Consumer Description

PURCHASED NEW IN 2005. WITH LOW MILEAGE AND AT 7 YEARS OLD, CLANKING SOUNDS FROM THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE STARTED. FELT SOMEWHAT IN THE STEERING WHEEL. DEALER REPLACED AND WROTE THE "INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT TO BE BINDING." COST, $300.00. TRUCK NOT USED OFF-ROAD AND HALF THE MILES ARE TOWING A 5TH WHEEL TRAILER. DON'T KNOW IF THIS HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT, BUT DOUBTFUL. I READ MANY OTHERS VIA THE NHTSA SHOW THIS PROBLEM TOO, YET NO RECALL ! SEEMS A SAFETY ISSUE TO ME. CURRENTLY, I'M EXPERIENCING THIS AGAIN AS OF 041114 @ 51,000 MILES @ 9 YEARS OLD. WILL BE TAKING VEHICLE TO DEALER - AGAIN. *JS
