AND FORTH. THE PROBLEM IS EXACERBATED WITH SPEED, SO AT HIGHWAY IT IS SO UNSAFE, YOU FELL LIKE YOU ARE GOING TO DIE.THE VEHICLE HAS SERIOUS STEERING BOX ISSUE. THE VEHICLE IS SO UNSAFE I WILL NOT LET ANYONE DRIVE THIS VEHICLE.

2019 JEEP WRANGLER JL SPORT-STEERING ISSUES I HAVE HAD MY 2019 JL A LITTLE OVER A YEAR NOW AND HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING CONCERNS WITH THE STEERING SINCE I DROVE IT HOME. BEING A FIRST TIME JEEP OWNER, INITIALLY I THOUGHT MAYBE THAT WAS JUST THE WAY IT WAS SUPPOSED TO DRIVE. AFTER A FEW MONTHS, IT JUST DIDN'T SEEM RIGHT TO ME THAT A BRAND NEW JEEP COULD BE THIS SLOPPY IN THE STEERING. THERE IS A TON OF PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL WHICH MEANS CONSTANTLY OVER-CORRECTING TO STAY IN A LANE. IT IS NOTICEABLE AT ALL SPEEDS BUT EVEN MORE SO AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I FIND THAT I CANNOT TAKE ONE HAND OFF THE WHEEL AT ANYTIME WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE IT CAN WANDER. THIS IS AN EXHAUSTING WAY TO DRIVE NOT TO MENTION THE CONSTANT BUMP STEER THAT HAPPENS WHEN GOING OVER ANY MINOR BUMP OR HIGHWAY OVERPASS. IT'S NERVE WRACKING DRIVING IN TIGHT LANES ON THE HIGHWAY AND ESPECIALLY IN CONSTRUCTION ZONES. IT'S TO THE POINT THAT I HONESTLY DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT AND NEITHER DOES MY BOYFRIEND. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS UP NOW AT TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS FOR A TOTAL OF 5-6 TIMES. THE MOST RECENT RESPONSE WAS, "THAT'S JUST THE NATURE OF THE BEAST". I'M SORRY BUT THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. THE FIRST DEALERSHIP PUT MY DAMPER RECALL PART IN UPSIDE DOWN AND SO I DROVE ON AN UPSIDE DOWN PART FOR 5 MONTHS BEFORE I EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE ON THE HIGHWAY. AFTER THAT INCIDENT I TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP WHO PUT IN A NEW DAMPER THE CORRECT WAY BUT STILL EXTREME LOOSENESS IN THE WHEEL AND WANDERING ALL OVER THE ROAD. THE MOST FRUSTRATING THING IS THAT THE DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE JEEP AND IT'S SAFE TO DRIVE YET THERE ARE 1,000'S OF REPORTS HAVING THE SAME STEERING ISSUES AS ME. THIS IS MY SECOND TIME OPENING A CASE WITH JEEP CARE HOWEVER I'M NOT HOPEFUL THAT THEY WILL HELP AT ALL.

PURCHASED A NEW JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA UNLIMITED 6/22/2020 WITH 340 MILES. THE STEERING IS VERY LOOSE, 1 1/2-2" OF FREE PLAY IN STEERING WHEEL, NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP THE VEHICLE IN THE LANE, THE LOOSENESS IS NOTICEABLE AT ALL SPEEDS, BUT BECOMES HARDER TO CONTROL AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I HAVE BEEN IN THE NEW CAR BUSINESS FOR 34 YEARS AS A SERVICE MANAGER, 6 YEARS WITH JEEP, AND THE STEERING GEAR HAS SLACK IN IT. THE JEEP WAS SCHEDULED TO BE REPAIRED 6/7/20, AFTER BEING AT THE DEALERSHIP ALL DAY, IT WAS DELIVERED BACK TO ME, AND TOLD IT WAS NORMAL AND "JEEP LIKE". I SHOWED THEM A VIDEO OF ME DRIVING AT 55 MPH AND MOVING THE STEERING WHEEL SIDE TO SIDE 2" WITH THE JEEP STAYING IN A STRAIGHT LINE, UNSAFE AND UNACCEPTABLE, I COMMUTE 110 MILES A DAY IN THIS VEHICLE.

Mileage: 375

THIS VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT USED ON 5/17 IT WAS THE DEALERSHIPS RENTAL BEFORE.DRIVING FOR THE FIRST TIME ON THE HIGHWAY ON 6/19 AT HIGHWAY SPEED VEHICLE HAD SUDDEN DEATH WOBBLE IT WAS SCARY FEELING THE WHOLE FRONT END OF THE JEEP SHAKE SIDE TO SIDE. MADE IT HOME SAFELY AND SAW THE V41 RECALL WAS INSTALLED INCORRECTLY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ONCE THEY WERE OPEN ON 6/22 AND WAS TOLD IT WAS DEATH WOBBLE AND GIVEN A RENTAL CAR. ON 6/24 I WAS TOLD THE PART NEEDED IS ON BACKORDER. INCLUDING A PICTURE SHOWING THE PART WAS INSTALLED WRONG . THEY ALSO SAID IT WAS INSTALLED ON 9/19 WHEN THE UPDATED INSTRUCTIONS WERE SENT OUT ON. 6/19 AND CLEARLY MANAGED TO INSTALL INCORRECTLY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE STEERING DAMPER FIX IS JUST THAT A BANDAID NOT A ACTUAL FIX AT ALL SINCE THERE ARE REPORTS OF IT HAPPENING AFTER IT'S INSTALLED . MY JEEP IS ALL STOCK. *TR

WE PURCHASED OUR 2019 JEEP WRANGLER IN MAY 2020. WE NOTICED AN ISSUE WITH THE STEERING BEING VERY "LOOSE" WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS IN CITY AND ON THE HIGHWAY. A SLIGHT CORRECTION TO THE WHEEL MAKES A HUGE DIRECTIONAL CHANGE WHILE DRIVING. THE JEEP SEEMS TO HAVE A MIND OF ITS OWN. WE MENTIONED THIS TO THE DEALERSHIP A WEEK AFTER PURCHASING THE JEEP AND WAS GIVEN THE EXPLANATION THAT IT IS A JEEP AND MADE FOR OFF-ROADING...IF THEY LOOK AT IT (UNDER WARRANTY) WE WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A DIAGNOSTIC CHARGE. SINCE THEN WE HAVE DONE SOME INVESTIGATING AND FOUND EXACTLY THE SAME COMPLAINTS AS WE ARE EXPERIENCING. THE JEEP IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND A SOLUTION NEEDS TO BE FOUND BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT AND/OR DIES.

VEHICLE WANDERS INSIDE OF LANE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. CONSTANTLY NEEDS REDIRECTING OF STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP DIRECTION STRAIGHT. STEERING FEELS LOOSE. DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT THIS IS THE WAY IT IS WITH JEEP WRANGLERS. FEELS UNSAFE. *TR

Mileage: 150

WE STARTED OUT OUR ISSUES WITH THE JEEP ABOUT A MONTH AFTER WE GOT IT. THE STEERING STABILIZER HAD A RECALL AND WE HAD MULTIPLE TIMES THAT THE STEERING WENT INTO A WOBBLE. AFTER THE STABILIZER WAS REPLACED TWO TIMES, THAT PROBLEM SEEMED TO HAVE WENT AWAY. OUR NEXT PROBLEM STARTED ON OUR WAY HOME. IT NOW DRIFTS ALL OVER THE ROAD, WE ARE CONSTANTLY HAVING TO COUNTER ACT THE MOVEMENT. *TR

STEERING IS VERY LOOSE. JEEP WANDERS ON ROAD REQUIRING CONSTANT STEERING CORRECTIONS. WHEN DRIVING AS LOWER SPEEDS ON BACK ROADS, KEEPING THE JEEP IN PROPER LANE BECOMES A CHORE. I HAVE TAKEN THE JEEP TO KELLER BROTHERS JEEP IN LITITZ, PA TWICE FOR THIS ISSUE AND BOTH TIMES HAVE BEEN TOLD THEY FEEL THE ISSUE WHEN TAKING THE JEEP ON A TEST DRIVE BUT JEEP HAS NO TSB OR RECALL FOR THE ISSUE THEREFORE THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO FIX THE ISSUE. *TR

Mileage: 22

DURING LOW SPEED AND HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE STEERING FEELS LOOSE. IT WILL NOT TRACK STRAIGHT AND HAS A TENDENCY TO "ROAD WALK" CAUSING THE DRIVER TO CONTINUALLY MONITOR AND CORRECT THE PATH OF THE JEEP. HE JEEP WILL SUDDENLY CHANGE DIRECTION WHEN THE ROAD SURFACE CHANGES PITCH CAUSING THE JEEP TO QUICKLY VEER TO THE NEXT LANE OR GUARD RAIL. THERE APPEARS TO BE A DEAD SPOT IN THE STEERING OF ABOUT 3 INCHES FROM RIGHT TO LEFT. ON LEVEL SURFACE THE VEHICLE REQUIRES CONSTANT PATH CORRECTIONS. *TR

Mileage: 20,000

SIMPLY PUT 'SCARY' DEAD ZONE IN THE STEERING. STEERING WON'T RESPOND FOR ABOUT 2-3 INCHES AND REQUIRES CONSTANT INPUT AND CORRECTION. THE JEEP CONSTANTLY WONDERS. STEERING FEELS LOOSE. MINIMAL CHANGES IN CONDITIONS OR INPUT MAKE LARGE ADJUSTMENTS THIS CONDITION CERTAINLY WILL EVENTUALLY TURN A CORRECTION INTO AN ACCIDENT OR ROLL OVER. *TR

Mileage: 10

THE STEERING IS EXTREMELY LOOSE AND I FEEL VERY UNSAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE! THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS I NEED AN ALIGNMENT, BUT THE CAR ONLY HAS 12K MILES ON IT. I FEEL THE ISSUE ISN'T BEING ADDRESSED CORRECTLY. WHILE DRIVING ON ANY STREETS AT ANY SPEED THERE IS ABOUT ONE TO TWO INCHES OF PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND IT CAUSES SWAYING. *TR

Mileage: 12,300

STEERING ON ROAD WORSE ON HIGHWAY HAVE TO KEEP BOTH HANDS ON WHEEL DUE TO CAR DRIFTING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT. SCARY! 2. CRUISE CONTROL WON'T ENGAGE, HAVE TO PRESS SETTINGS AGAIN.

THE VEHICLE WANDERS AND DRIFTS WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHER SPEEDS (60 MPH +). IT IS SLOW TO RESPOND TO STEERING INPUTS AND THEN IS QUICK TO OVER-CORRECT. DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE IS NOT ONLY EXHAUSTING IT'S FRIGHTENING. IT TAKES 100% OF YOUR ATTENTION TO JUST KEEP YOUR PLACE IN YOUR LANE. THE JEEP HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP THREE TIMES AND THEY HAVE REPLACED/UPGRADED THE STEERING STABILIZER TWICE WHICH HAD ZERO EFFECT ON ITS DRIVABILITY. THE DEALER ACTS LIKE THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE, FCA IS INVOLVED BUT HASN'T ACCOMPLISHED ANYTHING. THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. *TR

Mileage: 2,300

MY WRANGLER HAS A PULL TO THE RIGHT SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW IN OCTOBER 2019. IT HAS LESS THAN 6000 MILES ON IT AND IS UNMODIFIED. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER 5 TIMES FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE. THEY'VE REPLACE THE FRONT AXEL AND DONE ALIGNMENTS. IT STILL PULLS SLIGHTLY TO THE RIGHT. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID IT'S "A CHARACTERISTIC" OF THE JL WRANGLERS (2018 AND UP), TO PULL TO THE RIGHT. HE CLAIMS THAT THEY ALL PULL TO RIGHT AND IT'S NORMAL FOR THE WRANGLER NOT TO GO IN A STRAIGHT LINE. I WAS TOLD THERE'S NOTHING ELSE TO BE DONE AND THAT I JUST HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT THE CAR WILL NOT GO IN A STRAIGHT LINE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT AT SPEEDS OF 30 MPH OR MORE THE VEHICLE REQUIRES CONSTANT CORRECTION LEFT AND RIGHT OF THE STEERING WHEEL TO STAY IN THE LANE. THIS CONSTANT NEED TO CORRECT THE STEERING TO MAINTAIN YOUR LANE IS A DISTRACTION FROM DRIVING SAFELY AT TIMES.

VEHICLE WANDERS AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME IT IS DRIVEN ON FREEWAYS. REQUIRES CONSTANT STEERING CORRECTIONS IN ATTEMPT TO REMAIN IN ITS OWN LANE. IT IS EXHAUSTING TO DRIVE WITH THIS PROBLEM AND IS VERY DANGEROUS. HAS BEEN TO DEALERS 3 TIMES FOR OVER 9 WEEKS WITH NO RESOLUTION. TYPICAL DEALER RESPONSES INCLUDE, NO PROBLEM FOUND, CANNOT DUPLICATE OR ITS A JEEP THING. *TR

Mileage: 500

WHEN ON FREEWAY AT 60-70 MPH, STEERING WHEEL BEGINS TO VIBRATE VIOLENTLY. ONCE SPEED IS REDUCED, IT STOPS. HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES WITHIN LAST 6 MONTHS, ONCE WHILE BEING TOWED BEHIND MOTORHOME. ALSO DESCRIBED BY MANY OTHERS AS "DEATH WOBBLE". *TR

STEERING TRACKS TO THE RIGHT. IF DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, I WOULD BE OFF THE ROAD IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. CONSTANTLY HAVING TO CORRECT THE STEERING BY HOLDING THE WHEEL AT 11 O'CLOCK. FCA REPLACED THE STABILIZER IN SEPTEMBER 2019. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN DECEMBER 2019 FROM A JEEP DEALERSHIP. THERE A KNOWN PROBLEM, TRIED A "BAND-AID" SOLUTION, AND PASSED ON THE PROBLEMS TO THE NEXT OWNER, ME. THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND THE DEALERSHIP WANTS ME TO PAY A DIAGNOSTIC FEE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT TWICE. BOTH TIMES THE VEHICLE WAS NOT FIXED, NOW THE THIRD TIME, I AM ASKED TO PAY A DIAGNOSTIC FEE TO TRY TO SOLVE A PROBLEM THEY DID NOT FIX TWICE BEFORE. I CONTACTED FCA DIRECTLY AND THEY ARE IN COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE DEALERSHIP FOR ME. I AM FRUSTRATED BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. THIS IS A WELL DOCUMENTED ISSUE WITH JEEP BUT OWNERS ARE BEING DENIED SOLUTIONS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH OVER S SUSPENSION JOINT ON A BRIDGE, THE VEHICLE STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY AND WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL VEHICLE UNTIL THE SPEED DROPPED TO 35 MPH. I HAVE ALREADY HAD THE RECALL DONE TO THE VEHICLE TO REPLACE THE STABILIZER BAR, AND THE PROBLEM IS STILL CONTINUING TO OCCUR ANY TIME I TRAVEL OVER AN EXPANSION JOINT OR EVEN A BUMP IN THE ROADWAY. *TR

LOOSE STEERING, MASSIVE AMOUNT OF PLAY IN THE WHEEL. DIFFICULT TO CONTROL VEHICLE AND KEEP LANE POSITION. EXCESSIVE DRIVER INPUT REQUIRED JUST TO GO STRAIGHT. UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE FASTER YOU GO, THE FASTER IT CAN CHANGE LANES ON YOU. AT 60+ MPH -IF YOU LOOK AWAY FROM THE ROAD FOR 2 SECONDS (CHECKING A SIDE MIRROR, REAR VIEW MIRROR OR INTERSECTION) YOU COULD EASILY BE 4-6FT OVER TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT EVEN WHILE HOLDING THE WHEEL STRAIGHT.*DT CONSUMER STATED STEERING ISSUES HAVE BEEN RECURRING SINCE THE TIME OF PURCHASE.*JB

I HAVE BEEN TO DODGE SEVERAL TIMES FOR THESE ISSUES THEY ALWAYS TELL ME NOTHING WRONG WITH VEHICLE. THE CAR PULLS TO ONE SIDE WHEN DRIVING ITS VERY WOBBLY.

WE PULLED INTO OUR STREET AND THE JEEP WOULD NOT SHIFT GEARS OR TURN OFF THE ENGINE. THIS PUT US IN AN UNSAFE POSITION NOT KNOW IF THE VEHICLE WAS GOING LOOSE CONTROL.

THE VEHICLE HAS HAD A SLIGHT PULL SINCE DRIVING OFF THE LOT, BRAND NEW 37 MILES. IT WANDERS TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD. IF YOU HAVE TO DO A PANIC STEER IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO LOOSE CONTROL AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. I HAVE REQUESTED AN ALIGNMENT AND BALANCE CHECK FROM THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP HAS TOLD ME THIS IS THE NEW 'NORMAL' FOR THE WRANGLERS. I DO NOT THINK IT IS TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR A BRAND NEW, $53,000.00 VEHICLE TO DRIVE IN A STRAIGHT LINE WITHOUT CONSTANT STEERING INPUT OR BE ABLE TO PASS WITHOUT FEAR OF LOOSING CONTROL. ESPECIALLY NEW WITH NOW 1,500 MILES ON IT.

Mileage: 55

THE VEHICLE HAS HAD A SLIGHT PULL TO THE RIGHT SINCE DRIVING OFF THE LOT BRAND NEW. I WAS TOLD TO LET THE SUSPENSION SETTLE BEFORE BRINGING IT FOR AN ALIGNMENT. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES NOW AN HAVE LESS THEN 5000 MILES ON IT. I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THE ALIGNMENT IS WITHIN SPECIFICATIONS AND THAT ALL JEEP WRANGLERS HAVE A PULL TO ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER. THE DEALERSHIP AS TOLD MED THAT IT'S NORMAL FOR A WRANGLER NOT TO GO IN A STRAIGHT LINE AND IN THEIR EXPERIENCE, THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS. I DON'T THINK IT'S TOO MUCH TO ASK THAT A BRAND NEW VEHICLE DRIVE IN A STRAIGHT LINE.

FROM THE FIRST DAY I GOT THE JEEP I FELT THE STEERING WHEEL LOOSE. I NOTIFY THE DEALER AND I HAD TAKEN IT TWICE FOR SERVICE THEY PUT A STEERING DAMPER BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST. WHEN I TOOK IT THE SECOND TIME THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING AND SAID IT WAS A JEEP THING.

