MY FORD F150 SOMETIMES PULLS TO THE LEFT WITHOUT TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL AND COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF YOU ARE NOT AWARE OF THE CERTAIN PULLING TO THE LEFT.ONE MUST PAY ATTENTION WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 30-55 MILES PER HOUR. I KNOW IT PULLS WHEN THE ROAD IS DRY AND POSSIBLY WHEN IT IS WET WITHOUT NOTICING IT. IT DOES IT SOMETIMES WHEN TURNING THE VEHICLE AS WELL.

WHILE DRIVING THERE IS RATTLING INSIDE OF THE STEERING COLUMN THAT STARTED A FEW MONTHS BACK. NOW MY ALTERNATOR SEEMS TO NOT BE WORKING PROPERLY AND THE TRUCK WILL ONLY CRANK WHEN I HAVE ALL EXTRAS OFF (RADIO, AC, ETC.) I ALSO HAVE TO PUMP THE GAS FOR SOME REASON FOR IT TO TURN OVER COMPLETELY. OTHERWISE IT JUST DIES. NEVER HAD A PROBLEM UNTIL LAST WEEK WHEN IT WOULDN'T TURN OVER AT ALL. MY BATTERY IS PULLING 13.9 V AND I HAVE CHECKED THE CONNECTIONS. FOR A TRUCK TO BE 3 YEARS OLD AND ALREADY NEED A NEW ALTERNATOR APPALLS ME. THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE GOING ON AND THE RATTLING IN THE STEERING COLUMN IS SOMEHOW RELATED TO ME HAVING PROBLEMS CRANKING THE TRUCK.

POWER STEERING ASSIST FAILURE. LOSS OF ASSISTED POWER STEERING CAUSING EXTREMELY, DANGEROUS STEERING SITUATION. MILEAGE, ONLY 56,000

WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH WITH MY CRUISE CONTROL ON A SMOOTH, LEVEL HWY MY CRUISE CONTROL CUT OFF ABRUPTLY CAUSING AN ALARM TO SOUND AND A NOTICE TO SERVICE ADV TRAC CAME UP ON MY SCREEN. AT THAT MOMENT I ALSO DISCOVERED MY POWER STEERING HAD FAILED CAUSING THE TRUCK TO BECOME VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER. THE RAPID DECELERATION CAUSED THE CAR BEHIND ME TO HAVE TO BRAKE HARD AND GET ON THE SHOULDER. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT. I DROVE THE TRUCK HOME AND CALLED MY FORD DEALER THE NEXT MORNING AND CONSEQUENTLY TOOK THE CAR TO THEM. I WAS INFORMED LATER THAT MORNING THAT I HAD HAD A CATASTROPHIC STEERING FAILURE AND THAT MY COMPLETE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING ASSIST (EPSA) WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED TO THE TUNE OF ABOUT $2,000. THE TRUCK WAS DELIVERED NEW IN JAN OF 2016 ONLY HAS 45,000 MILES ON IT AND I DOUBT HAS EVER BEEN OFF OF PAVED ROADS . I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AND PAY THE BILL. I CONTACTED FORD TO SEE IF I COULD GET SOME HELP AND BASICALLY GOT A VERY WEAK RESPONSE AND OF COURSE NO ACTION. THIS FAILURE OCCURRED WITH ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING WHATSOEVER AND HAD IT HAPPENED IN TRAFFIC OR IN A MORE HAZARDOUS SITUATION WITH A PHYSICALLY WEAKER DRIVER AT THE WHEEL THERE WOULD HAVE ALMOST CERTAINLY BEEN A BAD ACCIDENT. AFTER DOING SOME SEARCHING I FIND THAT THIS IS NOT AN UNHEARD OF INCIDENT AND BASED ON MY RESEARCH WOULD BET FORD IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. AT THIS POINT I'M ASHAMED THAT I HAVE PUT SO MUCH FAITH IN FORD AND THEIR PRODUCTS IN THE PAST.

NHTSA ODI 11103707

WHILE DRIVING, A SLIGHT RATTLE IN THE STEERING WAS NOTICED. THE LAST TWO DAYS, STARTING ON JUNE 5, 2018, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS NOTICEABLY LOOSE WITH LOTS OF AXIAL MOVEMENT IN THE STEERING SHAFT WITHIN THE STEERING COLUMN COVER. IT IS GETTING EXPONENTIALLY LOOSER EVERY TRIP. IN A SHORT TIME, THIS WILL NOT BE SAFE OR POSSIBLE TO DRIVE. THE STATE INSPECTION IN NEW HAMPSHIRE WILL NOT LIKELY PASS THIS AS IT IS NOW. IT IS DISAPPOINTING AND WILL LIKELY BE VERY EXPENSIVE TO HAVE FIXED. THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD COVER THIS KIND OF FAILURE, ESPECIALLY AT 37,000 MILES. I WOULD SIMPLY LIKE A DIAGNOSTIC AT A FORD DEALERSHIP, AT NO COST TO ME, WITH THE LIST OF PARTS WITH CORRESPONDING FORD PART NUMBERS WHICH I WILL NEED TO REPLACE WHEN I TEAR THIS DOWN. IF THEY WOULD LIKE TO REPAIR IT FOR ME, EVEN BETTER. I FIRST NOTICED THIS PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING EAST, APPROXIMATELY 50MPH ON NH STATE HIGHWAY 101 IN AMHERST, NH. WHEN LOOKING AT IT AGAIN IN THE PARKING LOT TODAY, THE WHEEL IS NOTICEABLY WOBBLING BY FEEL AND BY EYE. IT IS WITHIN MY BEST INTERESTS TO FIX THIS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
