2022 Ford F-350 SD Steering Problems

“Well, driving truck at speeds of 60 mph developed wobble. After slowing down wobble went away after about a 10th of a mile. Incident does not happen when I travel under 50 mph. Has happened several times. I researched this topic on Internet and Ford claims to fix this problem in the year 2020. They claim vehicles after that year will not have this.”

“Driving down the highway, I noticed my steering wheel was loose. As I continued driving the steering wheel became more loose. It was difficult to steer, I had to hold the steering wheel tight to the column in order to keep control. I was 2 miles from home when it became this bad. I slowed downand was able to manuever into the driveway. I had the truck towed to Caskinette Ford in Carthage, NY. I am awaiting information on what part failed and allowed the steering wheel to become loose. I am lucky I was able to maintain the vehicle in the lane and was not towing at this time. …”

Neither time was I speeding, over loaded, or driving erratically. The pot holes were things I had seen but not avoided as were are not something that has ever caused a problem for me while driving any other vehicle. …”

“Ford F-350 SWR, long bed, King Ranch. Purchase date: 6/20/2022, new. Problem with this truck is steering wander. While traveling extra attention has to be given to the location of the truck. Take your eyes off the road for a second and it's scary. You are assured you will be in a different location than expected, either off the road or on the wrong side of the yellow line. I pray I don't hit a pedestrian or cross over the yellow line into another vehicle. Since 2011 I have purchased 2 F150's, 1 F250, 3 F350's. None of the previous models and only the 2022 F350 had this characteristic. …”
