THE VEHICLES STEERING SHAFT IS CORRODED AND LOCKS UP WHEN TURNING, CAUSING A SAFETY HAZARD. FORD HAS RECALLED THE STEERING SHAFTS ON THEIR CROWN VICS, GRAND MARQUIS AND TOWN CARS. I FEAR THAT FORD USED THE SAME DESIGN AND MATERIAL FOR THE STEERING SHAFTS ON THE F150'S, WHICH WOULD CREATE A HECK OF A LOT MORE DAMAGE, INJURY AND/OR DEATH IF ONE WERE TO LOOSE THE ABILITY TO STEER THE VEHICLE. STEERING IS JUMPY AND LOCKS UP AT CERTAIN INTERVALS DURING THE STEERING ACTION. I HAVE LOST CONTROL, BUT WAS ABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM WITH BRUTE STRENGTH. THIS PROBLEM MUST ME INVESTIGATED. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, MY MECHANIC SAYS THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM AND THAT FORD SHOULD RECALL THESE STEERING SHAFTS, AS THEY HAVE THE OTHERS. I CONTACTED FORD AND THEY HAVE NOT INTENTIONS OF RECALLING THEM. *TR
