| Description of the problem | Truck instantly pulls to the right, when steering wheel is straight, the truck drives immediately to the left, the steering wheel binds and will drive itself to the left, impulses in the steering wheel. Truck hus been to dealership 4 times for steering defect. Dealership has replaced steering gear, 2 alignments, balanced rotated tires, adjust air pressure. Dealership told me that i am wasting their time on "warranty work" this truck is not safe to drive, ford is refusing to comply to my warranty, and ford corporate will not do a manufacturer buy back. Ford will not give reasons for not doing buyback. Ford says this information is "internal thing". This truck is a danger to me, my kids, and everyone else on the road. Their should be a recall on these trucks for steering issues. Someone please help me |
