Consumer Description

VEHICLE WAS MAKING A WHINING NOISE WHEN TURNING. I HAD THE CAR CHECKED AND THE POWER STEERING FLUID WAS LOW. IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THIS CAR IS LEAKING POWER STEERING FLUID ONTO THE RACK AND PINION. ALONG WITH THIS, THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS COMING ON. I BELIEVE THAT THIS MAY BE RELATED TO THE LATEST RECALL CONCERNING THE HEAT SHIELD. JEEP REFUSES TO ADD MY CAR TO THE RECALL LIST AND I AM SURE THIS IS DIRECTLY RELATED. *TR