DAY 1 AFTER PURCHASE THE STEERING WAS SO LOOSE YOU HAD TO CONSTANTLY MAKE ADJUSTMENT TO STAY IN YOUR LANE. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND TOOK IT BACK THEY CHECK IT AND SAID EVERYTHING WAS FINE IT TYPICAL OF A JEEP. SAID TO DRIVE IT AND I WOULD GET USED TO IT. I PUT SEVERAL MILES ON IT AND WAS NOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING. I PURCHASED A TERAFLEX 2.2 ADJUSTABLE STEERING STABILIZER HOPING THAT WOULD HELP AND CONTINUED TO DRIVE IT. I TOOK IT BACK THEY FLASHED THE COMPUTER BECAUSE I ASKED THEM TO AFTER I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM. IT STILL WASN'T FIXED. THEY TOOK IT BACK AND PERFORMED THE RECALL BY REPLACING THE STEERING BOX AND REINSTALLING THE OLD STOCK STABILIZER PREVIOUSLY REPLACE BY AFTERMARKET ONE. IT SEEMED BETTER AT FIRST. I CONTINUED TO DRIVE HOPING IT WOULD WORK ITSELF OUT, BUT IT DIDN'T. I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPAIRED A BOOT THAT WAS TORN FROM THE RECALL AND SAID THE COMPUTER STILL NEEDED TO BE FLASHED TO FINISH THE RECALL WHICH THEY DID. THE JEEP STILL PULLS TO THE RIGHT AND HAS LOOSE /DEAD SPOT IN THE STEERING. IT HAPPENS WHILE IN MOTION AND ON ANY STREET. I PLAN ON GIVING THIS JEEP TO MY SON WHEN HE TURNS 16 AND BUYING A NEW ONE. HOWEVER AS OF TODAY I DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THE STEERING TO LET A NEW DRIVER BEHIND THE WHEEL. PLEASE HELP.

BOUGHT USED WITH 17,000 MILES. HAD FACTORY STEERING DAMPER REPLACED DUE TO RECALL WITHIN 1ST WEEK OF HAVING VEHICLE.

WHILE DRIVING ALONG THE INTERSTATE 12/14/19 AT A SPEED IN THE 70MPH RANGE THE JEEP WOULD SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHEN IT WENT OVER ROUGH ROAD OR A BRIDGE. MY DAUGHTER SAYS SHE HAD TO HOLD ON TO THE STEERING WHEEL AND SLOW DOWN IN TRAFFIC. SHE SAYS IT ALSO HAPPENED ON THE RETURN TRIP 12/17/19. MY WIFE HAD AN EPISODE YESTERDAY 1/27/19 AFTER PICKING UP THE JEEP FROM SERVICE IN WHICH THEY REPLACED THE WARRANTY RECALLED JL STEERING DAMPER (PHOTO OF INVOICE ATTACHED). SHE WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND HIT A BUMPY SPOT. SHE SAID IT STARTED SHAKING AND WAS SCARED SHE WAS GOING TO LOSE CONTROL WHILE SLOWING DOWN ON THE INTERSTATE.

STEERING WANDERS FROM THE FIRST TIME I TOOK POSITION OF THE VEHICLE. THE STEERING WOULD PULL TO ONE SIDE AND WHEN MAKE A LITTLE CORRECTION, IT WOULD PULL TO THE OTHER SIDE. THIS IS A CONSTANT PROBLEM. IT DIDN'T MATTER IF I WAS DRIVING AT 25 MPH OR 50 MPH. I THOUGHT IT WOULD IMPROVE THE MORE I DRIVE IT BUT IT DID NOT GET ANY BETTER. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN AT THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOUR TIMES. THE STEERING BOX WAS REPLACED ON THE THIRD TIME THAT WAS BROUGHT BACK TO THEM. THE PROBLEM HAD NOT BEEN CORRECTED. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN RETURNED BACK TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SINCE DECEMBER 26, 2019. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY'RE WAITING FOR A TECH FROM FICA HOPEFULLY BY MID-FEBRUARY 2020. THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT FICA ADVISED THEM THAT THEY'VE DONE ALL THEY CAN DO AND NOT TO TOUCH THE VEHICLE UNTIL A TECH FROM FICA CHECKS THE VEHICLE. I ADVISED THE MANAGER THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I WAS NOT TAKING IT BACK ON THE ROAD. SO THE VEHICLE IS SITTING AT THEIR PARKING LOT. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR OVER 3 MONTHS SO FAR AND COUNTING.

MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER AT 55 MPH LOST CONTROL OF STEERING ON INTERSTATE 99. SHE DESCRIBED IT AS A FLAT TIRE. UPON INSPECTION- NOTHING FLAT. I AS HER MOTHER DROVE- SANE CONDITIONS. SHE ALMOST WRECKED AND CAUSED A SERIES OF VEHICLES BEHIND HER TO DO SO AS WELL. IT IS A PROBLEM OUR LOCAL JEEP DEALER HAS TRIED TO REPAIR. RECALL PERFORMED AND YET STILL PRESENT. IT'S A VERY VERY UNSAFE VEHICLE. SHE'S IN COLLEGE AND UNABLE TO DRIVE TO CLASS. THE DEATH WOBBLE IS INFECT THERE. I WILL SUE WHOMEVER IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO HER OR ANYONE ELSE. I LOVE THE JEEP PRODUCTS. THIS HAS LESS THEN 6000 MILES ON IT. I HAND ANOTHER ONE SAHARA. 2019- SANE BULL BEGINNNJNG AT 3790 MILES. I AM SEEKING A LAWYER.

UNCONTROLLABLE "WANDERING" AND "DRIFTING" ISSUE WITH VEHICLE AND STEERING AS WELL AS EXCESSIVE PLAY IN STEERING WHEEL. VEHICLE HAS BEEN BROUGHT BACK TO DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES THUS FAR AND THE ISSUE HAS BEEN VERBALLY ACKNOWLEDGED BY TECHNICIANS. HOWEVER, OUR UNDERSTANDING IS TECHNICIANS ARE CURRENTLY UNWILLING TO GO ON RECORD OR TO FIX IT PER JEEP CORPORATE INSTRUCTIONS.

ONCE I HIT A SPEED OF 70MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND IF I HIT THE SLIGHTEST BUMP, MY ENTIRE JEEP STARTS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. IF I KEEP MY FOOT ON THE GAS AT MY STEADY SPEED, IT JUST GETS WORSE. THE ONLY THING I CAN DO IS TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS, HOLD ON FOR DEAR LIFE, AND HOPE I DON'T CRASH BC AT THAT POINT I HAVE NO CONTROL. I CANNOT MERGE INTO OTHER LANES TO TRY TO MAKE IT OFF THE HIGHWAY FOR SAFETY AND I CAN'T DO ANYTHING ACCEPT WAIT FOR THE VIOLENT SHAKING TO STOP. ALSO TO HOPE ALL VEHICLES SURROUNDING ME THAT ARE GOING HIGH SPEEDS ARE PAYING ATTENTION SINCE MY SPEED DRASTICALLY CHANGES AND THEY DON'T CRASH INTO ME. I HAVE TWO TODDLERS AND THEY SCREAM AND THEIR HEADS ARE JOLTED FROM SIDE TO SIDE IN THEIR CAR SEATS AS I WAIT FOR IT TO STOP. THIS HAPPENS ALMOST, IF NOT ALL, ANY TIME I GO ABOVE 70 MILES AN HOUR AND THERE IS A BUMP IN THE ROAD. IT HAS NOT BEEN ONE TIME ONLY. I NO LONGER CAN DRIVE MY BRAND NEW JEEP WRANGLER ON THE HIGHWAY AND I DO NOT TAKE MY TODDLERS IN THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY ANYMORE. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER AND I COMMITTED TO THE LARGE MONTHLY AUTO LOAN PAYMENTS TO ENSURE MY KIDS WOULD BE SAFE WHILE DRIVING AND I WOULD HAVE A DEPENDABLE VEHICLE. I HAVE NEITHER BUT I STILL HAVE THE LARGE MONTHLY PAYMENT.

PURCHASED A 2019 JEEP WRANGLER JL ON 01/03/2020. HIT A BUMP AS I PULLED OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP AND THE FRONT WHEEL BEGAN TO "WOBBLE" ALONG WITH THE STEERING WHEEL. IT STOPPED WHEN THE VEHICLE STOPPED. TWO DAYS LATER TRAVELLING AT ABOUT 40 MPH, HIT A SMALL POTHOLE IN THE ROAD AND IT DID IT AGAIN. I CHECKED THE TRACK ARM, WHICH MAY CAUSE THIS ISSUE BUT IT APPEARS THE WELD IS GOOD AND THE BOLTS ARE TIGHT. HAPPENED AGAIN YESTERDAY AS THE WIFE WAS DRIVING. SHE DROVE OVER A BRIDGE AND AS SHE CROSSED ONTO IT OVER THE JOINT, IT BEGAN AGAIN. STOPPED AS SHE SLOWED DOWN. SEARCHED FOR SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND THERE ARE MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. IT MAY HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE STEERING BOX, WHICH JEEP KNOWS ABOUT BUT WON'T REPLACE WITHOUT A HASSLE. NO DAMAGE OR INJURIES (YET).

Mileage: 17,300

BOUGHT THIS CAR WITHOUT DRIVING, WAS SENT FROM ANOTHER DEALER. THE CAR I DID TEST DRIVE SEEMED TO WANDER A BIT WHEN DRIVING. REPORTED THIS TO SALESPERSON. HE RESPONDED YES THEY DRIVE DIFFERENTLY. I SAID I GUESS IT JUST TAKES SOME GETTING USED TO. PICKED UP MY CAR A WEEK LATER. ALL OVER THE ROAD, SCARED TO DEATH TO DRIVE. IT WANDERS SO BADLY ON THE HIGHWAY I CANNOT CONTROL IT. I HAVE PARKED IT IN MY GARAGE WITH 175 MILES ON IT AFTER OWNING FOR 10 DAYS. DROVE TO WORK 2 TIMES AND BACK. TOLD THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT ISSUE, WAS TOLD THAT IS RIDICULOUS, THAT THEY TOLD ME IT DRIVES "DIFFERENTLY" AND THAT I KNEW THAT. I TOLD THEM I EXPECTED A DIFFERENT RIDE, BUT NOT A RIDE WHERE I FEEL I AM GOING TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR AND DIE! THEY ALSO TOLD ME THEY HAVE HEARD OF NO ISSUES WITH THE STEERING ON THESE CARS, WHEN I AM FINDING IT EVERYWHERE I LOOK! THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO HELP, SAYING I CAN ONLY TRADE IT IN FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT THEY SELL. I PAID $40,000 CASH. THIS IS NOT BUYERS REMORSE, IT IS A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE AND I AM NOT GOING TO DRIVE IT. I HAVE A 2019 PORSCHE MACAN BUT WAS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING WITH A LITTLE MORE TRACTION FOR WINTER. THE TRACTION IS FINE ON THE 2019 JEEP, BUT I CANNOT DRIVE IT AS I FEEL SO UNSAFE. NOR DO I WANT TO TRADE IT IN AND HAVE SOMEONE ELSE BUY IT AND GET HURT IN IT

DURING HIGHWAY DRIVING MY JEEP WRANGLER DRIFTS SLOWLY BACK AND FORTH. I HAVE NOTICED THIS SINCE THE FIRST TIME DRIVING ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. I HAVE COMPLAINED AT DEALER IN PADUCAH, KENTUCKY AND WAS TOLD IT'S NORMAL. I ALSO HAVE HAD ELECTRICAL ISSUES WHERE THE AIR CONDITIONER QUIT WORKING. AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS TO FIX, THE DEALER SERVICE MAN FOUND A SHORT IN A JUNCTION UNDER THE HOOD. AFTER THAT WAS PREPARED, THE RADIO, INFO. SCREEN WENT BLANK. IT CAME BACK ON. A SEAT BACK RELEASE HAD TO BE REPLACED TOO. ALL OF THIS AND LESS THAN 4000 MILES ON ODOMETER.

WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS ABOVE 20 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY THE CAR GOES INTO A DEATH WOBBLE WHERE IT FEELS LIKE THE CAR IS GOING TO FALL APART. THE CAR SHAKES AND THE STEERING ABILITY BECOMES UNSTABLE. THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES WITH THE CAR AND WE NEED TO GET TO THE SHOULDER AND STOP. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY AND AT VARIABLE SPEEDS. THE DEALER TRIES TO APPEASE US WITH FIXES THAT DO NOTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THEY CLAIM THAT IT IS NOT DANGEROUS AND DOES NOT DO ANYTHING TO THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE CAR. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW A FEW MONTHS AGO AND IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE DEALER THREE TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE WITHOUT ANY FIX (MOST RECENTLY DECEMBER 24, 2019) WHERE THEY CHANGED OUT A STEERING DAMPER BASED UPON A RECALL. THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM.FOLLOWING THAT WE WERE DRIVING THE CAR ON VACATION THROUGH THE DESERT AND THE CAR WENT INTO A DEATH WOBBLE 10 TIMES WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. UPON RETURNING HOME WE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND INFORMED THEM OF THESE MULTIPLE EPISODES. THE VEHICLE IS GOING BACK IN ON JANUARY 6, 2020. AT THIS POINT THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. WE WERE NOT INFORMED PRIOR TO OUR PURCHASE ABOUT THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE WITH THE WRANGLER.

MY POWER STEERING HAS COMPLETELY LOCKED UP MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAYS, HIGHWAYS, AND RESIDENTIAL STREETS. THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED IN ALL TYPES OF WEATHER, INCLUDING RAINY DAYS AND DRY DAYS, SO THAT DOESN'T SEEM TO HAVE ANY SORT OF IMPACT ON THE ISSUE. WHEN THE POWER STEERING LOCKS UP THE VEHICLE THROWS AROUND 50 CODES, WHICH THE DEALERSHIP HAS RESET MORE THAN ONCE. EACH TIME THE STEERING LOCKS UP I HAVE TO SLAM ON MY BREAKS AND TURN MY CAR ON AND OFF MULTIPLE TIMES UNTIL THE STEERING STARTS WORKING AGAIN. I HAVE TAKEN MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE - ON 11/30/2019 AND TODAY (12/29/2019) - AND HAVE CALLED MANY, MANY TIMES TRYING TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED. NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE OR KNOW HOW TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I PICKED MY JEEP UP FROM THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE SECOND TIME EARLIER TODAY, AND MY STEERING COMPLETELY LOCKED UP AGAIN AFTER DRIVING IT 20 MILES. THIS TIME NOT ONLY DID THE STEERING COMPLETELY LOCK UP, BUT THE BREAKS WERE MALFUNCTIONING AS WELL. EACH TIME I TAKE MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY CLAIM THAT THE ISSUE IS RELATED TO THE SWAY BAR DISCONNECT, WHICH MAKES NO SENSE. BASED ON MY RESEARCH THERE AND MANY, MANY STOCK 2019 WRANGLERS THAT ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. IF THIS ISSUE ISN'T TAKEN CARE OF WITH A SENSE OF URGENCY, SOMEONE IS GOING TO END UP LOSING THEIR LIFE. I AM TIRED OF GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND BEING PUSHED OUT THE DOOR EACH TIME BEING TOLD THAT THE ISSUE IS FIXED WHEN IT CLEARLY ISN'T. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR THIS ISSUE TO GET RESOLVED?

STEERING DRIFTS ALL OVER THE LANES. MUST CONSTANTLY CORRECT STEERING TO KEEP IT CENTERED IN THE ROADWAY. THIS THING WILL WEAR YOU OUT AFTER A RELATIVELY SHORT DRIVE. WHEN YOU ARE BEING PASSED, ATTENTION MUST BE PAID TO THE STEERING TO KEEP YOU FROM DRIFTING INTO THE PASSING VEHICLE. WITH NO INPUT FROM THE DRIVER, THE VEHICLE WILL DRIFT TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT ON IT'S OWN. THIS IS THE WORST DRIVING VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED.

LOOSE AND 'FLIGHTY' STEERING. VEHICLE SEEMS NEEDS CONSTANT STEERING DIRECTIONS, ESPECIALLY AT HIGHER SPEEDS, TO KEEP IN A STRAIGHT LINE. STEERING WHEEL REQUIRES A FEW INCHES OF INPUT IN EITHER DIRECTION TO KEEP STRAIGHT.

SINCE TAKING POSESSION OF THE JEEP I HAVE EXPERIENCED MAJOR STEERING WANDERING. I HAVE ALMOST GOTTEN IN AN ACCIDENT TWICE AS A RESULT ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES BUT ALL THEY DO IS TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. I HAVE SPOKEN TO MANY OTHER JEEP OWNERS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES. I AM FEARFUL FOR MY FAMILIES SAFETY AT THIS POINT. ACTUAL ISSUE DETAILS: THE STEERING WILL TURN RIGHT OR LEFT UNEXPECTEDLY. THERE IS EASILY 2 INCHES OF PLAY IN THE STEERING AS IT IS SO WHEN THE TRUCK WANDERS IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT. THIS ISSUES IS MOST APPARENT ON THE HIGHWAY BUT YOU CAN FEEL IT AS YOU DRIVE AROUND TOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE STEERING BECAME VERY WOBBLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED STEERING ISSUES EVER SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DICK MYERS CHRYSLER JEEP (1711 S MAIN ST, HARRISONBURG, VA 22801) FOUR TIMES BUT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE DEALER STATED IN WRITING THAT THE MANUFACTURER KNEW ABOUT THE FAILURE AND WAS WORKING ON A REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND SENT A FIELD MECHANIC INVESTIGATOR WHO DETERMINED THAT THERE WAS NO FAILURE WITH THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6.

