One problem related to hydraulic power assist steering system has been reported for the 1998 Jeep Wrangler. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
After applying brakes on rainslick road vehicle hydroplaned into the rearend of a pickup. I hit the steering wheel twice before the seatbelt 'caught'. . . . 2 broken teeth, brain trauma & concussion, mangled spine/surgery pending. First accident. No one will claim liability for the seatbelt not working and the airbag has been treated as a non-issue. My Jeep has been 'repaired' sans seatbelt. . . . Daimler-Chrysler investigation pending. All I asked, in the beginning, was for my seatbelt to be replaced. . . Not too much to ask. . . . Now I will fight as my quality of life has been compromised permanently and I should not have to argue over a defective seatbelt being replaced. . . At the very least! I am severely injured and quite frankly am angry, now, that I have to fight for what is 'right'. Please feel free to contact me at any time as my life is now homebased with the exception of numerous doctor visits.
