loose feel ,steering
 
I`M still trying to find if anyone has had the problem you can feel it in the steering wheel turning left most of the time, but afew time right too. It just feels loose or shakes in your hands the truck was fine until lately I just put new front pads on also about a week and half later when it started.

If the wheel is shaking in your hand while turning, it's almost a sure sign that your alignment is out. I had it happen to me a couple of times until I figured out that bouncing into curbs wasn't such a good way to park https://www.f150online.com/f150board/smile.gif

Good luck -- hope this helps,

Jim

I too have noticed a similar vibration in my steering. It seems like something is loose when I hit bumps and also when I steer either left or right....I didnt notice this problem until about 8,000 miles and now I have 12,000.... Ive just been lazy taking it into Ford.....Any ideas please throw them my way....