LOOSE STEERING/"DEAD SPOT" CAUSES THERE TO BE PLAY WHEN ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE STRAIGHT. THIS CAN CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO BE DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN A STRAIGHT PATH. EVEN MORE PRONOUNCED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. DEALERSHIPS DESCRIBE THE VEHICLE AS "OPERATING AS DESIGNED"

STEERING: VEHICLE WANDERS AND STEERING IS LOOSE IN EFFORTS TO CORRECT DIRECTION. ANGLE OF ROAD SURFACE SUCH AS CROWN SOMETIMES RESULTS IN UNEXPECTED DIRECTION CHANGE TOWARD ANOTHER LANE AND THE SLOP IN THE STEERING ITSELF MAKES IT CHALLENGING TO CORRECT WITHOUT OVER-CORRECTION. IN TRAFFIC THIS RESULTS IN INTENSE EFFORT TO MAINTAIN POSITION WHICH RESULTS IN INCREASED PHYSICAL AND MENTAL FATIGUE OVER RELATIVELY LONG DRIVES. THE STEERING SEEMS INCONSISTENT AS IT VARIES FROM MINIMALLY PROBLEMATIC TO A WHITE-KNUCKLE DRIVING EXPERIENCE. HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DETERMINE IF THIS IS DUE TO ROAD CONDITION VERSUS STEERING COMPONENT. DEALER HAS PERFORMED THE V41 STEERING DAMPER RECALL WHICH IMPROVED ONLY EXCESSIVE WHEEL SHUDDER WHEN DRIVING OVER ROAD IMPERFECTIONS AND DID NOTHING TO IMPROVE THE WANDERING/LOOSENESS. THEY ALSO DID ADJUST ALIGNMENT WHICH THEY SAID WAS OFF SLIGHTLY. NO NOTABLE IMPROVEMENT FROM THAT. I HAVE ADVISED DEALER THAT THE REPAIR EFFORT WAS NOT EFFECTIVE AND I WILL NOW HAVE TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK IN, BUT THEY TEND TO JUST PROVIDE THE ?IT?S A JEEP - THAT?S THE WAY THEY ARE? LINE. THE STEERING IN THE JEEP IS NOT TYPICAL AND I SEE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS IN FORUMS WHERE A SINGLE THREAD HAS HALF A MILLION VIEWS. SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT HERE.

Mileage: 4,100

PURCHASED VEHICLE NEW AND IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THAT IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO KEEP THE VEHICLE STRAIGHT AT LOW SPEEDS OR IN ONE LANE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. RETURNED VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP FOR TROUBLESHOOTING. AFTER FOUR DAYS THEY RETURNED THE VEHICLE STATING ON PAPERWORK THAT IT WAS "AS GOOD AS IT CAN BE." VEHICLE CONTINUED TO WANDER EVEN WORSE AFTER FIX. THIS VEHICLE NOW FEELS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

Mileage: 3,500

I AM EXPERIENCING THE DEATH WOBBLE. IT HAPPENED ONCE A FEW WEEKS AGO AND THEN NEARLY FIVE TIMES IN A 180 MILE DRIVE. EACH TIME NEARLY CAUSED AND ACCIDENT AND THE POTENTIAL COMPLETE LOSS OF CONTROL. THIS OCCURRED AT SEVEN SPEEDS RANGING FROM 55 TO 75 AND WHEN HITTING SMALL ROAD IMPERFECTIONS.

' DEATH WOBBLE' EXPERIENCED SEVERAL TIMES IN THREE MONTHS. LASTED MANY SECONDS, NO CONTROL OF VEHICLE OR WAY TO REDUCE WOBBLE. ALL EPISODES EXPERIENCED AT HIGH SPEED FOLLOWING HITTING A BUMP. APPARENTLY EXPERIENCED BY OTHER OWNERS, DEALER NEVER MENTIONED ISSUE.

Mileage: 4,000

THE STEERING IN THE 2019 JEEP JL WRANGLER IS SO LOOSE AND WANDERS ACROSS THE LANES AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THAT IT HAS BECOME TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY. IT DOES NOT STAY CENTERED AND IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO KEEP STRAIGHT. IT REQUIRES SO MUCH CONCENTRATION TO WORK THE STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP IT IN THE LANE THAT IT'S JUST NOT WORTH THE DRIVE AND THE EXTREME STRESS.

Mileage: 4,350

THERE'S PLAY IN THE STEERING. VERY RISKY ESPECIALLY AT HIGH SPEED AND WINDING ROADS. TOO MUCH PLAY AND HARD TO MANAGE A STRAIGHT PATH. DANGEROUS!!!

DRIVING 45MPH ON HIGHWAY, JEEP LOST POWER STEERING, WARNING LIGHTS FLASHED BRAKES APPLIED AUTOMATICALLY. SHIFTER SERVICE AND TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. CAR WAS RESTARTED AFTER STRUGGLING TO GET TO SIDE OF HIGHWAY. RESTARTED JEEP AND POWER STEERING CAME BACK TEMPORARILY BUT IT HAPPENED ABOUT 7 MILES DOWN ROAD THIS TIME THE SHIFTER LOCKED UP AFTER RESTART.

THERE HAS ALSO BEEN A WATER LEAK UNDER THE DRIVERS SIDE STEERING COLUMN THAT TWICE NOW THE DEALER HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX, ALL WIRING UNDER THE STEERING WHEEL IS WET AFTER A RAIN AS WELL AS PUDDLES OF WATER ON FLOOR MAT.THIS CAR IS A LEMON

1. WHILE DRIVING, THE STEERING HAS ABOUT 2 INCHES OF FREE PLAY WHILE TURNING THE WHEEL FROM ONE SIDE TO THE OTHER. IN OTHER WORDS THERE IS A DEAD SPOT FOR ABOUT TWO INCHES OF STEERING WHEEL MOVEMENT. IN THAT DEAD SPOT, MOVING THE STEERING WHEEL DOES NOT CHANGE THE VEHICLE DIRECTION. 2. WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WILL WANDER INTO OTHER LANES WHILE HOLDING THE STEERING WHEEL STEADILY IN ONE POSITION. 3. GOING OVER BUMPS CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO UNEXPECTEDLY CHANGE DIRECTIONS. 4. MINOR UNEVEN ROAD SURFACES WILL CAUSE THE STEERING TO WOBBLE VIOLENTLY REQUIRING THE DRIVER TO SLOW DOWN. THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE WHILE DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEED -- WHERE SLOWING DOWN IS QUITE DANGEROUS. 5. WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT, THE STEERING WHEEL IS ALWAYS TURNED SLIGHTLY LEFT. NOTE, THIS IS NOT A ONE-TIME INCIDENT. THIS IS A CONSTANT AND CONSTANTLY STRESSFUL ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE. I CAN REPRODUCE ALL OF THE ABOVE AT ANY TIME.

LAST NIGHT WHILE DRIVING HOME MY JEEP WRANGLER WENT INTO FULL DEATHWOBBLE. I WAS COMING FROM THE I10 WEST TO THE I 19 SOUTH RAMP AT 50 MPH AND HIT THE BRIDGE EXPANSION JOINT AND IT WENT. IT IS A CURVED RAMP OVER PASS AND THE JEEP ALMOST WENT COMPLETELY SIDEWAYS ON THE RAMP. THE JEEP IS TOTALLY STOCK AND HAS 2080 MILES ON IT. I HAVE HAD IT BACK TO THE DEALER AT 1100 MILES FOR THIS SAME COMPLAINT. THEIR RESPONSE IS TO REPLACE A STEERING DAMPER, WHICH IS NOT IN STOCK AND WAS 8 TO 10 WEEKS OUT. EVERY JEEP FRONTEND TECH WILL TELL THAT A STEERING DAMPER IS A BAND AID. THERE SHOULD BE A NATIONAL RECALL ON THESE $55,000 JEEPS.

JEEP HAS VERY LOOSE STEERING. HAVE TO CONSTANTLY OVERCORRECT TO STAY IN THE LANE. DEAD SPOT IN THE CENTER AND HAVE TO TURN IT TOO MUCH TO STEER. WON'T RETURN TO CENTER AFTER TURN. LOTS OF PLAY WHEN DRIVING, PLAY GETS WORSE AT SPEED. I CAN MOVE THE WHEEL BACK AND FORTH AT SPEED WITH LITTLE EFFECT ON STEERING. WHEN I BRAKE THE VEHICLE DIVES TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT DEPENDING ON THE ROAD BECAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL DOES NOT FEEL CONNECTED TO THE WHEELS. JEEP DEALERS SAY THAT IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE THAT BUT IT IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM ANY OTHER 2019 JEEP WRANGLERS THAT I HAVE TEST DRIVEN. ONE DEALER SAID THAT DURING THE ROAD TEST, IT DROVE AS INTENDED YET THEY DIDN'T PUT ANY MILES ON THE JEEP. THIS HAS BEEN DOING THIS SINCE I BOUGHT THE JEEP IN JULY 2019. I HAVE VIDEO BUT IT IS TOO BIG TO UPLOAD TO THE SITE

Mileage: 10

FROM PURCHASE AS NEW VEHICLE, STEERING WANDERS AND IS NOT TIGHT. I HAVE HAD THE V41 RECALL WITH REPLACEMENT STEERING STABILIZER. WHILE DRIVING YOU MUST ACTIVELY STEER TO MAINTAIN A CENTER LINE IN THE LANE. THERE IS SOME PLAY LEFT TO RIGHT IN THE WHEEL. WHILE AT SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY YOU CANNOT IGNORE OR RELAX THE CONTROL. IF YOU STEER RIGHT YOU MUST STEER LEFT TO CENTER, THE WHEEL DOES NOT RETURN TO CENTER UNASSISTED.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 72 MPH, I DROVE OVER A BRIDGE AND SUBSEQUENTLY BUMPS IN THE ROAD. THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY FROM SIDE TO SIDE CAUSING AN INCREASE IN VIBRATION THROUGH OUT MY JEEP AND SWERVING ON THE ROAD. NEXT TIME I WAS WITH MY HUSBAND AND IT DID IT AGAIN AT ABOUT 74 MPH AND HE TOO AGREED THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG. HE NOW FEARS FOR MY SAFETY IN THIS VEHICLE AS I DRIVE A LOT OF MILES.

Mileage: 12,400

TEST DROVE A JEEP WRANGLER, DROVE GREAT. GOT MY NEW WRANGLER, NOT SO GREAT, AS A MATTER OF FACT IT'S DANGEROUS! EXCESSIVE PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL MAKES IT NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP THE VEHICLE IN A LANE.. I CAN'T IMAGINE HOW MUCH MORE DANGEROUS THIS VEHICLE WILL BE ONCE IT IS DRIVEN IN THE SNOW.

STEERING IS WOBBLING SINCE PURCHASING. I HAVE HAD THE DAMPER REPLACED AND HAS NOT HELPED AT ALL. A TON OF PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH THE SPEED ABOUT 63 MILE/HR, AND SUDDENLY MY FRONT TIRER, AND MY STEERING WHEEL WAS VIOLENTLY SHAKING. I HAD TO SLOW IT DOWN, AND PULLED OVER. I THOUGHT I GOT FLAT TIRE OR SOMETHING. I GOOGLED, AND FIND OUT A LOT PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM ALSO. IT'S CALLED "DEAD WOBBLE".

Mileage: 4,060

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 62 MILES PER HOUR, AFTER A TRANSITION ON A ROUGH PATCH OF HIGHWAY ROAD (UNEVEN BLACKTOP) THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE. THE SHAKING FELT HORIZONTAL AS WELL AS VERTICAL. IT STOPPED AND THEN STARTED AGAIN OVER THE COURSE OF ONE TO TWO MILES. IT WAS VERY VIOLENT AND DISRUPTIVE TO THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER CAUSING THEM TO FEEL UNSAFE AND UNWELL. THE DRIVER HAD TO HANG ON TIGHT TO THE STEERING WHEEL TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE JEEP. WE HAVE NO IDEA IF/WHEN THIS SITUATION WILL REOCCUR AND WHAT DAMAGE HAS BEEN DONE BY THIS TO A RELATIVELY NEW VEHICLE OF LESS THAN 7000 MILES. THIS WAS IN DRY WEATHER ON DRY ROADS. WE WERE DRIVING STRAIGHT, IN A RIGHT LANE AND NOT TURNING AT THE TIME.

AS I WAS TRAVELING DOWN INTERSTATE 20 IN COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, I CROSSED OVER THE BUSH RIVER ROAD BRIDGE AND HIT A FEW SMALL BUMPS IN THE ROAD WHICH IMMEDIATELY THREW MY JEEP INTO VERY STRONG VIBRATIONS. THE VIBRATIONS WERE SO STRONG THAT I FELT THE VIBRATIONS FROM THE STEERING WHEEL UP MY ARMS AND INTO MY NECK. I TRULY THOUGHT I HAD A FLAT TIRE ON MY JEEP. AFTER APPROXIMATELY 15 - 20 SECONDS OF THESE INTENSE VIBRATIONS, THE VIBRATIONS STOPPED ON THEIR OWN. I CROSSED OVER THREE LANES OF TRAFFIC TO PULL OVER TO INSPECT MY JEEP NOTICING NOTHING ABNORMAL. ALL TIRES HAVE NORMAL, RECOMMEND MANUFACTURED PSI. I HAVE ALL STOCK ITEMS ON MY JEEP WITH NO ALTERATIONS TO THE SUSPENSION SYSTEM, TIRES, ETC. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 13,500 MILES ON IT AND WAS NEWLY PURCHASED EARLIER THIS YEAR AT MORE THAN $55,000.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT SPEEDS OVER 50 MILES AN HOUR, HITTING A BUMP OR A POTHOLE DESTABILIZES THE FRONT AND CAUSING THE WHEELS TO VIBRATE LOSING CONTROL TEMPORARILY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS WHILE GOING AROUND A CURVE AND THE CAR IS UNABLE TO BE CONTROLLED.

Mileage: 11,000

THE VEHICLE HAS EXCESSIVE STEERING WANDER WHEN DRIVING ABOVE 20 MPH AND GETS WORSE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS MAKING THE VEHICLE VERY UNSAFE. THE VEHICLE WILL NOT STAY TRACKING IN 1 LANE WITHOUT CONSTANT CORRECTION OF THE STEERING WHEEL. (PURCHASED JEEP BRAND NEW & HAVE BEEN BACK TO THE DEALER 2X AND IT STILL IS NOT FIXED)

I HAVE ISSUES WITH THE FRONT END WHEN DRIVING AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD. THE FRONT END STARTS VIOLENTLY SHAKING FROM SIDE TO SIDE. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS 2 TIMES THIS WEEK AND BOTH TIMES ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE IT THROUGH ME ACROSS THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS A 2019 WITH LESS THAN 8,000 MILES ON IT. I ALSO HAVE MADE NO MODIFICATIONS TO IT- STANDARD FACTORY STOCK MODEL. I CAME HOME AND GOOGLED WHAT HAPPENED AND AM NOW LEARNING THIS IS THE JEEP DEATH WOBBLE. WHY IN THE WORLD IS THIS VEHICLE ALLOWED TO BE DRIVEN WITH SUCH A KNOWN ISSUE?!

Mileage: 8,000

LOOSE STEERING WHEEL. HAVING TO CONSTANTLY ADJUST TJHE STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP THE CAR DRIVING IN STRAIGHT LINE. THE DEALER CLAIMS THAT'S HOW A WRANGLER SHOULD DRIVE. I'VE DRIVEN OTHER 2019 WRANGLERS AND NON OF THEM HAD THE SAME ISSUE. JEEP CARE ARE PROVIDING A HORRIBLE SERVICE AND SO FAR THEY DIDN'T PROVED ANY SOLUTIONS, THE CASE MANAGER IS AVOIDING MY CALLS.

Mileage: 100

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCES VIOLENT SHAKING AFTER GOING OVER A SERIES OF BUMPS. IT BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN YOUR LANE. IT IS ONLY REMEDIED BY SLOWING TO LESS THAN 60MPH. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE SEVERAL TIMES. IT HAS HAPPENED OVER A DOZEN TIMES OVER THE PAST MONTH. I HAVE 8000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE.

Mileage: 7,000

AT SPEEDS GREATER THAN 40 MPH, THERE IS ABOUT 1.5 INCHES OF PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL AT TOP DEAD CENTER. THIS VEHICLE IS DIFFICULT TO KEEP IN THE LANE IN WINDY CONDITIONS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (60-70 MPH). STAR PUB S1819000003 WAS PERFORMED, TRACK BAR AND STEERING DAMPER WERE REPLACED. WANDERING IS LESS, BUT NO CHANGE IN THE EXCESSIVE PLAY. OPENED JEEP WAVE CASE 58745605. CASE WAS CLOSED BY FCA STATING THAT THE STEERING WAS AS DESIGNED AND A NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER HAD ME DRIVE TWO OTHER COMPARABLE VEHICLES AND INDEED THEY ALL WANDER AND HAVE PLAY IN THE STEERING AS DOES MINE.ONE WAS EVEN WORSE. THIS STEERING CHARACTERISTIC IS BORDERLINE UNSAFE IN WINDY CONDITIONS ON A TWO LANE ROAD AND FCA IS OFFERING NO FIX AT THIS TIME.

Mileage: 212

THE STEERING IS LOSE WITH A DEAD ZONE IN THE CENTER. I'M AFRAID TO TAKE IT ON THE INTERSTATE BECAUSE IT WONDERS INTO OTHER LANES AND DOES NOT DRIVE STRAIGHT. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 5000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE HAD THE ALIGNMENT DONE AND A NEW STABILIZER BAR INSTALLED FROM THE DEALERSHIP WITH NO IMPROVEMENT TO THE STEERING. THIS IS THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE WITH MY 2019 JL WUR.

Mileage: 4,500

DRIVING HIGH WAY SPEEDS HIT A GROVE IN THE ROAD ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE WHOLE FRONT END TURNS TO JELLO. THE STEERING FEEL VIOLENTLY SHAKES TO THE POINT WHERE YOU LOSE STEERING. YOU CAN'T GET OVER TO SLOW DOWN TO SLOWER SPEEDS AND YOU CANNOT GRIP THE STEERING WHEEL TOO TIGHT BECAUSE THE VIBRATION WILL HAVE NO WHERE TO GO AND YOU WILL EVENTUALLY FLIP OVER.THE ONLY THING TO STOP THE VIBRATION IS TO SLOW DOWN WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE ON A HIGHWAY WHERE EVERYONE IS DRIVING 75MPH. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO HAVE THIS FIXED TWICE. JEEP KEEPS TRYING TO PUT A STEERING DAMPER ON IT THAT DOES NOT WORK. THEY REFUSE TO CHECK FOR WELDING WORK OR ANYTHING ELSE MANUFACTURED DEFECTIVE THAT WOULD CAUSE THE ISSUE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES MARCH 2019 AND OCTOBER 2019 ARE THE DATE I SENT IT IN FOR SERVICE. PLEASE HELP US CONSUMERS I HAVE CHILDREN AND ITS NOT SAFE

Mileage: 9,000

LEAVING FOR WORK IN THE MORNINGS AFTER THE TEMP HAS DROPPED BELOW 40 DEGREES THE STEERING WHEEL WILL BIND WHILE TRYING TO TURN LEFT. NORMALLY ONLY A SLIGHT RESISTANCE BUT ONE MORNING IT ALMOST CAUSED ME TO RUN OFF THE ROAD AROUND A LEFT HAND TURN, I HAD TO FORCE THE WHEEL TO TURN.

