It is not. Could that be the issue?

Center your steering by adjusting drag link sleeve. Then start Jeep and turn wheel lock to lock three times; switch ignition off, let vehicle sit with door closed for five minutes. Drive for 15 minutes and see if service message clears. If not, you my have to clear it with a diag tool.

Thank you for the information. I have an alignment scheduled for tomorrow morning at 10am. I;ll ask them if they can adjust it.

the message usually clears for me after driving for a few whenever I center my steering wheel by adjusting drag link

If adjustments are too far off you'll get this message. It should self-clear after getting everything where it needs to be.

I was crawling over some large rocks an got a brief loss of power steering message when I was at a pretty extreme angle. After that my steering wheel was about 90 degrees off. It took a few minutes to adjust the drag link and the message cleared after backing out of my driveway and driving about 100 meters. There are a lot of good videos on how to adjust your steering wheel, but it’s stupid easy.

I got my Jeep back with the alignment done and steering wheel corrected. All the lights turned off after driving for a few minutes. The only one that stayed on was the amber check engine light but I cleared it with my scanner. Thank you everyone for the great information. What a difference in the steering with the Steer Smarts setup.

What was the fault code? Implausible data received from ABS module?

I did not check the fault code. I just cleared it.
