Complaint Summary

STEERING: STEERING WHEEL/HANDLE BAR

Owner Narrative

COMPLAINT RECEIVED VIA E-MAIL."MY PICKUP HAS OCCASIONAL RESISTANCE WHEN MOVING THE STEERING WHEEL WHILE DRIVING. IT FEELS LIKE SOMETHING IS CATCHING AND THEN LETTING GO. THE STEERING WHEEL JERKS A LITTLE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IT'S MORE ANNOYING THAT ANYTHING. THE TRUCK HAS 130,000 MILES ON IT. I BOUGHT IT WITH 44,000 MILES. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN INTO THREE DIFFERENT SHOPS WITHOUT THE PROBLEM CORRECTED. " *NM *TT
