As far as the steering issues go, my 2018 had the horrible wandering steering problem too, as did ALL of the 2018 JLs I test drove. Mine was 100% cured immediately when my dealership flashed my onboard computers and reloaded the calibrations for my VIN. Therefore, I still believe that the issue is not a hardware issue and lots of owners and dealers really jumped the gun when they started replacing hard parts. That screwed everybody because it muddied the water and made it harder to diagnose the actual problem.
Remember, 2018 was the first time they ever used an electronic control on the hydraulic pump. It was to be expected that there'd be issues. But rather than throwing parts at the problem, which was dumb in my opinion, I feel like FCA should have taken more time to start with the obvious: the software.
