Steering Is Tight Problems of Jeep Cherokee

As I was coming home from work around 9pm I was driving down a county street when the engine light, traction control and power steering light came on but the power steering light went off at some point, but as I approached a curvy bridge I had to slightly turn wheel to the right to follow the curve, but the steering wheel felt hard like I couldnt fully steer the steering wheel. It was very scary as again it was on a curvy bridge and very dark on this roadway. Was able to get home safely but engine and traction control light stayed on. Next day my husband was driving down the street to my parents house when as he backed out of our driveway the wheel locked and he couldnt steer. Shut car off and restarted and turned the corner only to have it completely lock again as he tried to turn the corner and car just died. Waited a few minutes and car restarted and was just barely able to get the car to my moms where it shut down again and he had to leave there. The engine light was still on from the night before.

Vehicle has been a constant headache. Purchased Aug 21, 2018. December something broke, ended up being a transfer case shattered. Damaging our radiator. A week after picking up I still felt the vehicle was off and tried to return to dealer, they didn't have another trailhawk and said they would call me when they did. A few months gone by of hearing nothing. We did a tire rotation and noticed a huge difference in wear. Obviously the front end hasnt been right for months as ai originally complained about. Scheduled the vehicle in for service again to find it needs a wheel bearing replacement. Received the vehicle back and the notice the passenger rear is still making a lot of noise, enough you can hear over the radio, and the steering feels tight and pulls to the left.

I leased for 39 months a brand new Jeep Cherokee latitude 2015 at 10/25/2015 on champion Chrysler Jeep Dodge dealer. It will complete 9 months that I have this car. On 3/16/215 there was the 1st recall about an issue on airbags that could open accidentally. On 6/5/2015 there was the 2nd recall (I am not sure what was the issue). On 6/15/2015 I had an issue about transmission system and I couldn't move the car in indy downtown. I couldn't turn the car on. My car was on dealer for service for 5 days. They changed the entire transmission system. On 7/5/2015 I was in NY and I almost had an accident because I heard an alarm and it was popping up an icon on the Jeep panel, and then I realized that the steering wheel was really hard when I tried to turn 90 degrees on a crossroad. I almost hit the curb and the car behind me almost hit me. I needed to turn off and turn on the car several times to move the car. I intended to leave NY on Sunday to work on Monday but I did not feel safe to travel almost 12 hours. I waited until Monday to go to a dealer in NY and check what was wrong about the car. On Monday I went to a Jeep dealer on warwick - NY and they said that they didn't have the spare part to change on my car and that I need to wait at least one more day so they could order and fix. But he also said that I could drive, but the wheel would be hard sometimes. I just need to pay attention on 90 degrees turns and u turns. I came back home listening the alarm all the trip. I left the car on champion dealer at 7/7/2015 and after one day they fixed the issue. At NY dealer they said that need to change some part and on champion they just fixed and didn't change nothing. My car is just 9 months old and I had several and important issues. I bought a new car. I just want to put gas and drive. I already lost several hours of work and I do not feel safe about this car.

While my wife was backing out of the driveway she attempted to turn the steering wheel to the right when she noticed the steering wheel was to hard for her to turn. A red light showing a picture of a steering wheel was displayed in the instrumental screen and the car seemed to be running fine. After the vehicle was pulled back I to the driveway it was shut off. The car was then restarted with no further steering issues. Jeep dealership was contacted and they advised they never heard of this happening and advised they would make a note of it and if happens again to bring it to the dealership.
