Jeep Wrangler: Steering

Affects Jeep Wrangler · 2018 — about 1K vehicles.

The hazard

Certain vehicles may have been built with an improperly welded front track bar bracket. This could result in the bracket separating from the frame, which would reduce steering response and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and repair the front track bar bracket welds as necessary. Note: Prior to complete separation of the bracket from the frame, a driver may notice a front end noise, an off-center steering wheel position, a “Service Electronic Stability Control” message and/or Electronic Stability control light on in the instrument cluster.
