Mine goes in tomorrow again will see what they say. At least this time they called me to bring it in so maybe will have some success
This describes mine perfect, 2021 Mojave with 3000 miles, seems to have gotten worse since I picked it up in early February. My steering wheel was off a tad to the left when I picked it. Seems like I am always putting constant left in it to go straight. Guess a trip to the dealership is in my future.
I know it looks bad but your alignment between your tires is fine. They just didn't adjust the drag link to get the steering centered. You could do it yourself in a few minutes and save a trip to the dealer.Box is being replace again, as this is how the steering wheel looked on the way to the dealer for service. This is traveling straight.
Pretty crazy, luckily the dealer was understanding of the urgency and was able to get me in much sooner than the initial 2-3 weeks.
The suck part is, even getting the new box is a hit or miss deal. I decide to adjust my instead, as it hasn't gotten any worst after 1500 mi. I will documents down, on how many turns before it bottom out from the factory setting and how much to back out. I'm going for the 1/4" or less freeplay, without binding of course.
Mine went to the shop yesterday for look at the steering box. Funny thing was the dealership contacted me to please bring it in to have a look. Will see what they have to say as am expecting a call from them today on how they will proceed. I've been on the fence on to change it or maybe just get better steering stabilizer and see if that makes it better. But since they called me and wanted to look at it I just went ahead and brought it to them. Looks like from what I can tell new management and also updated TSB so they trying to cover their basis with people who brought trucks in last year and they told us to basically get lost
The Jeep tracked perfectly straight. The issue i had was there was no input to turn until the steering wheel was moved that far in each direction.
Gotcha. Yeah that is bad. Really bad. What ended up fixing it?
The work write up stated they replaced the steering box.... again. The original one was replaced with the steel one last year.
Well just got call the truck is done. According to them after testing it the truck did wander at highway speeds and there was noticeable play in the steering so they changed out the box. So will see today when I pick it up if I get better or worse. I'm going to drive that sucker a good bit since I am supposed to be leaving on a trip next week and don't want to have to deal with issues while on the road
Initial after driving home. Steering seems tighter. Not much play at all in the steering anymore. Haven't had a chance to really get it on the highway yet since the drive home was just through a bunch of red lights, etc. But so far it seems more responsive but will need to drive more at higher speeds to see for sure
