 Description of the problemI have a 2004 ford f-150 fx4 supercab. I am experiencing two primary problems with the vehicle. First, the vibration and steering wheel "nibble". The vibration is present at nearly all speeds. It feels like the vehicle is rollong over small bumps in the road. Dealer has had vehicle twice and will have it again (3rd time) tomorrow. Claim to be able to fix the problem. The steering wheel "nibble" happens around 75-80mph and did improve slightly with rebalancing the tires. The other problem is with the a/c system. The system is not cooling the cab of the truck when the outside temp is 85 or higher. The condiction is particularly bad when the vehicle is at idle. The dealer says the system is operating at spec. I talked to a friend who has the same vehicle and he says he has the same problem and he is bringing his to the dealer to have it checked. The a/c in my friend's 1997 ranger cools better than my new f-150. *ak