Mileage: 11,500

STEERING WHEEL HAS "DEAD SPOT" IN THE CENTER ALLOWING WHEELS TO FREE STEER A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DEGREES BEFORE STEERING WHEEL ENGAGES AND TURNS THE WHEELS. THIS CAUSES DRIVER TO OVER-CORRECT TO KEEP VEHICLE IN THE LANE. ESP NOTICEABLE AT SPEED OVER 45 MPH DRIFTING FROM ONE SIDE OF LANE TO OTHER AND WHEN DIRECTIONS CHANGE RAPIDLY LIKE IN AN S CURVE. ALSO WHEN TURNING CORNERS STEERING WHEEL AND WHEELS WILL NOT RETURN TO CENTER. RETURNS AS FAR AS THE DEAD SPOT THEN WILL NOT CENTER WITHOUT LOTS OF DRIVER INPUT. *LN CONSUMER STATED SHORT VIDEO JEEP DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY OF ME MOVING MY STEERING WHEEL SIDE TO SIDE WITH THE JEEP NOT TURNING AT ALL.

Mileage: 1,000

AT SPEEDS OF 45-55 ANY BUMP OR EXPANSION JOINT ON HIGHWAY CAUSES SHAKING IN STEERING WHEEL FOR A SUSTAINED PERIOD OF TIME. IT LASTS WELL BEYOND THE IMPACT AND IF I MAINTAIN SPEEDS THE SHAKING IN THE WHEEL AND FRONT END CONTINUES. I HAVE TO ACTUALLY SLOW DOWN ON THE HIGHWAY FOR THE SHAKING TO GO AWAY. I DO NO'T FEEL SAFE TRAVELING WITH THIS VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY AND HAVE A PIT IN MY STOMACH THINKING ABOUT OTHERS WHO MAY HAVE THIS ISSUE. I WISH I HAD KNOWN ABOUT THESE ISSUES BEFORE I BOUGHT THE 2019 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SAHARA. MY JEEP ONLY HAS 1,300 MILES ON IT.

Mileage: 1,200

1300 MILES ON A 2019 NEW JEEP WRANGLER 2DR, 100% STOCK. AT 60MPH ON THE FREEWAY, IN SPEED CONTROL, SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE LOST ALL CONTROL OF STEERING AND SHOOK VIOLENTLY, NEARLY CAUSING A MAJOR FREEWAY COLLISION. I'VE NOW LEARNED THIS IS THE WELL KNOWN 'DEATH WOBBLE'. I HAVE ALSO LEARNED THE VEHICLE HAS THE DAMPER SUPPOSEDLY PREVENTING THIS ALREADY INSTALLED. THE DEALER HAS NO EXPLANATION, REPLACED THE 'DAMPER' AND BASICALLY SAID THERE IS NOTHING MORE THEY CAN DO. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AGAIN. IF I HAD BEEN KILLED, THERE WOULD BE NO WAY TO HAVE IDENTIFIED THE CAUSE AS THE 'DEATH WOBBLE'. I SIMPLY DO NOT BELIEVE NO ONE HAS BEEN KILLED BY THIS OBVIOUS DEFECT. THE GENERAL MANAGER OF THE DEALER DENIES HE HAS EVER HEARD OF THE DEATH WOBBLE, AN OBVIOUS LIE. THE SERVICE MANAGERS AT TWO DEALERS CLEARLY ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM BUT SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. I CAN'T BELIEVE THE WRANGLER HASN'T BEEN RECALLED AND REMOVED FROM SERVICE. THE LEMON LAW PROVIDES NO RECOURSE UNLESS IT HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES AND I'M LUCKY ENOUGH TO SURVIVE. THIS IS CRAZY! I HOPE SOMEONE NHTSA WILL REACH OUT TO ME.

Mileage: 1,300

FROM THE MOMENT WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE (09/10/2019) THE STEERING HAS BEEN A PROBLEM. THE CAR REQUIRES CONSTANT INPUT FROM THE DRIVER TO MAINTAIN THE LANE OF TRAVEL. THE STEERING PROBLEM BECOMES WORSE WITH SPEED AND IT IS A HANDFUL AT FREEWAY SPEEDS.

Mileage: 198

NEW VEHICLE WITH 1800 MILES. THERE IS A NOTICEABLE DEAD ZONE, 'PLAY', WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS CENTERED AND DRIVING STRAIGHT. ALSO, BECAUSE OF THE DEAD ZONE, THE VEHICLE DOES NOT SEEM TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE IN A STRAIGHT LINE MOST NOTABLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE JEEP SERIOUSLY WANDERS ON STRAIGHT ROADS WITHOUT CONSTANT CORRECTION. THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED DOCUMENTED HERE: HTTPS://WWW.TFLCAR.COM/2018/09/2018-JEEP-WRANGLER-JL-STEERING-PROBLEM/ AND HER: HTTPS://WWW.TFLCAR.COM/2018/12/2019-JEEP-WRANGLER-STEERING-ISSUES/ AND WITH MULTIPLE OTHER SOURCES.BOTH ISSUES HAPPENING SIMULTANEOUSLY COULD RESULT IN INAVERTENT LANE CHANGE WITH SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES! IN THE CURRENT ENVIRONMENT OF SAFETY TECHNOLOGY, LANE DEPARTURE, CLOSURE WARNINGS ETC., TO PRODUCE A VEHICLE WITH THESE DESIGN FLAWS SHOULD BE CRIMINAL. PLEASE TAKE ACTION ON THIS!

Mileage: 100

WRANGLER STEERING IS LOOSE AND VEHICLE WANDERS WITHIN A LANE, OFTEN CROSSING LANES IF NOT PERFECTLY CONTROLLED. HANDS MOVE TWO TO FIVE INCHES WHILE YOU TRY TO KEEP A STRAIGHT CENTER PATH WITH THE VEHICLE. ANY MOVEMENT, SAY TURN UP THE RADIO SOUND VIA THE KNOB, OFTEN RESULTS IN THE VEHICLE SWERVING INTO ANOTHER LANE. DIFFICULTY IS MORE NOTICEABLE WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS STARTED TO HAPPEN IMMEDIATELY AFTER RECEIVING VEHICLE FROM DEALER. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO DEALER AND SERVICE DEPARTMENT STATED ALL SPECS WERE CORRECT AND VEHICLE IS OPERATING AS IT SHOULD. DEALER STATED THAT FCA CHANGED THE STEERING OF THE VEHICLE TO BETTER HANDLE OFF ROAD DRIVING AND THAT THE WANDERING DURING NORMAL DRIVING WAS NORMAL. I FEEL THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE IF THE UTMOST CONCENTRATION TO KEEP THE JEEP STRAIT IS NOT FOLLOWED. AT 60 YEARS OLD I AM NOT CONCERNED FOR MYSELF AS MUCH AS THE YOUNGER TEENAGERS AND ADULTS THAT EASILY GET DISTRACTED ETC.

Mileage: 900

SINCE NEW, VEHICLE HAS WANDERED FROM SIDE TO SIDE ON THE ROAD WITH NO STEERING INPUT. STEERING FEELS LOOSE AND DOES NOT RESPOND INSTANTLY TO INPUT. WE RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY PERFORMED A STEERING "FLASH" THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. THE FLASH DID NOT SEEM TO CHANGE ANYTHING WITH THE WAY THE VEHICLE STEERS AND WANDERS FROM SIDE TO SIDE. WE WERE TOLD THAT THIS IS JUST HOW ALL JEEPS STEER. IT SEEMS UNREASONABLE THAT YOU MUST CONSTANTLY PROVIDE STEERING WHEEL INPUT TO ATTEMPT TO KEEP THE VEHICLE WITHIN IT'S LANE. A RELAXING DRIVE IN THIS VEHICLE IS IMPOSSIBLE. IT REQUIRES YOU TO BE HYPER AWARE OF EXACTLY WHERE THE VEHICLE IS DRIFTING WITHIN IT'S LANE TO PROVIDE CORRECTIVE INPUT. SIMPLY STATING THIS IS HOW THEY ALL DRIVE IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. BOTH THE LOOSE STEERING FEEL AND LANE DRIFTING/WANDERING HAPPEN AT ALL SPEEDS. HIGHWAY OR CITY.

IMMEDIATELY UPON DELIVERY BY DEALER, STEERING MALFUNCTIONED ON NEW 2019 JEEP WRANGLER. STEERING WHEEL HAD 3-4 INCHES OF PLAY TURNING TO EITHER RIGHT OR LEFT WHICH CAUSED 2019 JEEP WRANGLER TO WANDER AND MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER ACCURATELY AND STAY IN LANE. PROBLEM IS WORSE ON HIGHWAY AND AT HIGHER SPEEDS. BROUGHT BACK TO DEALER WHERE PURCHASED TWICE AND TO TWO OTHER JEEP DEALERS. ALL TEST DRIVE VEHICLE AND ACKNOWLEDGED PROBLEM. LAST DEALER SAID ALL KNOWN RECALL REPAIRS HAD NOW BEEN COMPLETED AND ACKNOWLEDGED THAT PROBLEM PERSISTS AND VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. VEHICLE REMAINS AT THAT DEALER AFTER FOUR SEPARATE UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS BY DEALERS TO FIX PROBLEM. COMPLAINT FILED WITH FCA/JEEP AND AWAITING RESPONSE.

I JUST PURCHASED A NEW 2019 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON WITH A MARCH 2019 BUILD DATE. AS OF RIGHT NOW, THE MILEAGE IS ABOUT 300 MILES. IT'S A PHENOMENAL VEHICLE, EXCEPT FOR A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING THAT MAKES DRIVING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE. THERE IS EXCESSIVE PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE POINT WHERE IT'S DIFFICULT TO KEEP THE VEHICLE CENTERED IN THE LANE, PARTICULARLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE MOST CONCERNING SITUATION IS WHEN THERE IS AN ONCOMING CAR ON A NARROW ROADWAY. THE VEHICLE TENDS TO WANDER BACK AND FORTH, AND WHEN YOU CORRECT IT, IT SOMETIMES OVER-CORRECTS. I HAVE NOT YET RAISED THIS ISSUE WITH THE DEALER, BUT WILL VERY SOON. WHEN I RESEARCHED TO SEE IF THE STEERING CAN BE ADJUSTED, I DISCOVERED NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FROM OTHERS ABOUT THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THERE CLEARLY IS A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING ON THE WRANGLER JL'S THAT JEEP NEEDS TO ADDRESS.

Mileage: 40

NEW WRANGLER WANDERS ON ROAD AND IS DIFFICULT TO KEEP IN LANE. TRIED ADJUSTING AIR IN TIRES TO MULTIPLE PRESSURES WITH LITTLE TO NO IMPROVEMENT.

I DO NOT THINK IT IS NORMAL TO CONSTANTLY HAVE TO FIGHT THE VEHICLE TO REMAIN IN LANES.

I HAVE A BRAND NEW 2019 JEEP JL 4 DOOR WRANGLER SPORT, HAS LESS THAN 1000 MILES AND NOTICE THE PROBLEM RIGHT AFTER PURCHASE DRIVING HOME 2 HOMES FROM DEALERSHIP. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME AFTER DRIVING A DODGE RAM PICKUP FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS AND FIGURED IT WAS A BIG DIFFERENCE IN THE STEERING. TOOK OUR FIRST 4 HOUR TRIP AND NOTICE THAT THE JEEP WAS PULLING TO RIGHT AND THAT THERE WAS A LOT OF PLAY (2-4 INCHES) IN THE STEERING, THAT BY THE TIME I GOT DONE MY DRIVING I WAS EXHAUSTED. TOOK THE JEEP INTO LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP SERVICE TO HAVE CHECKED. THEY DETERMINED THAT ALIGNMENT WAS OUT OF SPECS AND FIXED. TOOK ANOTHER 4 HOUR TRIP LAST WEEKEND AND THE STEERING WAS WORST. TO KEEP JEEP DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE I HAD TO KEEP STEERING WHEEL TURNED TO LEFT SLIGHTLY. WHENEVER I TRIED TO STRAIGHTEN STEERING WHEEL THE JEEP WOULD DRIFT TO RIGHT AGAIN AND STEERING HAD JUST AS MUCH OR MORE PLAY IN IT AS BEFORE. JUST TOOK IT BACK INTO SERVICE AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT WAS PROBABLY JUST THE "CROWN IN THE ROAD" THAT WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. I CAME HOME AND RESEARCHED MY PROBLEM AND FOUND THIS WEBSITE WHERE I SEE I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THE PROBLEM. THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND RECALLED TO FIX PROPERLY OR THERE WILL BE CRASHES AND I PRAY TO GOD NO FATALITIES.

Mileage: 524

THE STEERING HAS A HUGE DEAD SPOT WHERE THE STEERING WHEEL TURNS BUT DOES NOTHING TO EFFECT THE DIRECTION OF THE WHEELS. THE VEHICLE WANDERS FROM ONE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO THE OTHER. THE DRAG LINK IS ALSO EXTREMELY LOOSE.

STEERING WHEEL SHAKES VIOLENTLY AFTER GOING OVER A MINOR BUMP OR ROAD ROUGHNESS WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS (55+) ON THE HIGHWAY. IT WILL SOMETIMES CORRECT ITSELF AND HAS NOT BEEN TOO BAD OF A SHAKE BUT OVER THE WEEKEND, I HAD TO SLOW DOWN FROM 70MPH TO 45MPH IN THE MIDDLE OF I95 B/C THE STEERING WHEEL SHOOK SO BAD AND WOULD NOT STOP SHAKING UNTIL I SLOWED MY SPEED DOWN. THIS WAS AS A RESULT OF GOING OVER A MINOR BUMP IN THE ROAD. ONE TIME IT HAPPENED WHILE GOING AROUND A CURVE IN THE HIGHWAY AND THE "RUMBLE STRIPS" TRIGGERED IT. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR THAT I PURCHASED IN JUNE. THIS WHEEL SHAKING JUST STARTED A FEW WEEKS AGO. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS MATTER. IT IS UNSAFE AND CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WHETHER SOMEONE REAR ENDS MY VEHICLE WHILE I AM ATTEMPTING TO SLOW DOWN OR I LOSE CONTROL OF MY CAR B/C I CANNOT GET THE WHEEL SHAKING IN CONTROL.

MY JEEP WANDERS ALL OVER THE ROAD. ITS EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE AND TIRING TO CONSTANTLY CORRECT THE STEERING TO STAY IN A LANE. SPECIFICALLY WHEN GOING 50 MPH OR MORE.. IT HAS BEEN THIS WAY FROM DAY ONE. THERE IS TOO MUCH PLAY IN THE STEERING. IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY. WE ALREADY DID ONE FACTORY RECALL AND IT DID NOTHING TO CHANGE THE STEERING. IM TIRED OF ALL THE EXCUSES SUCH AS "ITS A JEEP THING,JUST ENJOY IT" OR "THATS JUST HOW IT IS" AS WELL AS THE SUGGESTIONS TO PURCHASE OTHER PARTS AND MODIFICATIONS TO CORRECT THE STEERING OF A BRAND NEW VEHICLE. THIS SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE. I HAVE DRIVEN MY FAIR SHARE OF OFF ROAD VEHICLES AND IVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS KIND OF WANDERING FROM ANY OF THEM. ALSO, MY WRANGLER HAS BEEN LEAKING OIL SINCE ABOUT 1500 MILES. IVE ALREADY HAD THE REAR MAIN SEAL REPLACED AFTER SITTING AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR 2 MONTHS AND THE OIL PAN REPLACED THE 2ND VISIT. I CURRENTLY HAVE AN APPT TO TAKE IT IN FOR A 3RD TIME BECAUSE IT IS STILL LEAKING OIL. MY JEEP HAS LESS THAN 2000 MILES.

Mileage: 1,500

THE STEERING IN MY JLR FEELS DISCONNECTED AND UNPREDICTABLE'ESPECIALLY AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. IT'S BEEN TO THE DEALER FOUR TIMES FOR THIS AND I'VE ADDED SOME AFTERMARKET PARTS, WHICH HAVE HELPED. DESPITE THAT, IT IS STILL NOT RIGHT. THERE ARE TIMES THAT WHEN DRIVING CONSTANT CORRECTIONS ARE REQUIRED. THERE IS AROUND 2 TO 3 INCHES OF PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THE REAL PROBLEM IS THAT THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE STEERING SYSTEM DON'T FEEL IN SYNC. THIS OCCURS AT ANY SPEED ON THE FREEWAY OR SURFACE STREETS, BUT I'S MOST OBVIOUS ONCE UP TO FREEWAY SPEEDS. TURNING ON THE FREEWAY, SPECIFICALLY OFF RAMPS AND MOUNTAIN HIGHWAYS WITH TURNS ON ACCENTS AND DESCENTS CAN BE HARROWING. WE WERE ON US 50 ON THE WAY TO LAKE TAHOE BUT HAD TO TURN AROUND BECAUSE WE DIDN'T FEEL SAFE. I PUT TODAY'S DATE ON THE WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN FIELD, BUT IT'S BEEN SINCE NEW IN APRIL, 2019.

TIRE PRESSURES CHECKED AND REALIGNED. NO CHANGE. NOT SURE WHERE ELSE TO GO NOW. DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS IS NOT SAFE! I CONSTANTLY HAVE TO CORRECT STEERING ON STRAIGHT SECTIONS (LIKE A BOWLING BALL GOING DOWN ALLEY WITH BUMPERS ON SIDES). IN OTHER WORDS, YOU HAVE TO OVER-CORRECT TO BECAUSE JEEP DOES NOT START TO TURN UNTIL PAST DEAD SPOT.

