What owners wrote
While driving in a straight line under 40 MPH I can feel a banging in the steering wheel traveling up the steering column it feels like the front of the truck is loose. This happens while driving on smooth roads as well as rougher roads, and is more pronounced when the temps outside go above 75 degrees and the longer I drive it the worse it gets, if it is a cooler day out it does not happen. Ford service dept. Wants to change out the lower steering shaft, but I don't think that is going to solve the problem.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 ford f-150. While driving approximately 30 MPH, the front end of the vehicle made a grinding noise. The vehicle was taken to medved ford (1404 s wilcox street, castlerock, co 80104) where it was diagnosed that the driver and passenger side wheel bearings failed and needed replacement. The contact also stated that the wheel bearings were changed twice in the past. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired.
