That's horrible. I can't imagine buying a new vehicle and having all those issues. The only thing that happened with mine was, I had a headlight out, so I needed to bring it to the dealer and they said they would need it for the whole day. I was pissed cause they gave me a minivan for a rental car. I looked at him and said, "really?. I've never driven a minivan in my entire life, and it took me buying a 50 thousand dollar vehicle to make that happen?" haha I was not happy.Death wobble and severe steering play.
So this stuff:
1. https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/fo...sist-steering-lockup-at-highway-speeds.12226/ (can affect any speed, not just highway speeds)
2. https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/steering-wheel-wobble.16577/page-8#post-436030 (check to see if this applies via date code) (This is an example of a general Star case, not specific to one specific VIN/Vehicle).
3. Check for loose ball joint nuts, and other steering andsuspension fasteners: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/fo...rangler-jl-steering-related-components.18510/ and https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/fo...has-play-and-drifts.3691/page-142#post-426243

Hopefully you'll get your JL back soon and there will be no more issues
