Do you know what the jl part number is by chance?I believe the jl box has a different gear ratio. Check the part # on the sticker that’s on the box. I bet u got one of those.

Mine was replaced with 68507576AB
You have too much faith in the accuracy of the paperwork from the employees (service dept) of the most corrupt vehicle manufacturer currently. IMO.Mine was replaced with 68507576AB
Actually, the funny thing is that the paperwork actually had the AA part number from the first TSB but the actual part has the new part number AB. But yes, like you I'm a skeptic and have my doubts as well. As long as my steering has improved then I really don't care. If it turn to shit, then I'll bring that bitch back in.You have too much faith in the accuracy of the paperwork from the employees (service dept) of the most corrupt vehicle manufacturer currently.

Go check the actual sticker on the box. Not to mention its just a sticker-easily changed. Lol
Get your u-joints inspected. Sounds like something more than just steering issues.Just thought I'd let you guys here know since I don't know where else to post this, but I have a 2020 north ed./overland and was infrequently getting the death wobble about a year after purchasing, finally took it in and got steering gear box and track bar replaced, (pic of service receipt shows PN's) it has been less than a month and is already doing it again and way more frequently now and fragile/sensitive to even smaller bumps than before. I will say immediately after it was 'fixed' it was super tight, responsive and substantially solid feeling. Now we're back to square one with the loose wheel, death wobble being triggered anywhere in the range of 50-70 mph, and will not quit ( I have it on video multiple times) until slow down and get below 50 or 45mph on the freeway. I seriously want to get rid of this thing, even if it can be modded to 'fix' the issue, this shouldn't be happening on a new vehicle and I'm tired of it already. Is there anything I can do with the lemon law/ a possible recall? I'm a little more than halfway into paying it off completely but don't care, I hate driving this thing now. Thanks for any insight anyone can offer.
Lemon laws vary by state. You'll need to Google what applies in your case.Just thought I'd let you guys here know since I don't know where else to post this, but I have a 2020 north ed./overland and was infrequently getting the death wobble about a year after purchasing, finally took it in and got steering gear box and track bar replaced, (pic of service receipt shows PN's) it has been less than a month and is already doing it again and way more frequently now and fragile/sensitive to even smaller bumps than before.

You know its very odd some vehicles have this and others do not even have hint of it. I would have them check the steering knuckle pivot joints for looseness. Normally you never expect those to be a problem on a new jeep but its a common issue with old high millage jeeps.Get your u-joints inspected. Sounds like something more than just steering issues.
I was ultimately denied the fix. They told me the Tech with 35+ years of experience couldn’t duplicate the wandering. They said “we’re not saying that it’s not happening but couldn’t duplicate it so it’s not enough evidence to provide for the work to be covered and I know you don’t want to pay out of pocket.” They then proceeded to say that at least it’s documented at this mileage. I told them I’d call back and complain about the wandering in a week or so…. I’m baffled.I decided to call my local dealer and mention this issue as well. They said they will take a look and see if the tech can replicate what I’m feeling. Bit my tongue and said OK and scheduled for next Wednesday. Would be happy to have better feeling steering.
