What owners wrote
While driving my vehicle I began to notice a clicking noise in relation to my tires/speed. No sensors came on, all gauge readings were normal. I pulled over and viewed the tires to check for a flat, all seemed fine and pressure was reading normal. When I resumed driving, I came back into my lane turning slightly left and noticed that the steering wheel began to vibrate. I slowed the vehicle again and put on my hazard lights while attempting to reach a freeway exit.
I have owned my 2017 ford f150 for a little over 2 years vehicle has 30000 on it. I have had ford replace my lug swollen lug nuts they have replaced them two times in the short amount of time. The aluminum separates and expands from the steel body . The lug wrench that they include in the vehicle to change tire will not fit lug nuts once they have swollen. So in a instance of having a flat tire on the side of a busy highway you would not be able to change tire.
