Description of the problem	I bought this 2018 f150 lariat new, on test drive i noticed vehicle did a lot of weaving to the point i asked salesman to drive it back and verify if steered like his 2017 which he did. This vehicle drifts all over the road and feels like it is getting over run with electrical impulses in the steering causing it to drift left and right constantly and at it's will, if you look down to adjust the heater controls it will be across the centerline or off the shoulder immediately, and there are a lot of complaints about his from owners. My dealership has aligned the front end and it is correct, the best we can tell it is in the electric steering, and not to be confused with lane assist which is never turned on, it has to do with the epas and the driftt control/crown in the road conditions. It feels like this system is constantly creating road conditions in it's mind and working the steering to correct for what is not there. Ford has an algorithm built in and it is not working and needs to be turned off immediately and correct this steering issue. To tell you how bad it is passing 3 cars the other day at 70mph crossing into the passing lane the truck had some kind of hiccup and the steering steered hard right and i almost lost control of the vehicle, it almost snapped the truck sideways, nobody was very happy with this. Going down the road slowly on a flat surface you can feel the impulses or the steering wheel/tires oscillating ever so slightly back and forth, hook a trailer to this truck and you have a swaying beast on your hands. This steering system is very dangerous, not 100% sure what is going on but it drifts constantly back and forth, nobody wants to drive this truck, you start to pass you do not know what to expect out of the steering, dealership is ready to help but ford knows it is a problem with alot of their 2018's, waiting on ford for a fix!
