The steering is extremely lose where I can turn the wheel almost half way before it turns the tires. The headlights move constantly after being adjusted and make it nearly impossible to see at night. The 4wheel drive box is constantly throwing the truck into 4wheel auto and 4wheel low without warning, whatcha is very dangerous when entering the interstate

Passenger headlight will not turn on. Both lowbeam and high beam don?t turn on. Bulb is in working condition, fuses are not blown, can?t seem to find a solution. This makes the vehicle very dangerous with no right side visibility. Unknown reason behind the problem.

When bought new, between 40 and 60 MPH there is a bouncing in the suspension. Fix was to place 400 lbs just behind the tailgate. I put 330 lbs across the rear axial with good balanced tires. Been this way since 2005 and it's a stupid fix.
