Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I drove off the highway and it felt like the truck was steering itself. i had this steering problem since it was new- dealer said it was tire balance and later shocks- but " we won't throw parts at it"- a independent shop replaced the tie rod and the steering veering off stopped. the problem was noticeable when i was driving and going around curves- the truck was hard to control- shook and needed steering help. *nm
