Just wanted to post some issues I was having on my new 2019 Wrangler JL Sport S...loose/wondering steering issue and what the dealer found...
I have been driving my new Wrangler for 3 months with a loose/ wondering feeling in my steering, thinking its normal from what I have been reading on the forum. I did decreased tire pressure, but it did not fix the issue. Since it was my first Jeep, I thought it was supposed to feel like that. Getting an opinion from my two friends, who confirmed my issue, I turned it in to the dealer and they found the tie-rod end completely loose (nut was tight but not seated fully in the hole)...see picture attached, also have video that won’t upload. The dealer replaced the tie rod end and bar and now it feels 100% better. If you have similar issues, I would recommend to bring it to the dealer and check all steering components for tightness and/or installation. Hope this helps someone! PS - Still love this Jeep!
