Consumer Description

STARTED HAVING TROUBLE IN THE STEERING. TIGHTENING UP AND HARD TO STEER. SOME THING WAS WRONG WITH THE STEERING SHAFT. AND WITH THIS BAD IT CAUSED THE RACK AND PINION TO GO BAD. COULDN'T GET IT PROGRAMMED AFTER THE SHAFT WAS FIXED BECAUSE OF THE RACK AND PINION. SO ITS IN THE SHOP NOW AND WILL BE IN THERE FOR OVER 2 WEEKS WAITING ON THE RACK AND PINION.I HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK JUST OVER A YEAR AND I'M HAVING TO PUT OVER 3000.00 IN IT. IT WAS HARD TO STEER GOING AROUND A CORNER. THE WHEEL WOULD STICK AND I WOULD HAVE TO TURN IT BACK. TRYING TO BACK UP THE WHEEL WAS HARD TO TURN. *TR
