Consumer Description

VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE STEERING WHEEL DOES NOT RETURN TO CENTER AFTER TURNING A CORNER AND IT WANDERS ALL OVER THE ROAD AT ALL SPEEDS. IT TRIES TO FOLLOW ANY CHANGE IN ROAD SURFACE. DEALER HAS CHANGED OUT THE FOLLOWING PARTS WITH NO HELP. ( GEAR BOX, LOWER STEERING SHAFT, ALL 4 TIE RODS, ALIGNMENTS) I HAVE NEARLY SIDESWIPPED 3 TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERS 8 TIMES AND A TOTAL OF 11 DAYS. THE DEALER DOES NOT KNOW WHAT TO TRY NEXT.