FOLLOW ON TO LAST WEEKS INITIAL INPUT OF CASE NUMBER 11257557 NHTSA # REF: VIN NUMBER [XXX] RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTE TO IMMEDIATELY COME TO A DEALERSHIP AND GET THE STEERING STABILIZER FIXED OR REPLACED. (NOTE I DIDN'T HAVE ANY ISSUE DRIVING FOR THE PAST 4 MONTHS UNTIL THIS RECALL NOTE.) I DID THAT (WENT TO FARICY BOYS COLORADO SPRINGS DEALERSHIP. THEY REPLACED A PART OR TWO.IN APPROX. 2 HOURS. NEXT DAY DROVE IT AND IT WAS A LOT WORSE, I TOOK IT BACK TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP.....THEY THEN REPLACED THE STEERING BOX AND THE PITMAN ARM. (RECEIPT ATTACHED) IT TOOK THEM 2 DAYS TO DO THAT. I THEN DROVE IT AGAIN.....IT WAS A LOT WORSE I PULLED OVER ON THE ROAD AND LOOKED UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. I NOTICED WET MARKS ALL OVER THE PARTS UNDER THE VEHICLE AS IF SOMETHING WAS LEAKING (PICTURES ATTACHED) I TOOK IT BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN ALL THEY DID WAS USE A CLEANER ON THE ONE SECTION UNDERNEATH AND SAID ALL IS GOOD. I TOOK MORE PICTURES OF THE ISSUE AND YOU CAN SEE MORE WET AREAS UNDER THE VEHICLE. I STATED EITHER THEY SPILLED SOMETHING WHEN THEY PULLED THE PART OR SOMETHING WAS NOT TIGHTENED AT THIS POINT CAUSING THE LEAKING NOW. THEY SAID ALL WAS GOOD. THE VEHICLE WAS SMELLING OF SOMETHING BURNING UNDER THE VEHICLE. I THEN TOOK IT TO A VEHICLE CLEANING SERVICE TO GET THE WHOLE UNDERCARRIAGE CLEANED TO STOP THE BAD SMELL AND DE-GREASED THE COMPLETE UNDERNEATH OF THE VEHICLE. TODAY AGAIN THE VEHICLE IS DRIVING (WANDERING AS DRIVING ON THE ROAD) I TOOK ANOTHER VIDEO AGAIN BECAUSE OF THE WAY IT WAS WONDERING AND PULLED INTO THE RIGHT LANE AS I AM DRIVING ....TOTALLY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT THIS MOMENT.

I CAN'T LOOK AWAY TO CHANGE THE RADIO STATION BECAUSE WHEN I LOOK BACK I AM ALREADY WANDERING TO THE NEXT LANE. THE STEERING HAS TOO MUCH PLAY. IT HAS BEEN THIS WAY FROM DAY ONE. IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY. I JUST WANT TO PUT A SIGN ON MY JEEP THAT SAYS, "IT'S THE JEEP, NOT ME." MY HUSBAND BOUGHT ME THIS FOR OUR ANNIVERSARY AND I HATE IT. I WOULD RATHER DRIVE OUR 2006 JEEP THAT DRIVES STRAIGHT AND STEERING IS TIGHT. WE ALREADY DID ONE FACTORY RECALL AND IT DID NOTHING TO CHANGE THE STEERING.

THIS ENTERPRISE RENT A CAR OWNED JEEP HAS UNDER 14,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. AT HIGHWAY SPEED ABOVE ABOUT 70 MPH, A SMALL BUMP OR TRIGGER SUCH AS AN OVERPASS EXPANSION JOINT, INITIATES VIOLENT SHAKING AND BOUNCING OF THE FRONT END. THE SHAKING DOES NOT DISSIPATE UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS SLOWED TO ABOUT 30 MPH. THIS PROBLEM IS EASILY REPEATABLE. HIGHWAY SPEED + LITTLE TRIGGER YIELDS VIOLENT SHAKING. THE SHAKING IS SO STRONG THAT 2 HANDS ON THE WHEEL ARE NEEDED TO KEEP THE VEHICLE FROM CAREENING OUT OF CONTROL.

Mileage: 13,400

STEERING HAS ABOUT A 2 INCH DEAD SPOT IN THE MIDDLE WHERE WHEN YOU TURN THE WHEEL AND THE STEERING DOES NOT RESPOND. IT ALSO HAS A "WANDERING" OVER THE ROAD THAT GETS AMPLIFIED WITH THE DEAD SPOT. YOU WIND UP CONSTANTLY DOING SMALL STEERING CORRECTIONS TO COMPENSATE AND IT GETS TIRING TO DO SO. FEEL LIKE YOU ARE WANDERING IN YOUR LANE EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE ON A STRAIGHT ROAD. BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES FOR THIS AND STILL NO FIX. THEY'VE REPLACED THE STEERING GEAR BOX AND THE DAMPER (PER FCA RECALL). THE FIRST 2 TRIPS TO THE DEALER YIELDED THEM BASICALLY BLOWING ME OFF ANS STATED IT DRIVES AS DESIGNED. THAT'S NOT CORRECT, IT DOES NOT DRIVE CORRECTLY.

PLAY IN STEERING WHEEL OF 0.75 INCH TO EACH SIDE. JEEP TRIED TO FIX ISSUE BY INSTALLING AN UPGRADED TRACK BAR, STEERING DAMPER AND INTERMEDIATE STEERING COLUMN SHAFT. ISSUE IMPROVED TO 0.75 INCHES OF PLAY TO EACH SIDE FROM ABOUT 1 INCH TO EACH SIDE. STEERING PLAY MAINLY NOTICABLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OVER 60 MPH. CONSTANT CORRECTION IS REQUIRED TO STAY IN LANE. ISSUE IS REALLY SIGNIFICANT ON WINDY DAYS SINCE OVER CORRECTION IS LIKELY. I HAD A SITUATION PASSING TWO TRUCKS IN THE MIDDLE LANE AND I COULD HARDLY MANAGE THE TURBULENCE AND NOT HITTING ONE OF THE TRUCKS. MY DAUGHTER IS NOT DRIVING THE THE WRANGLER SINCE SHE FEELS NOT SAVE. MY WIFE AND I GETTING TIRED DRIVING REALLY QUICKLY. JEEP HAS NO SOLUTION AND THE DEALER SAYS THAT THERE IS NO FIX. IF I MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL BY .75 INCHES THE STEERING COLUMN TURNS , THE LINK TO THE STEERING GEARBOX TURNS BUT THE OUTPUT ARM OF THE STEERING GEARBOX IS NOT MOVING.

I MADE MANY UPGRADES TO THE VEHICLE, BUT THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE. WE HAVE ADDED POSITIVE CASTER AND LOWERED AIR PRESSURE WHICH IMPROVED IT, BUT IT STILL MUCH MORE DIFFICULT TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY THAN OUR 2011 WRANGLER WAS. IT IS ESPECIALLY NOTICEABLE ON CONCRETE GROOVED HIGHWAY OR IN AREAS WHERE ROADWORK IS BEING DONE AND THEY HAVE TEMPORARILY MOVED THE LANE OF TRAVEL SO YOU ARE DRIVING OVER THE GROOVES IN ROAD SEPARATING LANES.

MY 2019 WRANGLER JLU RUBICON STEERS LIKE A BOAT. IT WANDERS LEFT AND RIGHT WHEN GOING STRAIGHT....HAS SINCE NEW AND I HAVE OVER 7300 MILES ON IT NOW. I'VE UPGRADED THESTEERING DAMPNER WITH AN AFTERMARKET FOX DAMPNER. IT HELPED JUST A BIT, BUT THE STEERING STILL REQUIRES CONSTANT CORRECTIONS.

Mileage: 459

STEERING IS LOOSE, MOST NOTICEABLE AROUND 50MPH WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING STRAIGHT. IT CAN OFTEN BE WHITE KNUCKLE DRIVING WHEN CARS ARE AROUND. THE RESPONSE FOR SLIGHT CORRECTIONS IS LACKING. THERE SEEMS TO BE AN INCH OR TWO OF PLAY IN THE WHEEL BEFORE IT RESPONDS. YOU DRIFT IN THE LANE AND FEEL UNSAFE. MY JEEP IS AROUND 1 MONTH OLD, ONLY HAS ABOUT 800 MILES ON IT. BOTH MY WIFE AND I COMMENTED ON IT WHEN NEW. IT'S OUR FIRST JEEP, SO WE CHALKED IT UP TO JUST BEING A 'JEEP THING'. AFTER READING ABOUT THE INVESTIGATION, WE REALIZED THIS IS LIKELY A BIGGER PROBLEM AND IT'S NOT A 'JEEP THING'.

Mileage: 15

VEHICLE BEGINS TO WONDER BADLY BEGINNING AT ABOUT 40 MPH, CAN GET SCARY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. WE OWNED A 2016 JK AND IT DIDN'T HAVE THIS ISSUE. UNSAFE AND UNHAPPY.

Mileage: 10

STEERING IS WEIRD IT RANDOMLY JERKS TO THE RIGHT AND LEFT, I HAVE TAKEN IT IN MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY CAN'T SEEM ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT BUT IT CAN'T BE SAFE THAT MY JEEP JERKS AND VEERS WHILE DRIVING

Mileage: 80

THE STEERING WHEEL IS NOT STRAIGHT AND STEERS TO LEFT. KIND OF ANNOYING WHEN IT IS A BRAND NEW VEHICLE.

Mileage: 150

HANDLING WHILE DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS IS TERRIBLE. THE STEERING CONSTANTLY WANDERS AND REQUIRES NOT STOP CORRECTIONS TO MAINTAIN LANE POSITION. IF ANY BUMPS IN THE ROAD OR WIND IS PRESENT, THE RISK OF WANDERING INTO ANOTHER LANE IS GREATLY INCREASED AND I HAVE NARROWLY AVOIDED SEVERAL COLLISIONS WITH OTHER VEHICLES ALREADY.

Mileage: 705

AS I DROVE OFF THE LOT I NOTICED THE INSTRUMENT PANEL HAD A DISTORTION ON IT. DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO FIX (AFTER A SOFTWARE UPGRADE). MORE CONCERNING IS THE CAR SHAKES VIOLENTLY WHEN HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD. I TOOK IT IN 3 TIMES WITHOUT RESOLUTION. ALWAYS ON THE HIGHWAY, AT FIRST AT HIGH SPEEDS, NOW EVEN GOING BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT. SOMETIMES IT RESOLVES ON IT'S OWN, BUT LATELY I HAVE TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP TO MAKE THE SHAKING STOP. (WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING ON A 65MPH HIGHWAY), THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES LEFT TO RIGHT AND IS VERY LOOSE DURING THESE TIMES. I FEEL VERY UNSAFE AND IT FEELS LIKE THE WHEELS ARE GOING TO FALL OFF. THIS IS A BRAND NEW VEHICLE. IT HAPPENED 5 TIMES ON A 15 MILE TRIP TO WORK THIS MORNING AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN LATE FEBRUARY 2019.

Mileage: 6,500

STEERING GEAR HAS EXCESSIVE PLAY. NO ON-CENTER STEERING RESPONSE FOR 1-2" OF STEERING WHEEL ARC LENGTH. MAKES STRAIGHT DRIVING UNSAFE BY REDUCING CONTROL AND INCREASING THE TIME LAG TO CORRECT FOR CROSS WINDS, ROAD SURFACE, OR OTHER DRIVERS/OBSTACLES. INSPECTION HAS LED TO NOTICING ALL THE PLAY COMING FROM THE STEERING GEARBOX ITSELF. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS, HOWEVER THE MOST DANGEROUS IS BY FAR STRAIGHT HIGH-SPEED HIGHWAY DRIVING. DEALER HAS BEEN HONEST AND SAYS THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT. HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO IDENTIFY A GUARANTEED FIX BASED ON EXPERIENCE WITH OTHER CARS TO DATE.*DT *JS

THE STEERING ON THIS JEEP IS DANGEROUS. IT WONDERS ALL OVER THE ROAD. I HAVE TO KEEP BOTH HANDS ON THE WHEEL AT ALL TIME WITH A DEATH GRIP. I FEEL EXTREMELY UNSAFE DRIVING THIS JEEP. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES NOW AND IT HAS NOT IMPROVED. JEEP IS NOW TELLING ME THAT THERE IS NOTHING ELSE THEY CAN DO AND I AM JUST STUCK WITH IT.

Mileage: 100

I PICKED UP MY NEW JEEP AT THE DEALER AND WENT NOT EVEN A COUPLE BLOCKS AWAY AND NOTICED THE STEERING WAS REALLY SLOPPY. THE DEALER CALLED TO GET MY EMAIL AND I TOLD THEM ABOUT IT. THEY SAID BRING IT BACK, WHICH I DID TODAY( THE NEXT MORNING.) TOO MUCH PLAY, CONSTANT CORRECTIONS, DRIFTED. I JUST DROPPED IT OFF AND THEY SAID IT HAD A STEERING DAMPER RECALL ON THE VEHICLE. THIS IS MY 3RD JEEP WRANGLER(1999 AND 2004) WERE MY OTHER ONES AND THEY WERE FINE. JEEP NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS ASAP. IT IS NOT SAFE AND I AM NOT VERY HOPEFUL THIS RECALL WILL FIX IT.

Mileage: 98

THE STEERING IS SLOPPY WITH 2-4 INCHES OF "PLAY" IN THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN DRIVING. I HAVE HAD THE RECALL DONE FOR DAMPENER REPLACEMENT, BUT IT STILL TRIES TO "WALK" THE ROAD SIDE TO SIDE DUE TO THE SLACK IN THE STEERING. I AM TOLD THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THE ELECTRICAL ASSIST, BUT IT NEEDS ADDRESSED. I DRIVE FOR HOURS AND HAVING TO FIGHT THIS BACK AND FORTH THE ENTIRE TIME IS UNSAFE. ALSO, THE WINDSHIELDS ARE NOT SLOPED ENOUGH FOR AREAS WHERE THERE ARE MANY BUGS. THE WINDSHIELD BECOMES SO CONGESTED WITH SPLATTERED BUGS IT'S HARD TO SEE. THE WASHERS AND WIPERS CANNOT SCRAPE AWAY THE DEBRIS EITHER BECAUSE THE IMPACT IS SO HARD IS PLASTERS THEM TO THE GLASS, AND TAKES HIGH PRESSURE WATER OR VIGOROUS SCRUBBING TO REMOVE. THIS IS A POOR WINDSHIELD DESIGN FLAW THAT MOST EVERY OTHER AUTOMOBILE DOES NOT HAVE AN ISSUE WITH.

Mileage: 4,024

I WAS GOING AROUND 65 MPH ON THE FREEWAY AND I HIT A POTHOLE, MY JEEP STARTED TO "DEATH WOBBLE". IT STATED TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE AND VIBRATE ALMOST PULLING THE STEERING WHEEL OUT OF MY HAND. I SLOWED DOWN TO UNDER 45 MPH AND IT STOPPED. THE VIOLENT SHAKING LASTED FOR ABOUT 6-10 SECONDS. I JUST PURCHASED THE JEEP 2 DAYS AGO. IT IS COMPLETELY STOCK WITH THE FACTORY TIRES AND THE PRESSURE IN THEM WAS FINE. IT WAS ALSO NOT COLD, THE HIGH AT THE TIME WAS 97 DEGREES.

Mileage: 14,300

BRAND NEW VEHICLE, NOW HAS 200 MILES. FROM BEGINNING, IT TRACKS TO THE RIGHT WHEN IN MOTION. DEALER SAID ALIGNMENT IS PERFECT, THEY CROSS ROTATED TIRES, ARE IN PROCESS OF TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT, BUT I SUSPECT IT MAY BE THE ELECTRONIC ASSIST STEERING INPUTTING RIGHT STEER FOR SOME REASON. HAVE HEARD MANY COMPLAIN ABOUT STEERING BOX ISSUES WITH JEEP JL WRANGLERS, UNKNOWN IF THIS IS RELATED TO THAT.

Mileage: 35

THE STEERING WHEEL IS "LOOSE" AND REQUIRES EXCESSIVE MOVEMENT BEFORE ANY NOTICEABLE EFFECT IN VEHICLE DIRECTION. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS. VEHICLE DRIFTS/WANDERS (DOES NOT DRIVE STRAIGHT) AT FREEWAY SPEEDS (50+ MPH). VERY DIFFICULT TO STAY IN LANE ON THE FREEWAY!

Mileage: 300

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE HOME FROM DEALERSHIP AFTER PURCHASE I NOTED A DEAD SPOT IN THE STEERING OF ABOUT 3 TO 4 INCHES WHERE THERE IS NO STEERING RESPONSE TO MOVEMENT OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE VECHICLE WAS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AS IT WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO KEEP IT IN MY LANE. I HAVE WORKED WITH JEEP CARES AND HAVE OPENED 2 CASES, 58775069, 59043175 AND HAVE BEEN TO 3 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS TRYING TO GET THIS FIXED. THE 1ST 2 DEALERSHIPS DROVE THE VEHICLE ON AND STATED THERE WAS NO PROBLEM, THIS IS HOW JEEPS ARE DESIGNED. THE 3RD DEALERSHIP DROVE IT WITH ME IN THE CAR ON THE SAME TYPE OF ROADS I DRIVE (2 LANE COUNTRY ROADS WITH NO SHOULDER. THEY NOTED THAT THE ALIGNMENT WAS OFF AND RE-ALIGNED THE STEERING. THIS DID HELP WITH THE EXTEME SWING THE VEHICLE WOULD TAKE ON ITS OWN INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC OR TOWARD THE SHOULDER BUT DID NOTHING TO RESOLVE THE 3" TO 4" DEADSPOT IN THE STEERING. I WILL BE OPENING A 3RD JEEP CARES CASE THIS WEEK. THIS DEAD SPOT CAUSES WHAT I WOULD CALL "DRIVER INDUCED OSCILLATION" AS MINOR OF FINE STEERING CORRECTIONS ARE EXAGGERATED WITH THE 3" TO 4" DEADSPOT SO YOU INADVERTANTLY OVERCORRECT AND THEN HAVE TO RE-CORRECT THE OTHERWAY AGAIN THRU A 3" TO 4" DEADSPOT. THE VEHICLE IS A DANGER TO MYSELF AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. JEEP SEEMS TO BE TRYING TO AVOID THE BUYBACK OR LEMON LAW BY STATING THERE IS NO PROBLEM THE VEHCILE IS DESIGNED TO HAVE A 3" TO 4" DEAD SPOT IN THE STEERING. THE VEHICLE EXTREMELY DIFFICLUT TO KEEP IN ITS LANE WHILE DRIVING ON 2 LANE COUNTRY ROADS AT STANDARD ROAD SPEEDS OF 35 TO 50 MILES PER HOUR, WITH NO SHOULDER.

