TIRES - PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS

 I own a 2007 ford f-250 sd pick-up with a crew cab. since day one i complained to the dealer(s) regarding severe steering oscillation when encountering bumpy or irregular road surfaces at highway speeds, especially on curves. i was advised that the tire pressure must be maintained at the factory recommendation of 70#s. although the pressures are checked and maintained regularly, the severe oscillation continues and i was told that it is normal for this to happen if the truck does not have a full load or if it is not towing a trailer. the dealer(s) have stated that the factory does not have a recall, but did address the matter in a tech bulletin which only addressed the tire pressure as a resolution. with all the other similar complaints, the issue must be more than tire pressure. *tr
