The turn cannot be completed without exerting significant force on the wheel to overcome the resistance.  This is very dangerous, especially when moving at highway speeds, as drivers may find themselves unable to stay on the road or worse,  to avoid oncoming traffic.  When we first reported this problem to a Jeep Dealer in 2018-2019, we were repeatedly told that they were unaware of the problem we described, and since they couldn\u2019t reproduce the malfunction, they could not effect any repair.  Over time, the problem worsened, not with more frequency but with more and more force being required to overcome the steering wheel resistance - increasing the likelihood that one might inadvertently oversteer when breaking through that resistance. After a recent incident that could have caused a serious accident, we looked online and found that ours was not an uncommon problem.  There are numerous reports describing this very issue on the carcomplaints.com website.  And Jeep actually issued a technical service bulletin in 2018 (TSB  08-092-18) that not only describes the problem, but also the fix.  So Jeep not only knew about the problem, but they knew how to fix it and did not do so when we were under warranty.  Now they are saying the fix will cost us literally thousands of dollars.  This issue  is dangerous and should have been under a mandatory recall from day one.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2018","productMake":"JEEP","productModel":"WRANGLER","manufacturer":"Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)"}]}]}