Mileage: 50

THE STEERING IS LOOSE, WHEN DRIVING ON A FREEWAY AT SPEEDS OVER 60 MPH THE STEERING IS VERY SLOPPY AND THE VEHICLE "WANDERS" INSIDE THE LANE SIDE TO SIDE AS YOU HAVE TO CONTINUALLY CORRECT IT. THIS IS UNSAFE.

2019 JEEP WRANGLER 2DR. JEEP CAN NOT HOLD A STRAIGHT LINE. REQUIRES CONSTANT CORRECTION INPUT. WHEN CORRECTING IT WILL START TO TRAVEL IN THE CORRECTED DIRECTION AND WILL CONTINUE TO TRAVEL IN THAT DIRECTION UNTIL CORRECTING IN THE OTHER DIRECTION. HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DIEALERSHIP 1X AND TOLD THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. TECHNICIAN COMMENTS ON THE PAPERWORK "VEHICLE DROVE FINE AND NOT WONDER ALL OVER THE ROAD". AFTER GETTING MINE BACK, TEST DROVE ANOTHER 2019 AND DID NOT EXPERIENCE THE SAME ISSUE. IT WAS ABLE TO HOLD A STRAIGHT LINE WITH LITTLE TO NO INPUT. HAVE DROVE OTHER NEW JEEPS THAT DID NOT HAVE THE WONDER ISSUE. NOTE THE OTHER JEEPS HAVE HAD MICHELIN OR GOODYEAR TIRES. MINE HAS BRIDGESTONE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THIS IS JUST THE WAY THEY DRIVE. I HAVE OWNED 7 JEEP WRANGLERS AND NONE HAVE DROVE LIKE THIS. MY WIFE HAS A 2018 AND DOES NOT HAVE THE WANDERING ISSUE. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS.

EXCESSIVE PLAY IN STEERING/ WANDERING ON ROAD, CONSTANTLY CORRECTING STEERING TO KEEP JEEP IN MY LANE. WHEN BETWEEN VEHICLES ON HIGHWAY OR JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD I NEED TO KEEP CORRECTING THE STEERING TO KEEP IN MY LANE. HAD A FEW CLOSE CALLS BETWEEN BIG RIGS ON HIGHWAY. I'M CONCERNED FOR MY FAMILY AND MY SAFETY DRIVING THIS NEW 2019 JEEP RUBICON 2 DOOR. THE JEEP IS ALL STOCK NO LIFT KIT. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I TOOK POSSESSION OF THE CAR ON APRIL 1ST 2019

I JUST EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE ON A HIGHWAY IN COLUMBUS OHIO. I WAS DRIVING AROUND 65 AND HIT A SMALL BUMP AND THE CAR STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY. IT DID NOT STOP AFTER ABOUT 60 SECONDS SO I PULLED OVER TO THE BERM. IT SCARED ME TO DEATH. I FELT LIKE I HAD NO CONTROL. I STARTED BACK UP AND MADE IT SAFELY TO MY DESTINATION. I PLAN TO CALL LOCAL DEALER SINCE I AM AWAY FROM WHERE I PURCHASED IT ORIGINALLY.

Mileage: 3,000

DEAD SPACE IN THE STEERING WHEEL, 2' OF PLAY IN THE WHEEL WHERE INPUT IS PUT IN AND NO RESPONSE. LOOSE STEERING AND DRIFT WHILE DRIVING. UNABLE TO MAINTAIN A STRAIGHT LINE WITHOUT CONSTANT STEERING CORRECTION. VERY NOTICEABLE AT FREEWAY SPEEDS AS THE VEHICLE WILL WANT TO DRIFT LEFT OR RIGHT IMMEDIATELY AFTER CORRECTING STEERING. CONSTANTLY HAVE TO GIVE STEERING INPUTS, SAWING AT THE WHEEL. OCCURS ALL THE TIME. MORE NOTICEABLE AT HIGHER SPEEDS. FEELS UNSAFE TO OPERATE. JEEP CLAIMS THIS IS NORMAL AND HOW THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE WETHER ON STREET OR HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE TENDS TO WANDER FROM LANE TO LANE AND FROM MIDDLE OF THE STREET TO SHOULDER WITH ALOT OF IMPUT TO THE STEERING BACK AND FORTH . BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE AND I PAID FOR AN ALIGNMENT THAT SEEMED TO DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. THE DEALERSHIP TEST DROVE IT AND SAID IT WAS NORMAL BUT I KNOW THIS NOT TO BE TRUE IT IS A SAFETY MATTER THAT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED OR IT WILL LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT.

ON 2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS, AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, MY 2019 JEEP WRANGLER JL STEERING LOCKED AND MADE IT VERY DIFFICULT/ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN IN WHICH I CAM E VERY CLOSE TO CRASHING INTO THE SIDE WALL 2X. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ON 7/24/19 AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE "WERE BOLTS LOOSE" AND WAS CAUSING THE ISSUE AND SHOULD BE FINE B/C THY TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE FOR ~40 MILES. THE STEERING LOCKED AGAIN ON 8/7/19. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN FOR THE FIX AND THEY CANNOT REPLICATE "THE CODE" AND DO NOT HAVE A FIX FOR IT. I HAVE CONTACTED JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE AND I'M NOT GETTING THE ATTENTION NEEDED FOR SUCH A CRITICAL ISSUE. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR AND LOOKING FOR A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE FROM JEEP BUT NOT RECEIVING TIMELY COOPERATION. LASTLY, ON 8/4/19, AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, MY WRANGLER PERFORMED THE DREADED "DEATH WOBBLE." THE DEALER IS CHANGING THE VEHICLE DAMPER BUT UPON MY RESEARCH, A DAMPER ONLY "MASKS" THE ISSUE AND THERE S A BIGGER ISSUE AT PLAY. FOR REFERENCE, MY VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT BRAND NEW IN MARCH 2019 AND ONLY HAS ~1,400 MILES ON IT AND HAS NEVER BEEN OFF-ROADED. LASTLY, ALL MODIFICATIONS TO THE VEHICLE ARE UNDER WARRANTY AND WERE INSTALLED BY THE DEALERSHIP (EG. 33" TIRES)

Mileage: 1,400

THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW FROM A DEALER 5 HOURS FROM MY HOME .THE DRIVE HOME INCLUDED SOME 2 LANE HIGHWAYS BUT MOSTLY INTERSTATE. CONTROLLING THE JEEP AND KEEPING IT ON THE ROAD HOME WAS AN EXHAUSTING AND CONCENTRATED EFFORT. THE STEERING WAS EVERYWHERE AND I'M SURE I LOOKED LIKE A DRUNK DRIVER TO MOST PEOPLE. TODAY I HAVE DRIVEN THE JEEP TO MY LOCAL DEALER ONLY TO BE TOLD BY THE FEMALE SERVICE WRITER THAT THE JEEP WILL LEARN MY DRIVING AFTER ABOUT 1000 MILES .SHE STATED SHE KNOWS THIS BECAUSE SHE HAS THIS SAME STYLE JEEP. THERE IS NO WAY THIS IS NORMAL STEERING .

Mileage: 50

VERY LOOSE STEERING. IT APPEARS A RECALL HAS BEEN COMPLETED ON MY VEHICLE (CHRYSLER V41) TO FIX THIS ISSUE, BUT THE ISSUE IS STILL EVIDENT. STEERING WHEEL HAS TOO MUCH PLAY IN IT WHEN DRIVING, ESPECIALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

WE ORDERED A BRAND NEW 2019 WRANGLER SAHARA TO OUR LIKING. I WAS SO EXCITED TO DRIVE IT HOME FROM OUR DEALERSHIP ABOUT AN HOUR AWAY FROM OUR HOME! THAT WAS UNTIL I ACTUALLY STARTED DRIVING IT . THERE IS A BIG DEAD SPOT IN THE STEERING AS YOU AND JEEP ALREADY HAVE BEEN MADE AWARE! IT'S ALL OVER BLOGS AND YOUR SITE. IT WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE ON THE HIGHWAY, ACTUALLY WHITE KNUCKLED IT ALL THE WAY HOME. I PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE SIMPLY DROVE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND LEFT IT THERE. I HAD THE SERVICE MANAGER COME AND PICK IT UP AT MY HOUSE AS I WAS NOT WILLING TO DRIVE IT BACK TO THEM FOR FEAR OF CRASHING OR CAUSING AN EXTREMELY HORRIFIC ACCIDENT! THEY DID COME AND GET THE JEEP AND DROVE IT BACK , HOWEVER THEY HIT BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC AND DID NOT HAVE THE CHANCE TO EXPERIENCE THE UNSAFE STEERING ISSUE. THEY DID CHANGE THE FRONT STEERING DAMPER AND CLAIMED THAT NO SHIMMY PRESENT AFTER THEIR TEST DRIVE. NOT POSSIBLE! I AM NOT BLAMING FITZPATRICK'S OF ANSONIA FOR THIS I AM HOLDING JEEP SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE. I GUESS MY QUESTION TO YOU IS WHEN WILL JEEP BE HELD RESPONSIBLE TO REMOVE THESE VEHICLES FROM THE STREETS. I FEEL THAT A $53K JEEP SHOULDN'T BE SCARY TO DRIVE. I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE TO TO USE THIS VEHICLE AS I DON'T HAVE A SPARE AS I'M SURE THAT MOST DON'T! I FILLED OUT A SURVEY THAT JEEP SENT ME ASKING FOR A PHONE CALL FOR THIS MATTER AND HAVE YET TO HEAR BACK FROM THEM. PLEASE HELP!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING, THE CONTACT HEARD A LOUD POPPING NOISE AND THE ENTIRE CONSOLE SCREEN FAILED. THE CONTACT STOPPED AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, BUT THE ENTIRE CONSOLE SCREEN STILL FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE CONTACT WAS STILL ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT CALLED CHERRY HILL DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (1708 W, NJ-70, CHERRY HILL, NJ 08002, (856) 471-1058) AND THEY ASKED WHEN SHE COULD BRING IN THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER THE VEHICLE BEING PARKED FOR TWO DAYS AT AN AIRPORT LOT, THE VEHICLE WAS LATER STARTED AND THE ENTIRE CONSOLE SCREEN FAILED AND THE POWER STEERING SEIZED. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE VEERED OFF THE ROAD AND CRASHED INTO A TELEPHONE POLE. THE CONTACT'S SON WAS MEDICALLY CHECKED OUT WITH AN ICE PACK TO THE FACE BUT NO AMBULANCE SERVICES WERE NEEDED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE WAS DAMAGED AND IT WAS TOWED WITH THE REAR WHEELS BEING LOCKED MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO TOW TO A TOW YARD. THE MANUFACTURER FILED A CASE AND WOULD HAVE AN INVESTIGATOR INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER STATED IT WOULD TAKE TWO TO FOUR WEEKS UNTIL THEY HAVE SOME FINDINGS ON THE ISSUE AND HAD NOT OFFERED A LOANER VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 848.

Mileage: 848

THE STEERING IS VERY LOOSE (LOTS OF PLAY), WANDERS BACK AND FORTH IN LANE AND IS OVERLY SENSITIVE TO INPUT - CONSTANTLY DARTING BACK AND FORTH AS IF ON ICE. THIS OCCURS MOST WHEN ON ROUGH / WET PAVEMENT, ON CURVES IN CONSTRUCTION ZONES, WHEN LARGE TRUCKS PASS, ON WINDY DAYS - IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL ABOVE 40 MPH. DEALER HAS BEEN RESPONSIVE AND HELPFUL - WE HAVE REPLACED TRACK BAR, REPLACED TIE ROD BUSHINGS, UPDATED STEERING CONTROL MODULE, ADJUSTED ALIGNMENT, REDUCED AIR PRESSURE IN TIRES - ALL OF WHICH HAS HELPED REDUCE WANDER AND IMPROVE CONTROL. BUT, STILL HAS SOME WANDER AND IS VERY SENSITIVE. REPLACED STEERING STABILIZER WITH CUSTOM ADJUSTABLE STABILIZER, WHICH I EXPECT WILL ELIMINATE WANDER AND TIGHTEN / FIRM STEERING. BUT, I BELIEVE PROBLEM IS DEFECTIVE STEERING GEAR / BOX, AND SETTINGS IN STEERING CONTROL MODULE - WHICH SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED. NEEDS FIRMER, TIGHTER STEERING WITH LESS PLAY. VEHICLE IS UNSAFE, STEERING ISSUE IS RESOLVED. *DT CONSUMER STATED AT THIS POINT IT WILL BE UP TO THE MFR TO SEE IF THEY CAN ELIMINATE IT WITH UPGRADED STEERING BOX AND STEERING CONTROL. PENDING SOME ACTION LIKE THAT, FOR WHICH I'M NOT GOING TO PRESS THE DEALER / MFR, "IT IS WHAT IT IS" AND WE WILL JUST HAVE TO TAKE EXTRA CARE IN DRIVING IT IN CONSTRUCTION ZONES, HEAVY TRAFFIC, ROUGH PAVEMENT, AND STRONG WINDS.*JB

ST. CHARLES CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM SOLD ME A BRAND NEW CAR AND THEN I DISCOVERED THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT, ISSUED A MONTH BEFORE PURCHASE. I WAS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE WANDERING AND LOOSE STEERING WHEEL WITH AT LEAST 2 INCHES OF GIVE. DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN STRAIGHT DRIVING. CONSTANT STEERING CORRECTION NEEDED. IT IS IN FOR THE RECALL REPAIR TODAY, 13 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE. DEALER DID NOT TAKE CARE OF THIS RECALL NOR DID THEY INFORM ME OF IT WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE.

Mileage: 16

PURCHASED VECHILE NEW WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT SPEEDS 50 MPH AND OVER, THERE IS TO MUCH PLAY IN THE STEERING. YOU HAVE TO CONSTANTLY CORRECT THE STEERING, TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID THEY FOUND THE ALIGNMENT PIN UPSIDE DOWN AND CORRECTED. DROVE THE VECHILE HOME. BUT ONCE YOU GET ON THE HIGHWAY AT SPEEDS OVER 50 MPH IT STILL DOES THE SAME THING. VECHILE ONLY HAS 150 MILES ON IT. HAVE MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE FORWARD, THE STEERING WHEEL HAS SLOP IN IT. I CANNOT KEEP IT STRAIGHT. I'M CONSTANTLY HAVING TO CORRECT THE WHEEL. I HAVE RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES AND THEY ARE NOT FIXING IT. THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW AND NOW HAS 1300 MILES ON IT. IT IS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. IT FEELS LIKE DRIVING AN OLD FARM TRACTOR.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE AFTER DRIVING OVER A BUMPY ROAD AT ABOUT 55 MPH. IN ADDITION, I HAVE EXPERIENCED WHAT I CALL WHEEL HOP WHEN HITTING VARIOUS BUMPS IN THE ROAD. I THOUGHT A MIGHT LOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR WHEN IT STARTED TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY BUT SLOWED DOWN AND PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I AM TAKING IT TO THE DEALER TOMORROW (JULY 18, 2019)

WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 7/2019. IT WAS A TRANSFER FROM ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND WE DID NOT TEST DRIVE THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE. WE HAVE TEST DRIVEN THE SAME MODEL BEFORE AND HAD NO ISSUES. ON OUR WAY HOME, WE NOTICED THAT THE CAR HAS VERY LOOSE STEERING. THERE IS "GIVE" APPROXIMATELY 2 INCHES TO EITHER SIDE AND THE VEHICLE IS DIFFICULT TO KEEP IN LANE. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE JEEP SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THEY CLAIM THE PCM IS UP TO DATE AND THE STABILIZERS ARE NEW. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THIS VEHICLE, IN MY OPINION, WITH THE LOOSE STEERING IS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. SEARCH THROUGH MULTIPLE JEEP WRANGLER JL FOURMS SHOW MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE.

Mileage: 20

SEVERE, EXHAUSTING AND NEAR CONSTANT UNSAFE STEERING TO KEEP JEEP IN DRIVING LANE. ESPECIALLY, AT HIGHWAY SPEED 50MPH OR ABOVE. THERE IS A SERIOUS UNSAFE PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING ON MY 2019 JEEP WRANGLER JL UNLIMITED RUBICON! I WAS IN FEAR OF CRASHING DUE TO THE NEED TO CONSTANTLY CORRECT THE VAGUE STEERING. THE 2019 WRANGLER DRIFTS AND SEEMS TO OVER-CORRECT BOTH TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT. IT FEELS LIKE I'M ON A ROCKING BOAT.

Mileage: 300

THE 2019 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON HAS LOOSE STEERING WHICH CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO WANDER LEFT OR RIGHT WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT IN BOTH CITY AND INTERSTATE SCENARIOS. IT REQUIRES CONSTANT CORRECTION AND IF YOU HIT A BIG GUST OF WIND, IT'S VERY HARD TO CONTROL. I'VE HAD IT FOR JUST OVER 1 WEEK AND HAS APPROXIMATELY 800 MILES. I'VE LOWERED THE PSI IN ALL TIRES TO THE DOCUMENTED 37 PSI AND HAD THE STEERING WHEEL DAMPENER RECALL COMPLETED, BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I'VE TAKEN IT INTO A JEEP AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER AND THEY ADJUSTED THE TOE, BUT SAID THAT THE VEHICLE IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED EVEN WITH APPROXIMATELY 2" OF PLAY IN THE STEERING TO BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT AFTER ALL ADJUSTMENTS. WE TEST DROVE OTHER 2019 WRANGLERS ON THE LOT WHICH EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY CONTINUE TO CLAIM THIS IS A JEEP THING, BUT OTHERS HAVE REPORTED NO PROBLEMS WITH THEIR STEERING AND HAVE VIDEOS ONLINE SHOWING THEY ARE NOT CONSTANTLY CORRECTING. I ASKED THEM TO REPLACE THE TRACK BAR, DRAG LINKS, AND ENSURE ALL STEERING COMPONENTS ARE TIGHT AND ON SPEC, BUT THEY WILL NOT REPLACE ANY PARTS UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE THEY SAID IT WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THEY WILL REPLACE THE PARTS IF I PAY OUT OF POCKET.

