 Description of the problemI bought a set of wheel and tires a year ago, they are stock size. The day the tires and wheels were put on my truck the steering was tight and would not straighten back out without resistance in the steering wheel. I went to the tire place and they advised me that it was a bad steering gear. I took the truck to my local ford dealership and was advised i had a bad steering gear. They also said that the steering gear was on back order and they didn't know when they could get one. But nothing about an investigation. My hope is that someone doesn't have to die before the steering gear is recalled.
