Hello, I'm Danny.

Having so much work done on such a new truck have you considered filing a Lemon Law claim? After 3 paid attempts to fix the truck unsuccessfully and the same problem exists the dealer refunds your money and buys back.I will do some research and get back to you in the meantime. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.

Look forward to any help you can give me. When I drive the steering wheel is loose to the right for about a quarter of a turn then you feel the it line up and turn like normal. When you drive on uneven road you feel like the wheel goes limp for few seconds until you get over the uneven road and tires wear only on out side tread.

It sounds like the frame could be cracked which shows up only when driving. Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so we can see what's going on? That would be great. You can upload it here with your response. Here is the front suspension breakdown so we can eliminate each component. I would look at the tie rods first. Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.