Mileage: 110

2019 WRANGLER JL PURCHASED ON APRIL 30. ORDERED THE VEHICLE AND PICKED IT UP AT THE DEALERSHIP 220 MILES FROM HOME AND TRAILERED IT HOME. DID NOT TEST DRIVE IT AT THE DEALERSHIP. IMMEDIATELY UPON DRIVING, FOUND THE STEERING TO BE A PROBLEM. VEHICLE WANDERS ALL OVER THE ROAD. NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP IT IN THE LANE OF TRAVEL AT SPEEDS OVER 45. THIS IS KEEPING US FROM DRIVING IT REGULARLY AND ONLY USE IT WHEN MAKING SHORT TRIPS IN TOWN (35 MPH AND BELOW). PAID NEARLY $48K FOR THIS VEHICLE. CALLED DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM BEFORE. THIS VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS AND I AM STUCK WITH IT FOR NOW WITH NO OPTION. HOPEFULLY, A RECALL TAKES PLACE.

STEERING HAS A DEAD SPOT IN THE WHEEL WITH ABOUT 2 INCHES OF PLAY. CONSTANTLY HAVE TO MAKE CORRECTIONS. VERY HARD TO STAY ON ROAD

Mileage: 300

WRANGLER SAHARA HAS APPX 3" OF PLAY IN THE STEERING EACH SIDE OF CENTER FROM SIDE TO SIDE BEFORE IT ENGAGES WHEEL MOVEMENT WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS. EVEN AT LOW SPEEDS OF 30 MPH YOU HAVE TO CONSTANTLY FIGHT AND CORRECT THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT/RIGHT BETWEEN THE 10 O'CLOCK AND 2 O'CLOCK HAND POSITION TO KEEP THE CAR STRAIGHT IN THE LANE OR IT WANDERS OUT OF LANE. PROBLEM IS WORSE AT 55 MPH+ ON A HIGHWAY AND FEELS UNSAFE TO DRIVE ABOVE 55 MPH. IT LOOKS AND FEELS LIKE I AM WEAVING IN THE LANE SIDE TO SIDE DOWN THE STREET. I AM WAITING TO GET PULLED OVER BY THE POLICE FOR SUSPICION OF DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE. VEHICLE IS BRAND NEW WITH ONLY 250 MILES ON ODOMETER. I HAVE OWNED OTHER JEEPS AND OWN AN 11 YEAR OLD WRANGLER THAT DOES NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE. IN 30+ YEARS OF DRIVING EVERY VEHICLE YOU CAN IMAGINE, I HAVE NEVER HAD A CAR WITH STEERING LIKE THIS. YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO CONSTANTLY MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL BACK AND FORTH TO SUCH A DEGREE TO MAINTAIN LANE POSITION. COMPLETELY UNSAFE. AN INVESTIGATION NEEDS TO STARTED SO JEEP WILL CORRECT THIS AND NOT GIVE PEOPLE THE RUN AROUND AT THE DEALER LIKE OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING.

Mileage: 250

EXCESSIVE UNSAFE STEERING, ESPECIALLY, AT HIGHWAY SPEED 50MPH OR ABOVE. UNABLE TO SAFELY KEEP JEEP IN DRIVING LANE AT 50MPH OR ABOVE. I OWNED A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER WITHOUT STEERING ISSUES, SO THE 'IT'S A JEEP THING' ARGUMENT DOESN'T FLY WITH ME; THERE IS A SERIOUS UNSAFE PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING ON MY 2019 JEEP WRANGLER JL UNLIMITED! I WAS DRIVING ON THE PENNSYLVANIA TURNPIKE (LEGAL POSTED SPEED LIMIT 70MPH), I WAS ONLY ABLE TO DRIVE 55MPH SAFELY AND WAS FORCED TO EXIT AT THE FIRST AVAILABLE EXIT BECAUSE I WAS IN FEAR OF CRASHING DUE TO THE NEED TO CONSTANTLY CORRECT THE VAGUE STEERING. HINDSIGHT, I SHOULD HAVE KEPT MY 2016 WRANGLER! THE 2019 WRANGLER DRIFTS TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT, ESPECIALLY, NOTICEABLE AT 55MPH OR ABOVE. I AM A SEASONED DRIVER AND HAVE DRIVEN MANY DIFFERENT MAKES AND MODELS OF CARS AND MOTORCYCLES; I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED A TOTAL LACK OF TRUST IN A VEHICLE, UNTIL THIS 2019 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED.

Mileage: 1,549

LOOSE STEERING, LOTS OF PLAY, WANDERING ALL OVER THE ROAD. TOOK THE JEEP BACK ONE WEEK AFTER I BOUGHT HER, DEALER LOOKED AT HER, ACKNOWLEDGED IT WAS DANGEROUS AND FORCED ME INTO A LOANER BECAUSE OF THE DANGER AND WOULDN'T LET ME TAKE TEH JEEP HOME. EVENTUALLY CHANGED THE POWER STEERING BOX. I PICKED IT UP AND IT STILL HAD EXCESSIVE PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND WAS WANDERING ALL OVER THE ROAD AND NEEDED CONSTANT CORRECTION. CALLED DEALER THEY CLAIMED IT WAS DRIVEN BY THE SHOP FOREMAN AND WAS NOW AS INTENDED. WHEN STATIONARY YOU CAN SEE THE EXCESSIVE PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL. WHEN IN MOTION, ESPECIALLY ON HIGHWAYS THE EXCESSIVE PLAY BECOMES SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS WHEN THE VEHICLE WANDERS BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO MAKE SHARP ADJUSTMENTS FAST WITH A NON RESPONSIVE STEERING WHEEL.

Mileage: 200

LOOSE STEERING, LOTS OF PLAY ON CENTER, VERY HARD TO STEER ON BACK ROADS, CONSTANT ADJUSTMENT REQUIRED TO STAY STRAIGHT. 3 INCHES OF PLAY IN EACH DIRECTION WITH NO MOVEMENT OF VEHICLE. NOT SAFE TO OPERATE ON 2 LANE ROADS

MY STEERING WHEEL WAS NOT CENTERED SINCE I FIRST GOT THE CAR WHICH WAS ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO. IT HAS ALREADY BEEN IN SERVICE 3 TIMES. BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR 4 DAYS OUT OF THE 3 WEEKS. THEY DID THE ALIGNMENT TWICE AND IT DID NOT SOLVED. THE STEERING WHEELS ALSO WAUNDERS AND DOES NOT TRACK PROPERLY. IT IS VERY SCARY DRIVING ON THE HIGH WAY WHILE TRYING TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE CAR TO STAY INSIDE THE LANES. DEFINITELY A DEAD SPOT AND THE STEERING WHEEL DOES NOT RESPONSE WELL. MY CAR IS STILL AT THE DEALERSHIP. BRAND NEW CAR AND NO SOLUTION AT THE MOMENT. ALSO THE RADIATOR FAN IS VERY LOUD AND UNUSUAL BUT I WAS JUST TOLD IT IS COMMON. ALSO MY AUTOMATIC ENGINE SHUT OFF DOES NOT WORK AT TIMES.

(IN MOTION). AS IN MANY FORUMS AND YOUTUBE VIDEOS, THE STEERING WHEEL OF MY CAR FEELS SHAKING, WOBBLE OR LOOSE IN THE HIGH-WAYS OR ABOVE 30 MPH. THIS SITUATION IS MAKING IT HARD TO KEEP THE VEHICLE GOING STRAIGHT ON THE ROADS. BEGINNER DRIVERS COULD GET NERVOUS WITH THIS FEELING AND CAUSE ACCIDENTS, AS WELL; FOR THE NORMAL DRIVERS TO KEEP THE CAR STRAIGHT MUST CONSTANTLY (BEYOND OF CURRENT STANDARDS) GIVE INPUTS TO THE STEERING WHEEL, GETTING TIRED SOONER COMPERING WITH OTHER DRIVERS, THE JEEP IS INCREASING THE PROBABILITY OF ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS DUE IS LIKE BEING FIGHTING AGAINST THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE ONLY ANSWER FROM JEEP IS "THE CAR IS LIKE THAT" WHICH IS REALLY DANGEROUS.

SINCE VEHICLE WAS NEW, BOUGHT IN JUNE OF 2019 THE VEHICLE WANDERS ON THE HIGHWAY NEEDING CONSTANT CORRECTION. THE STEERING HAS A VERY LOOSE FEELING. DEALER AND FCA CALLS IT "OPERATING AS INTENDED"

Mileage: 250

JEEP HAS DEAD SPOT IN STEERING, ESPECIALLY AT HIGH SPEEDS WHICH MAKES IT WANDER ALL OVER THE ROAD. SUSPENSION AND LINKAGE SEEMS TIGHT SO IT SEEMS LIKE A ELECTRIC STEERING PROGRAMMING/CALIBRATION ISSUE. DEALER TELLS ME NOTHING IS WRONG. THEY ARE WRONG!

2019 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED MOAB JL - NO MODIFICATIONS, ALL STOCK, THE STEERING SEVERELY WANDERS. NOTICED AFTER, ABOUT 1500 MILES THE JEEP WILL DRIFT OR WANDER INTO OTHER LANES FOR NO APPARENT REASON. SOME TIME THE JEEP WOULD DRIVE STRAIGHT, OTHER TIMES NOT SO MUCH. THE VEHICLE IS HARD TO KEEP STRAIGHT WITH IN A SINGLE LANE. TOOK THE JEEP TO MY LOCAL DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG, EVEN WITH ALL THE JEEP TSB'S CONCERNED THAT COULD LOSE CONTROL OF VEHICLE AS IS WANDERS INTO OTHER LANES. NOTE: I HAD A 2017 JEEP UNLIMITED JK WITH NO STEERING ISSUES.

Mileage: 1,500

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.

STEERING WANDERS, FLOATS, CANNOT HOLD JEEP IN STRAIGHT LINE. VERY LOOSE STEERING. 2ND PROBLEM- MOTOR OR TRANSMISSION SURGES AND LURCHES FORWARD AT LOW RPM'S AND LOW SPEEDS CAUSING VEHICLE TO JUMP OR LURCH FORWARD

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE VEERED LEFT AND RIGHT WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LUCAS-SMITH CHRYSLER CENTER (636-933-5000, LOCATED AT 1600 PARKWAY W, FESTUS, MO 63028) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE PERFORMED AS DESIGNED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 700.

STEERING ISSUES CAUSED BY WEAK STEERING COMPONENTS AND POOR SUSPENSION GEOMETRY. DEATH WOBBLE AND JUMPY, LOOSE, WANDERING STEERING FROM FACTORY. BROUGHT INTO DEALER MAY FOR UPDATED OEM TRACKBAR WITH STIFFER BUSHING UPDATE AND UPDATED STEERING STABILIZER. THIS HAS TIGHTENED STEERING SOMEWHAT AND REDUCED THE AMPLITUDE OF DEATH WOBBLE BUT HAS NOT ELIMINATED IT. JEEP STILL WANDERS AND JUMPS ONTO ADJACENT LANES WHEN HITTING EXPANSION JOINT ON FREEWAY. DEALER SERVICE MANAGER REFUSES TO CONSIDER ALTERNATIVE FIXES THAT HAVE BEEN SHOWN TO HAVE POSITIVE RESULTS FOR OTHERS. WIND NOISE FROM A PILLAR AND FREEDOM TOP. DEALER NOTED BUT FAILED TO FIX INADEQUATE DEFROSTER CHANNELING RESULTS IN THE DEFROSTER ONLY CLEARING THE CENTER OF WINDSHIELD. DRIVER CANNOT SEE OUT OF WI SHIELD. DESIGN FLAW SINCE THIS IS ON ALL 2018 AND 2019 JL. DEALER REFUSES TO FIX FRAGILE WINDSHIELD GLASS. SERVICE MANAGER AGER REFUSES TO CONSIDER THIS AN ISSUE EVE. THOUGH 1000S HAVE LOST THEIR WINDSHIELD AND HAVE BROKEN NUMEROUS ONES IN SHORT ABOUT TS OF TIME TOO SHORT LOWER CONTROL ARMCOUNTRY OL ARMS IN NOT ENOUGH CASTER AND LACK OF A CASTER ADJUSTMENT RESULTS IN POOR STEERING. ALL ABOVE ITEMS OCCUR WHEN JEEP IS IN MOTION AND REPRESENTS TS A HAZARD ON THE ROAD. *DT

THE STEERING IS LOOSE. OVER 1 INCH OF PLAY IN STEERING DRIFTS TO LEFT AND RIGHT AND UNABLE TO CONTROL AT ANY SPEED. CONSTANTLY HAVE TO FIGHT THE WHEEL. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. $52,000 TO REMAIN IN THE DEALERSHIP REPAIR SHOP IS PATHETIC. I TOOK MINE BACK AFTER 3 DAYS AND NOW I AM FIGHTING AND FILING LEMON LAW. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP CHRYSLER TOLD THEM NOT TO FIX IT UNTIL THEY DETERMINED IF A RECALL WOULD BE SENT OUT, BUT THEY KNEW THERE WAS A PROBLEM.

STEERING AT SPEEDS ABOVE 25 MPH WITH THIS VEHICLE YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THERE'S TOO MUCH PLAY IN THE STEERING, REQUIRING CONSTANT CORRECTIONS ESPECIALLY ON THE FREEWAY. DRIFTING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT TRYING TO KEEP THE VEHICLE BETWEEN LANES ON THE ROADS/FREEWAYS CAN TO LEAD TO DRIVERS FATIGUE; WHICH COULD LEAD TO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

Mileage: 20

STEERING ON OUR NEW JEEP WRANGLER IS ALL OVER THE PLACE. YOU CONSTANTLY HAVE TO CORRECT AS THE CAR MOVES FROM SIDE TO SIDE CAUSING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND THE APPEARANCE YOU ARE AN IMPAIRED DRIVER. IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE THIS CAR AND IT IS BRAND NEW.

Mileage: 56

THE STEERING ON A BRAND NEW 2019 JEEP WRANGLER JL WITH LESS THAN 100 MILES HAS VERY LOOSE STEERING WITH A DEAD SPOT AT THE TOP. IT IS EXTREMELY CHALLENGING TO MAINTAIN A LANE WHEN DRIVING, ESPECIALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEED REQUIRING CONSTANT INPUT FROM THE DRIVER. UNDER HARD BRAKING THE VEHICLE WILL PULL TO THE RIGHT. THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT SUPPOSEDLY PERFORMED A 4-WHEEL ALIGNMENT PRIOR TO ME PURCHASING THE VEHICLE AFTER MY INITIAL COMPLIANT DURING TEST DRIVING. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

Mileage: 53

MY BRAND NEW 2019 2-DR. JEEP WRANGLER JL HAS A SERIOUS STEERING PROBLEM. AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, ESPECIALLY ABOVE 50MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL NEEDS CONSTANT SMALL ADJUSTMENTS TO KEEP THE VEHICLE IN ITS LANE. BOTH I AND MY WIFE FIND IT DIFFICULT TO KEEP THE VEHICLE ON TRACK IN NORMAL HIGHWAY DRIVING CONDITIONS. WE FEEL THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. THE SLIGHTEST DISTRACTION OF THE DRIVER'S ATTENTION FROM THE CONSTANT NEED FOR SMALL STEERING CORRECTIONS COULD AND WILL EVENTUALLY RESULT IN THE VEHICLE WANDERING OUT OF ITS LANE INTO AN ADJACENT LANE, CAUSING A HIGH-SPEED ACCIDENT. UNFORTUNATELY, A CURSORY INVESTIGATION OF SUCH AN ACCIDENT WOULD PROBABLY AND UNJUSTIFIABLY RESULT IN A FINDING OF DRIVER INATTENTIVENESS, COMPLETELY OVERLOOKING THE UNDERLYING MECHANICAL CAUSE. OUR DEALERSHIP SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE STATES THAT HE IS UNAWARE OF THIS PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES, EVEN THOUGH THE INTERNET IS FLOODED WITH COMPLAINTS AND ANECDOTAL ACCOUNTS OF THIS PROBLEM WITH THE 2018 AND 2019 WRANGLER JL'S. THE MANUFACTURER, FIAT CHRYSLER, HAS YET TO PROVIDE DEFINITIVE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OR REMEDY FOR THIS PROBLEM. GIVEN THE SERIOUSNESS OF A STEERING MALFUNCTION IN THE 2018 AND 2019 WRANGLER JL VEHICLES, AND THE PROBABILITY OF ITS CAUSING OR HAVING CAUSED SERIOUS ACCIDENTS, WE SINCERELY HOPE THE NHTSA WILL ENGAGE FIAT CHRYSLER TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM AT THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE TIME. *TR

STEERING WANDERS AND HAS WAY TOO MUCH PLAY CAUSING THE JEEP TO DRIFT TO ONE SIDE OF THE LANE OR THE OTHER AND IS VERY SLOW TO RESPOND TO YOUR EFFORTS TO CORRECT THE DRIFT. DANGEROUS.

EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO KEEP THE VEHICLE FROM WANDERING, ESPECIALLY AT SPEEDS 65MPH AND ABOVE. THERE IS EXCESSIVE PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL, AND THE VEHICLE WANDERS TO THE RIGHT WHEN LETTING GO OF THE STEERING WHEEL, AT ANY SPEED. TOOK THE BRAND NEW VEHICLE TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT, WHERE THEY PERFORMED AN ALIGNMENT, AND THE ISSUE REMAINS EXACTLY THE SAME.

PURCHASED A 2019 WRANGLER UNLIMITED FOR OVER $40,000 ON MAY 4, 2019. IMMEDIATELY NOTICED AN ISSUE WITH STEERING. IT SWAYS LEFT TO RIGHT WHEN DRIVING STRAIGHT AND IT'S EXHAUSTING TO KEEP THE CAR IN THE LANE. BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AT AROUND 100 MILES AND THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. I ASKED THE TECH TO TAKE MINE AND ONE ON THE LOT FOR A TEST DRIVE WHICH HE DID. HE IMMEDIATELY SAW THE ISSUE. HE SEARCHED FOR A FIX AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A PART HE COULD TRY TO REPLACE TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE (TRACK BAR). I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK AT 212 MILES AND THEY DID THE WORK. HE SAID THAT'S BASICALLY ALL THEY COULD DO AND HOPEFULLY IT FIXED IT. WELL IT DIDN'T FIX IT AT ALL. IT'S STILL EXHAUSTING TO DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE YOU CAN'T KEEP IT IN THE LANE. NOW WHEN I DRIVE STRAIGHT, THE STEERING WHEEL IS CROOKED AND FEELS LIKE IT'S SWAYING LEFT TO RIGHT WORSE. I AM HONESTLY NOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS CAR FAR AWAY FROM MY HOME OR ON A HIGHWAY BECAUSE I MAY HURT SOME. I HAVE HAD JEEPS MY WHOLE LIFE AND MY LAST TWO 2010 AND 2011 DROVE PERFECT AND THE STEERING WAS TIGHT AS CAN BE. WHEN YOU DROVE STRAIGHT THE CAR JUST WENT STRAIGHT. I AM GOING TO CONTACT MY DEALER AGAIN TO SEE IF JEEP HAS RELEASED ANYTHING ON THIS ISSUE. I SEE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS HERE SO I KNOW IT'S NOT ME AND I FEEL THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE SAFETY ISSUE FOR BOTH ME AS A DRIVER AND ANYONE AROUND.

