Consumer Description

MY 2018 F150 RAPTOR HAS A VAGUE STEERING FEEL AND OCCASIONALLY THE TRUCK WILL AUTO OVER CORRECT THE STEERING WHEN TRYING TO COMPENSATE FOR WIND AND WEATHER. THE ALIGNMENT HAS BEEN CHECKED MULTIPLE TIMES BY BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND INDEPENDENT SHOPS AND VERIFIED AS CORRECT. THE STEERING WHEN CENTER WILL OCCASIONALLY DRIFT TO ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER, ALSO HAPPENS WHEN CORNERING. IT FEELS AS THOUGH IT'S CONSTANTLY WINDY WHEN DRIVING, EVEN WHEN THERE IS CALM WEATHER. I'VE HAD THE TRUCK INSPECTED BY THE DEALERSHIP TWICE AND THEY HAVE CONTACTED FORD DIRECT WHO HAS REPLIED THE TRUCK IS BEHAVING NORMALLY.
