| Description of the problem | While driving along the front end makes noises. But if you hit a bump or if the road is split, and it gets bumped the steering on the truck will snatch and throw you around. I have noticed this many times. My wife said it does it all time. I was not expecting it to do this will traveling and nearly wrecked. I believe there is something wrong with this truck. |
