  1. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    391 pages and this is only one thread on this topic. I had mine in 4 times, the first Time I had it back in was in my first 3 days of ownership and I knew it was fucked on my drive home from picking it up. I bought the Jeep and optioned it expecting to keep it forever....even bought the...
  2. Do I cancel my new Jeep? Wheel play

    ^ Yep. The original poster was going to lose a $200 deposit to walk away. Thatā€™s a no- brainer.
  3. Is there a true fix for the Steering/Wandering issue?

    ...and this is why my 19JLUR has stayed stock. I opened a case with FCA after my first ride home from the dealership. 5000 miles, 3 trips to the dealership and 4 calls to Jeepdoesntcare. I am still waiting for a Jeep sponsored fix before I change anything- so they canā€™t blame any modifications...
  4. Any reports of issues with steering in the 2019s?

    It may help, or may be wishful thinking. Sorry man. Join the rest of us waiting for a factory fix, or the growing population of others throwing parts at it. Hope you are one of the lucky ones.
  5. How does everyone mount their cell phones?

    I donā€™t know if a silver bullet for you. I have a pitaaka case and vent mount- the vent mount supports wireless charging and the magnetic mount has never let go of my phone in 5k miles of normal road driving. The case and mount work very well together, but only when used together. I hang it...
  6. Borla #11955 Touring axle back exhaust?

    No drone on mine, I also have AFE intake and have 3500 miles on it thus far. A deeper tone than stock, and marginally louder. Itā€™s subjective- and imo- was far more tasteful than the others I considered.
  7. Finally a smaller key fob

    Hereā€™s the thing... Cell phones got smaller and massively more capable. If somebody has a huge phone, itā€™s usually by choice. For a brand new vehicle, the Jeep fob is 30% larger than any other key fob Iā€™ve had in my pocket for the last 15 years. Does it do more? Nope. Did they skimp on the...
  8. Any reports of issues with steering in the 2019s?

    Pfft- ok. Go hunt for the vtec.forum or the Toyota Enthusiast Forum. All vehicles have enthusiasts. This thread is highlighting a likely manufacturing defect on a brand new vehicle thatā€™s under warranty- like any commodity automobile. You made a nice contribution by suggesting the toe and...
  9. Any reports of issues with steering in the 2019s?

    I need to requote your post here. I hope it will prevent the next dumbass from posting 1. that all Jeeps wander... or 2. itā€™s a Jeep thing and 3. the Jeep probably isnā€™t the right vehicle for you....and my favorite 4. This is just hype from first time Jeep owners.
  10. Any reports of issues with steering in the 2019s?

    There is no software update for 2019s (yet).
  11. Any reports of issues with steering in the 2019s?

    Iā€™m on the page of adjustable control arms and alignment- but trying to exercise patience and hoping Jeep comes up with their own fix. I got the unlimited warranty with mine and donā€™t want to play their games with warranty claims later because of something I added (especially additions to fix...
  12. Any reports of issues with steering in the 2019s?

    You can start by checking your tire pressure, not a silver bullet fix, but it does help and i think the sweet spot is somewhere 32 -35 cold. You can also take it to any dealer in Portland. The reality though, Dealers are waiting for FCA to issue a fix - so your best bet is to open a case with...
  13. Any reports of issues with steering in the 2019s?

    Drive yours when it arrives. I test drove mine 2 miles to go fill it with gas and mistakingly never hit the freeway where I would have noticed right away. Many report no issue, or at least acceptable steering. You could be lucky and get a good one.
  14. Any reports of issues with steering in the 2019s?

    All the dangerous wandering means that your Jeep is ā€œoperating completely normalā€ according to my (and many other) dealer(s). Loosely translated, this means ā€œwe have no idea how to fix it and donā€™t book a single hour to chase factory defects until Jeep tags a universal root causeā€. From all the...
  15. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    Nope. I didnā€™t have time.
  16. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    Jeremy, nope- they didnā€™t do any of that. I expected Jeep Cares to actually provide some oversight. I donā€™t know if I reached a soft spot in their availability, but this entire trip was another huge waste of my time. The dealer drove it twice and put on 6 miles total and offered me to drive...
  17. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    My Jeep is at the dealer now and with a case open, with no real help or oversight from FCA yet. The dealer checked the steering box and the alignment and it was per factory spec. They drove it and compared it to one they had on the lot and called me to come and pick it up because it drives...
  18. Replace Stabilizer? Did it fix your loose/wandering steering?

    The short answer- No, It did not fix the wandering for me. You might consider contacting Jeep cares and opening a proactive case right away. I waited for my stabilizer to arrive before trying to open a case and it took about 4 days to finally get JC engaged. The escalation manager finally made...
  19. Any reports of issues with steering in the 2019s?

    ... my Jeep is back at the dealer as of 7:30am. Dealer is aware of the starcase and expects Jeep Engineering to call them this afternoon. They gave me a 2018 JK to drive as a loaner that steers straight & effortless- exactly as my 2019 should.
  20. Any reports of issues with steering in the 2019s?

    Agreed- I have 550 on my ā€˜19 Stock JLUR, probably 30% highway miles this far. 2 weeks ago, I handed my Jeep service writer the star case from October...they didnā€™t drive my Jeep, or check the ball joint torque or the alignment... they just ordered the steering dampener and told me I had ā€œdeath...
