 When brakes are applied with force, truck will not steer. this is a major concern and all 1999, 2000, 2001 250 and 350 trucks have same problem. dealer has been contacted. ford tech notes state (11/13/00: ...this is a normal condition and ford isn't going to reengineer the vehicle to solve it. the condition comes from a new wider stance, tie rod angle and the fact that there is more weight in the front end than on the 97 old body style vehicle. the truck cannot be reengineered to solve the customers design issue unless the entire platform is redesigned. ford is not going to incorporate a design change at this time and has not plans on the drawing board that the the hotline knows about. there will be fatalities because of this brake/steering problem! . *ak
