Default Steering Wheel Vibration?

My 2015 XLT Sport 4x4 has about 3000 miles on it. Early on I noticed some vibration / shimmying in the front suspension through the steering wheel. Figured I'd get it looked at during the first service visit. It's gotten progressively worse, I now feel it most of the time during driving and braking. I have an appointment set up tomorrow to see what they say.
Wheels fell tight. Wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

It's a frustrating problem a lot of us are having. Light bumps and warm temperatures seem to effect it.

Let us know what dealer says

Same issue here. Just waiting for a TSB that may never come.

Went to the dealer, the couldn't find anything in the suspension and no related TSB. I am going to post my update in the other thread:

Did they rebalance the tires? I would start there. Also, if you live on a dirt road, I would check for mud caked up on the back of the wheels.

Hi Eric Weiss,

I'll enlist the aid of your regional customer service manager for that vibration; please shoot me a PM with your full name, best contact number, VIN, and dealership information.

Please PM the same information requested above along with your current mileage; I'll get some assistance on this end.

Has anyone been able to get their trucks fixed?
