Took my 2020 Jeep Cherokee TH Elite, with only 4K miles on a road trip to Oregon this month. I noticed that after 2 hours of driving or so, the steering became difficult at highway speeds (70+ mph). There is a noticeable sticky spot while going straight (neutral position) when trying to make small steering adjustments, there is also a loose feeling once you break past the sticking spot in either direction (left or right), which, at 70+ MPH made the Jeep wobble a little bit when I tried to make corrections. It was scary at first, but I was able to drive 3K miles (rounds trip) just fine, however I struggled at times to keep the car going straight. Not sure if others have had the same experience.

After driving at highway speed for an hour the steering wheel seemed to get locked in position and took effort to change it. It got my attention to say the least. No one I have talked to thinks it's a big deal. If there is a solution, I'm all ears. Thanks.
