Consumer Description

NO ACCIDENT HAS OCCURRED YET BUT I AM CONCERNED. I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH "MEMORY STEER" ON MY 2008 FORD F-250 SUPER DUTY SINCE THERE WAS LESS THAN 40,000 MILES. IT NOW HAS 49,000 MILES AND I HAVE TO MUSCLE THE STEERING INTO A TURN THEN I HAVE TO MUSCLE IT BACK OUT AGAIN. EVERY OTHER VEHICLE I DRIVE WANTS TO RETURN TO CENTER OR A NEUTRAL POSITION ONCE I'M THROUGH THE TURN. I TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALER A COUPLE YEARS AGO TO ASK WHAT WAS CAUSING THIS ISSUE AND THEY SAID IT COULD BE THE STEERING BOX OR POWER STEERING PUMP. NOW I SEE THAT THE NHTSA IS INVESTIGATING THE FORD F-250 FOR STEERING FAILURES AND WANT TO CONFIRM IF THE VEHICLE IS SAFE OR UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I DRIVE INFREQUENTLY BUT WHEN I DO, IT IS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS...NOT A TIME WHEN THE STEERING SHOULD FAIL. IF THE NHTSA WOULD LIKE MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE SYMPTOMS MY F-250 IS EXHIBITING FOR THEIR INVESTIGATION, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME. *TR
