Consumer Description

MY 2001 F-250 SUPER DUTY DIESEL HAS STEERING PROBLEMS. ITS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THE NUMBER ONE SELLING TRUCK IN THE NATION FOR WHO KNOWS HOW MANY YEARS, WOULD SELL A TRUCK TO THE PUBLIC THAT HAS POWER STEERING PROBLEMS. WHEN I AM TRYING TO PARK I HAVE NO POWER STEERING AT ALL. I KNOW THAT IT IS DUE TO RECEIVING ALL THE POWER TO THE BRAKING SYSTEM, BUT WITH ALL THE TECHNOLOGY OUT THERE TODAY WHY WOULD FORD HAVE A PROBLEM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO HAVE POWER BRAKING AND POWER STEERING AT THE SAME TIME. MY 77 HIGH BOY HAD BETTER STEERING WITH 35 INCH TIRES THAN MY 2001 HAS. *NM
