When I put my details in, under Description it says "Steering Damper" and under Type it says "Customer Satisfaction". Does that mean I have to go and say I am not satisfied with my steering damper ?

Dont think you will get the old one back. Its being recalled.

Yeah had my Jeep mechanic tell me about the recall yesterday for a new Steering Dampner, just not in stock yet. couldn't give details on whether its a beefier one.

Also for CRD guys there is a new Flash (been out 4-5 weeks) that improves starting. Turn the key and a very very crisp start now, I recommend you chase one this up.

That's great information. I think I'll do my next service properly at Jeep and get them to fix the damper and and the firmware flash.
