  1. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    If it is the same issue, it is a SIMPLE fix. The issue was merely a loose bolt on the plate covering the 48 volt battery. After weeks of the dealer having my brand new jeep, it merely needed a bolt tightenEd! I have been driving it for over a year now with no power steering issues at all.
  2. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    Sorry for the late reply...yep still good...I’ve had no issues at all with the power steering since they tightened that bolt.
  3. When did you do your first oil change.....?

    Since my 2019 Rubicon was at the dealership for almost 3 weeks, 1 month after I got it, I had them do a free oil change at 2k miles.
  4. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    I reported the power steering failure to the THSA. They are giving this more attention than Jeep or my dealer ever did. I recommend reporting it also to help get the issue corrected.
  5. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    I cannot speak for whether the 3.6 has the hybrid but you are correct in that I have a 2.0.
  6. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    Thanks for the nice words. After all the shit I've been through in the first few weeks ownership I still wasnt ready to give in. I can't wait to actually enjoy it!
  7. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    The issue was a loos bolt on the plate covering the 48 volt battery. After 2 1/2 weeks having my brand new jeep in service, they merely needed to tighten a bolt. Fiat Chryslet just announced a recall on 180,000 Doge Rams for the same issue...
  8. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    I understand what your wife went through...it was pretty terrifying. The overcompensation in the turn when the power steering kicks ON in mid turn, when you are pushing in full force due to no power steering could absolutely kill someone. Chrysler Fiat announced JUST announced a recall on...
  9. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    After reaching out to them multiple times, multiple ways for weeks, I finally got a return call from Jeep, AFTER my Jeep was fixed and returned (how convenient). There was no intention to do anything aside from call me as a part of their internal process. It was actually insulting. I do not...
  10. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    After the dealership had my car for 14 days (I only owned it for 29 days), had replaced the power steering pump and the steering gear box, both resolved nothing as I expected, they finally found the issue. A bolt on the plate covering the 48 volt system was loose!!! A tech in CA found the...
  11. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    After 2 empty contacts from @JeepCares where they lied and said I would be contacted by my "case manager", I have still not been contacted by Jeep AND Diehl Automotive STILL has my brand new 2019 Rubicon. I had the vehicle for four weeks and the dealer has had it for over two now, with no hope...
  12. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    Well I haven't had my brand new jeep for two weeks now so there is unfortunately no way for me to check that right now. The Butler Diehl dealership has had my vehicle for 2 weeks without having made any progress at all and VERY limited updates even.
  13. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    The speed also didn't matter in my situation and the weather was a dry 40 degrees so I don't think that mattered. I drove from 5mpg to 50mph and the power steering continued to go off and on. The only consistency that I may have found is that if the power steering was off, it would turn back...
  14. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    I was considering taking my complaint to https://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/VehicleComplaint/. I'm not sure if anything would come of it, but I am just absolutely disgusted with this whole process and afraid that the situation won't be corrected since the cause isn't known and that I'll have this...
  15. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    The power steering went off and on for my entire ride (about an hour). The service technicians have also apparently had it happen to them 3 or 4 times in the 60 miles they've driven it, although I haven't been allowed to speak to the technician that experienced the power steering failure just...
  16. Intermittent Power Steering Failure

    I got my 2019 Jeep Rubicon on December 8, 2018. Like any other day of the week, I began my nightly commute home from work on January 7, after driving it for less than one month and under 2k (mostly) pavement miles. It was 40+ degrees w/no precipitation. A mile into the commute at just 10 mph...
