FCA is recalling the RAM pickup for intermittent power steering problems caused by a loose bolt. A friend has a Rubicon, not covered by the recall, and had the same problem. She said it was very unnerving to have the power steering come and go in the middle of a turn. It was intermittent and sat at the dealer for 2 weeks until they could figure it out and fix it.
