Listen guys I loved that jeep but no doubt I just got a bad one . My girlfriend In Burlingame also bought a 2020 Gladiator and has had no trouble with it at all . However I've read some nightmare stories on this forum From Wrangler and Gladiator owners . One Gladiator owner who lived a block and a half from the dealership had the same problem as me . He took it back 10 times and the dealer finally offered him a new one which he accepted much to his wife's disapproval . But I understand , everything about the Gladiators mechanically and cosmetically is awesome except for a bad software issue and the electric power steering motor that will over heat if you put bigger tires on it which I have never done. A friend of mine who owns DC Customs in Ukiah California has converted Nine of the Gladiators and other Jeeps back to the belt drive power steering pump kits . It used to cost $4,500 but it probably cost about $5,000 now out the door. Its a forever cure for the power steering issues if you don't mind spending Five grand . I told Jeep about this fix but they never offered to pay for it. Don...

Sell your Jeep and get the pain out of you. Case closed

I can understand your frustration. So what are you going to do? Keep it, or dump it?