Mileage: 13

STEERING HAS TOO MUCH PLAY WHILE DRIVING. CONSTANT MOVEMENT OF THE STEERING WHEEL TO MAINTAIN POSITION WITH MY LANE. I'VE LOOKED ON LINE AND HAVE READ MANY JEEP OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. THERE MAY HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE AT THE FACTORY WHERE THE COMPUTER WAS PROGRAMMED FOR A 2 DOOR JEEP VICE THE 4 DOOR JEEP. THIS ISSUE TAKES PLACE ON SIDE STREETS AS WELL AS HIGHWAY, BUT IS MORE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

Mileage: 750

THE STEERING WANDERS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO MAINTAIN A STRAIGHT LINE WHILE DRIVING WITH OUT CONTINUOUS DRIVER INPUT. THERE SEEMS TO BE A MOMENTARY LAG FROM THE INPUT TO THE STEERING WHEEL BEFORE THE VEHICLE CHANGES DIRECTION. WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE IS ALWAYS MOVING SLIGHTLY TO ONE SIDE, AND WHEN SUFFICIENT CORRECTION IS MADE, THE VEHICLE IS WANDERING TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE. I HAVE OWNED MY VEHICLE FOR ONE MONTH. I INITIALLY BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE TRACK BAR. THIS DID NOT SOLVE THE ISSUE.

Mileage: 120

EXCESS PLAY IN STEERING WHILE DRIVING. THE EXCESS PLAY GETS WORSE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND REQUIRES CONSTANT SMALL CORRECTIONS IN THE STEERING IN ORDER TO STAY IN YOUR LANE. THIS "WANDERING" OF THE VEHICLE GETS DANGEROUS AS YOUR ARE CONSTANTLY TRYING TO KEEP THE VEHICLE FROM WANDERING INTO OTHER LANES. NEEDLES TO SAY, IT IS ALSO EXHAUSTING ON TRIPS.

Mileage: 1,500

I HAVE 2019 JEEP WRANGLER AND SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE STEERING YOU CAN'T KEEP IT IN THE LANE. YOU ARE ALWAYS CORRECTING YOUR STEERING TO KEEP IT GOING STRAIGHT. I HAVE HAD 2 OTHER WRANGLERS AND NONE OF THEM DROVE LIKE THIS. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY KEEP TELLING NOTHING IS WRONG. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS JEEP. THIS HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AT ANY SPEED BUT IS MORE NOTICEABLE WHEN YOU ARE GOING 50MPH ON ANY ROAD TYPE.

EXCESS PLAY IN STEERING WHILE DRIVING. THE EXCESS PLAY GETS WORSE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND REQUIRES CONSTANT SMALL CORRECTIONS IN THE STEERING IN ORDER TO STAY IN YOUR LANE. THIS "WANDERING" OF THE VEHICLE GETS DANGEROUS AS YOUR ARE CONSTANTLY TRYING TO KEEP THE VEHICLE FROM WANDERING INTO OTHER LANES. NEEDLES TO SAY, IT IS ALSO EXHAUSTING ON TRIPS. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY THE MANUFACTURE HOWEVER IS NOT AFFECTING ALL OF THE WRANGLES AS SOME OF THEM HAVE NO STEERING ISSUES WHATSOEVER. MOST DEALERSHIPS WILL TELL YOU THAT THE VEHICLE DRIVES AS DESIGNED, HOWEVER, THIS IS MY 4TH WRANGLER AND I HAVE NEVER FELT THIS PLAY IN STEERING BEFORE. I HAVE TEST DRIVEN SIX WRANGLERS IN 2019 AND SOME DRIVE PERFECT, SO I KNOW THE VEHICLE CAN DRIVE MUCH BETTER AND THE "LOOSE" STEERING IS NOT DRIVING AS DESIGNED. IF IT IS, JEEP HAS A REAL PROBLEM ON THEIR HANDS AS THIS WILL CAUSE ACCIDENTS.

Mileage: 15

STEERING IS VERY LOOSE AND REQUIRES CONSTANT CORRECTION. I BOUGHT THIS ON 4/24/2019 BRAND NEW. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT STEERS LEFT OR RIGHT ON ITS OWN WITHOUT DRIVER INPUT. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE DIES. THIS IS NOT A "JEEP THING". IT'S NOT NORMAL. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. IT SHOULD NOT BE ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE LANES ON ITS OWN.

STEERING FEELS LOOSE WHEN DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. CAR WANDERS ON THE ROAD AND REQUIRES CONSTANT STEERING INPUT TO STAY IN THE LANE. FEELS LIKE I AM DRIVING AN OLD TOY GO-CART, WITH A DEAD SPOT IN THE STEERING. THERE IS SO MUCH PLAY THAT THE STEERING WHEEL CAN BE TURNED ~10 DEGREES WITH NO CHANGE. RESEARCHED THAT THIS IS A CHRONIC PROBLEM WITH 2018 AND 2019 JEEP WRANGLERS. JEEP SERVICE STATES THAT THE PROBLEM CAN BE FIXED WITH A NEW TRACK BAR, BUT THE DEALERS ARE ALLOWED TO ONLY ORDER ONE PART PER WEEK. MY DEALER STATED THAT HE CANNOT ORDER THE PART FOR ANOTHER 4 DAYS! SINCE WHEN CAN A MANUFACTURER RATION PARTS THAT ARE CRITICAL FOR VEHICLE SAFETY?!

Mileage: 100

VEHICLE STEERING IS EXTREMELY HARD TO KEEP VEHICLE IN A STRAIGHT LINE. ESPECIALLY DIFFICULT AT HIGHER SPEEDS, 60+. YOU ARE CONSTANTLY FIGHTING THE VEHICLE. SHOULD YOU LOOK AWAY JUST FOR A SECOND YOU FIND YOURSELF VEERING TO ONE SIDE OR ANOTHER. VERY UNSAFE IN MY OPINION. YOU MUST BE EXTREMELY VIGILANT AT ALL TIMES. LESS THAN 300 MILES ON MY VEHICLE. I WILL BE TAKING IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE WHAT IS WRONG. SEARCHING JEEP FORUMS THIS APPEARS TO BE A BIG PROBLEM WITH OTHER JEEP OWNERS AND NOTHING IS BEING ADDRESS BY JEEP. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE ON 04/02/2019.

WHILE DRIVING 3 TIMES IN 229 MILES THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM HAS SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. NOT STEERING EASILY AT ALL. NO LIGHTS. NO WARNINGS. NO ALARMS. NO ERRORS. ALL THREE TIMES IT JUST CAME BACK ON 1/4 TO 2 MILES LATER.

Mileage: 229

WANDERING LOOSE DEAD STEERING, BRAND NEW VEHICLE WITH ONLY 176 MILES. THE VEHICLE WANDERS AS YOU DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD, TRYING TO STAY IN A STRAIGHT LINE REQUIRES MUCH VIGILANCE AND ATTENTION, IF YOU LOOK DOWN TO ADJUST YOUR TEMPERATURE OR ADJUST THE RADIO, THE VEHICLE WILL VEER TOWARDS ANOTHER LANE OF TRAFFIC EVEN THOUGH YOU'VE MADE NO STEERING INPUT CHANGES, THEN YOU NEED TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL 1.5 TO 2 INCHES TO START TO GET STEERING INPUT TO CORRECT THE VEHICLE FROM THE OTHER LANE AND BACK INTO YOURS. IT SHOULD BE MORE RESPONSIVE. THE VEHICLE REQUIRES EXCESSIVE STEERING AND VEERS ON IT OWN. ALSO WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND YOU ENCOUNTER A BUMP OR POTHOLE, THE VEHICLES FRONT END WILL SHAKE WOBBLE AS IF YOU'VE LOST CONTROL FOR ONE TO TWO SECONDS, I WOULD HATE TO ENCOUNTER THIS GOING AROUND A TURN AT A FREEWAY SPEED. THIS BRAND NEW VEHICLE IN THE YEAR 2019 SHOULD NOT OPERATE THIS WAY, IT IS UNSAFE FOR THOSE INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND POSSIBLE OTHERS WHEN IT VEERS ON ITS OWN.

Mileage: 75

STEERING WANDERS ON HIGHWAY SPEEDS. DOES NOT KEEP IN LANE, NEEDS CONSTANT STEERING CORRECTION AND INPUT. YOU CANT TAKE YOUR EYES OFF EVEN FOR A SECOND AS IT COULD MEAN THE JEEP COULD BE GOING INTO ONCOMING LANE OR ADJACENT LANES.

#1, STEERING CONTROL IS TERRIBLE WITH THIS JEEP. HAVE TO CORRECT THE STEERING CONTINUOUSLY JUST TO KEEP IT IN THE PROPER LANE. OTHER NEW JEEP OWNERS THAT I HAVE LISTENED TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM TO THEIR DEALERSHIPS. THEY GET THE SAME ANSWERS AS I HAVE RECEIVER FROM THE SERVICE MANAGERS "IT'S A JEEP THING AND YOU JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT". THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND THE COMPANY NEEDS TO CORRECT IT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. #2. DRIVETRAIN. I HAVE OWNED OTHER JEEPS IN MY TIME BUT NEVER ONE WITH A TRANSFER CASE AS STILL TO SHIFT AS THIS ONE. AND ONCE AGAIN I AM NOT THE ONLY JEEP DRIVER COMPLAINING ABOUT HOW HARD IT IS TO SHIFT FROM HI TOLO FOUR WHEEL DRIVE AND IMPOSSIBLE TO GET INTO LOW LOW. I AM NOT EXACTLY WEAK AND I HAVE TO PULL ON THE LEVER TO GET IT INTO LOW WITH ALL MY MIGHT. MY DEALERSHIP TELLS ME IT WILL LOOSEN UP THE MORE YOU USE IT. MY WIFE DRIVES THIS VEHICLE AND SHE FINDS IT IMPOSSIBLE TO PUT INTO LOW RANGE NO MATTER HOW HARD SHE TRIES. I BOUGHT THIS NEW VEHICLE TO BE ABLE TO USE IT NOW NOT SOME TIME IN THE FUTURE.

AFTER ABOUT 2700 MILES ON THE ODOMETER OUR STOCK JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON WITH NO AFTERMARKET PARTS STARTED TO HAVE VERY POOR STEERING, AND WAS HARD TO KEEP IN OUR LANE. IT ALSO STARTED TO HAVE THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKE BACK AND FORTH FAST WHEN HITTING AN EXPANSION JOIN IN THE ROAD OR A BRIDGE. THE JEEP IS NOW DIFFICULT TO KEEP IN OUR LANE, AND IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE ON NARROW, WINDY OR ROADS WITH CONSTRUCTION. WE WERE ALMOST IN MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS ONCE THIS STARTED ON A ROAD TRIP. THIS ISSUE GETS WORSE AND WORSE WITH SPEED. YOU CAN GRAB THE TIE RODS ENDS AND TRACK BAR AND OTHER STEERING COMPONENTS AND THEY ALL NOW HAVE LIKE 1/8 IN OF PLAY AT EACH END. YOU CAN EASILY SHAKE THEM UP AND DOWN / BACK AND FORTH. THIS WAS NOT AN ISSUE FOR THE FIRST 2500 OR SO MILES. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS AT TIMES YOU HAVE TO SLOW DOWN VERY FAST DUE TO THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKING. ALSO, IT VEERS FROM SIDE TO SIDE DUE TO THE LOOSE STEERING WHERE YOU CAN MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL OVER 1 1/2 INCHES WITHOUT THE TIRES MOVING AT ALL. I HAVE VIDEOS OF ALL THESE ISSUES OCCURRING, AND YOU CAN ALSO SEE THE STEERING COMPONENTS MOVING WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED BEFORE THE PLAY IS OUT AND THE WHEELS MOVE. WE ARE NOW SCARED TO DRIVE OUR VEHICLE DUE TO OUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS ON THE ROAD.

THE VEHICLE WANDERS ALL OVER THE ROAD. I AM CONSTANTLY MOVING THE STEERING WHEEL JUST TO KEEP IT BETWEEN THE LINES. IF I HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL STRAIGHT THE JEEP WILL SUDDENLY AND VERY SHARPLY PULL TO THE RIGHT OR THE LEFT INTO ANOTHER LANE. IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE WHETHER THE ROAD IS SMOOTH OR ROUGH. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. THE FASTER I AM GOING THE HARDER IT IS TO KEEP CONTROL. IT IS ACTUALLY FRIGHTENING AT SPEEDS ABOVE 45 MPH. I WOULDN'T EVEN CONSIDER TAKING IT ON A HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH. THIS ISN'T JUST "JEEP STEERING". THIS IS MY 4TH WRANGLE AND THEY ALL HAD "JEEP STEERING". THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT JEEP SEEMS TO BE IGNORING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP WRANGLER. WITHIN THE FIRST FIFTY MILES OF DRIVING, THE VEHICLE DRIFTED FROM SIDE TO SIDE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH OR MORE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JAKE SWEENEY CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (85 W KEMPER RD, CINCINNATI, OH 45246, (513) 782-1000) AND WAS KEPT FOR FIVE WEEKS BEFORE IT WAS RETURNED TO THE CONTACT.

I RECEIVED THE RUBICON ON 12/8/19. LESS THAN 2K PAVEMENT MILES LATER, ON 1/7/19 I EXPERIENCED SEVERE INTERMITTENT POWER STEERING FAILURE. I LEFT WORK AT 6P, 40 DEGREES, NO PRECIPITATION. AFTER DRIVING 1/5 MILE, 10 MPH, I PULLED TO A STOP TO YIELD ON TO A 4 LANE HIGHWAY. AFTER STOPPING BRIEFLY, I PULLED ONTO THE HIGHWAY IN VERY DENSE RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC ONLY TO FIND I HAD NO POWER STEERING. I GOT TWO LANES OVER TO THE TURNING LANE AND PULLED TO A STOP AT THE TRAFFIC LIGHT. THE POWER STEERING CAME BACK ON. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I TURNED LEFT ONTO THE HIGHLY TRAVELED, EXTREMELY WINDY ROAD. A COUPLE HUNDRED FEET ONTO THAT ROAD, DRIVING 20 MPH, THE POWER STEERING TURNED OFF AGAIN. I PULLED INTO A HOUSING DEVELOPMENT, TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF, WAITED SOME TIME, THEN BACK ON. I TRAVELED THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT AT 10 MPH AND THE POWER STEERING REMAINED ON. I TURNED BACK ON TO THE MAIN ROAD, A FEW MINUTES LATER THE POWER STEERING AGAIN TURNED OFF. THE POWER STEERING CONTINUED TO TURN OFF AND ON FOR THE NEXT HOUR OF DRIVING 5 MPH TO 50 MPH ON WINDY ROADS THAT WERE FILLED WITH BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC. THE POWER STEERING TURNED OFF AND ON NO MATTER WHAT SPEED OR WHAT DIRECTION I WAS GOING. I GOT THE VEHICLE TO DIEHL DEALERSHIP THAT EVENING. IT IS NOW 11 DAYS LATER AND THEY HAVE STILL NOT PERFORMED ANY SERVICE ON MY VEHICLE. JEEP HAS NOT ACKNOWLEDGED THE SITUATION TO MY KNOWLEDGE SO DIEHL SERVICE IS JUST GUESSING HOW TO FIX THIS LIFE THREATENING SITUATION. THE JEEP WAS LESS THAN ONE MONTH OLD WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I AM NOW PAYING FOR A 55K VEHICLE THAT I HAVEN'T HAD IN MY POSSESSION FOR ALMOST TWO WEEKS.

IN DECEMBER, ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, I EXPERIENCED WHAT I HAVE COME TO FIND OUT IS KNOWN AS THE 'DEATH WOBBLE' IN MY NEW WRANGLER JL. AFTER GOING OVER A SERIES OF SMALL BUMPS ON A HIGHWAY AT 65-70MPH, MY JEEP WENT INTO A VIOLENT SHAKING EPISODE. I ACTUALLY THOUGHT ONE OF THE WHEELS WAS COMING OFF. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THIS COULD BE REPAIRED BY REPLACING THE STABILIZER BAR WITH A HEAVIER DUTY ONE. THEY DID THE REPAIR. ON FRIDAY OF LAST WEEK, I HAD 6 EPISODES OF THE DEATH WOBBLE IN ONE DAY. THE DEALER IS TAKING MY JEEP BACK IN TOMORROW TO LOOK AT IT AGAIN. THIS MIGHT BE THE SCARIEST THING I HAVE EXPERIENCED IN MY 30+ YEARS OF DRIVING.

Mileage: 20,000

JEEP IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE IN A STRAIGHT LINE. WE ARE AVID JEEP PEOPLE AND TIRE PRESSURE IS CORRECT. JEEP NEEDS CONSTANT STEERING INPUT TO BE DRIVE DOWN THE HIGHWAY OR ANY STRAIGHT SMOOTH ROAD WITHOUT ANY OTHER FORCES ACTING AGAINST. SEEMS LIKE NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO YOU ARE ALWAYS CORRECTING TO TRY TO DRIVE DOWN THE RAOD STRAIGHT. THERE IS ABOUT 2" PLUS YOU CAN TURN THE WHEEL BACK AND FORTH AND NOTHING HAPPENS ON THE ROAD OR WHEELS ACTUALLY TURNING AT ALL. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG BUT I DISAGREE WITH THIS. WE HAVE A 2016 WRANGLER LIFTED WITH BIG TIRES AND IT DRIVES STRAIGHT A'S AN ARROW JUST LIKE OUR BRAND NEW VOLVO. JEEP ONLY HAS 2800MI. !!
