Since 2018, Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators have had steering issues, such as feeling “loose” while driving on the highway. Other drivers have reported that at high speeds, the steering pulls to the right or left, creating a dangerous situation.
Despite owners taking their Jeep Jks into the shop, the mechanics could not pinpoint the problem. In the last few years, Jeep has received hundreds of complaints.
An update to the Electric Hydraulic Power Steering software might solve the problem. Or, it may be necessary to replace some of the best Jeep JK steering parts.
A mechanic can use a diagnostic scan tool to help diagnose the problem. If you’re lucky, your mechanic may be able to simply update your power steering software. If your Jeep JK is still under warranty, any repairs might be reimbursed.
However, if you are serious about off-roading, you could take this as an opportunity to upgrade to aftermarket off-road Jeep JK steering parts. A heavy-duty steering stabilizer will help solve the issue of steering wander, and it will also make your ride more solid off-road.
If you’ve installed a Jeep JK lift kit, you’ll definitely want to add a JK raised steering stabilizer kit. As you might have noticed, lifting a vehicle can throw off the steering. Readjusting or replacing the track bars and control arms can also help.
A high-clearance, 4×4 vehicle, like a Jeep JK, has a lot of advantages off-road. However, once you hit the highway, it doesn’t always drive like a normal car.
