Does anybody else's steering feel stiff? It feels almost like there's no power steering or like the fluid is thick. And yes I know some might make the connection to let the jeep warm up since its getting cold out so it could be thick but it did this over the summer to.

Thats the first thing I noticed when I bought mine new. Very stiff steering. I'm getting used to it, but whipping it around to do a quick u-turn is almost senseless. The throttle-by-wire lag doesn't help, either.

Ohh I fix the throttle problem by just putting the pedal down further lol. And yeah I was actually driving it last night and it was making a liar out of me so maybe it is just something to get use to.
