Jeep Grand Wagoneer · 2022–2024
The Grand Wagoneer's electric power steering (EPS) rack-and-pinion assembly experiences premature failure, manifesting as sudden loss of power steering assist, wandering on the highway, or excessive steering effort. On 2024-2025 models, Stellantis TSB 08-185-25 traces partial or full loss of assist with an illuminated EPS indicator (DTCs C1593-00 / C0051-64) to an over-greased EPS wire harness connector; once the code sets, the reduced assist remains for the rest of the key cycle. Given the Grand Wagoneer's 6,000+ lb curb weight, loss of power steering assist makes the vehicle extremely difficult to control, especially at low speeds.
Common Symptoms
- Steering assist warning light illuminated
- Sudden heavy steering effort
- Steering wanders or drifts at highway speed
- Steering feels loose or disconnected in center position
- Clunking from steering rack area during turns
How to Fix
Per TSB 08-185-25, the dealer first inspects and cleans the EPS wire harness connector; the electric rack and pinion is replaced as a complete assembly only if needed. The dealer repair is covered under the 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty. After replacement, a steering angle sensor calibration and alignment must be performed. If out of warranty, remanufactured EPS racks from certified rebuilders are available at 40-50% savings over new OEM.

Owner tips & cautions
- WarningIf your Grand Wagoneer steering warning light comes on, do NOT continue driving. This 6,000+ lb vehicle is nearly impossible to steer without power assist at parking lot speeds. Pull over safely and call for a tow to the dealer. This is a safety-critical failure.
