STEERING
THIS LATEST TIME (HAPPENED 1 MONTH AFTER BUYING) I WAS DRIVING AND NOTICED THE STEERING GET STIFF GOING EITHER WAY. IT WAS JUST A LITTLE BUT OVER THE NEXT TWO DAYS AS I DROVE I NOTICED IT GETTING WORSE. IT IS NOT A CONSTANT. IT IS AS IF SOMETHING IS HUNG UP OR CATCHING AT THE STEERING COLUMN ROTATES. I AM NOT A MECH BUT I CHECKED THE FLUID BOTH TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED. NO LEAKS, NO PUDDLES UNDER THE TRUCK. I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS HAPPENED NOW. THE ONLY THING I HAVE DONE DIFFERENT WAS USE THE 4X4 A WEEK AGO WHEN WE HAD SOME FREAKY WEATHER (SNOW IN LATE MAY). I HAVEN'T NOTICED ANY REALLY LOUD NOISES, OR SHIMMIES, NOT EVEN ROUGH RIDING. THE MILEAGE IS APPROXIMATELY 98-99K AND I THINK IT HAD ONE PREVIOUS OWNER. I BOUGHT IT FROM A DEALERSHIP AND THERE WERE NO KNOWN ACCIDENTS OR PROBLEMS. I HAVE SINCE LOOKED INTO RECALLS BUT HAVEN'T NOTICED ANY FOR THE STEERING; PLENTY OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE STEERING THOUGH. I WISH I HAD KNOWN THIS WHEN I WAS BUYING. CAN YOU POINT ME IN THE DIRECTION TO GO; IS THERE A RECALL I HAVE MISSED? *TR
