unfortunately, i am now a victim of the dreaded DW but i am hoping to now have this solved.
first DW was due to LCA bushes being completely shot. Put PP LCA back on and DW solved
second time was due to stuffed draglink ball joint. Replaced under warranty and problem solved
Third time (more recently) due to stuffed panhard bushes, stuffed ball joints in tie rod and drag link. Replaced with PP tie rod, high steer kit and PP steering dampener, put factory panhard back in and all seems good but waiting on delivery of LCA drop brackets and i hope all will be good going forward

Didn't want to replace these parts under warranty with jeep parts? Probably will happen again with genuine parts, but at least you don't pay for them.

I guess if you want it solved once and for all go non genuine.

yeah - mine too. I'm going to replace all the control arms and correct a royally screwed castor angle in the minuses...

More $$$ downrange. Good old chrysler - helping you turn a $40K poorly designed vehicle into something ridiculously expensive
