I would venture to say at some point they may just issue a recall!
So many are flocking to dealers to try and get it done. Who ever designed the aluminum gearbox should hang his head in shame, I still wonder how they tested it and why they thought it was tolerable. Mine is not as extreme as some but it is still bad. How did they think these would fly or did they even really know? Seems odd that they did an incredible job re designing the jeep in many ways but the part that was most needed was bad! (literally undrivable) I understand the weight thing but in this case they should have done a little more homework, more testing hot weather ..cold weather. Other car companies surely have implemented aluminum steering boxes. How did it go so wrong? So yes I know not every Wrangler has this problem but again for those who do why is this not just released as a recall ...FCA ... my bad, some JL's have steering problems we want them fixed! instead it is released as a TSB that does nothing to strengthen the brand...what would is admitting the issues and correcting them....which yes they are doing now but backwards.
