2018 Owners Only--Any Issues So Far???

On down the highway

well I have owned a 07, 10, and 14, all were flawless, this 2018 is not in the same class (mine is a 2018 FX-4 Lariat 3.5 eco), for starters it steers like crap, the electronic steering feels like it is constantly getting signals and at speeds you can almost feel the steering wheel getting moved back and forth, you can not turn loose or quit driving this thing or it heads out of your lane.
Mine gets false signals from run down roads with poor markings and steers often when I don't want it to. I shut it off on those roads.
If you don't have lane assist, take it in, alignment is covered for 12k miles under warranty

What tires did your STX come with? I "built" an STX 4x4 on Ford's website and it showed the tire as a All Terrain 275/55R20 but not the brand, model or load range. Perhaps you could post a pic of the tread?
Also does the dash show the gear position of the 10-speed?
Thanks

So, some not so great news.. After 5k miles on the truck my check engine light is now on... Upon taking it to Ford to be diagnosed they've determined that it's either a bad fuel injector or the wiring/connection to that injector. I'll be dropping the truck off Tuesday and picking up a loaner until they get it fixed. I've also developed a pretty hardcore shudder that happens very rarely under light acceleration. It feels like the torque converter not engaging properly because as soon as I back off the power the shudder is gone and doesn't come back for two to three weeks or so. I mentioned the shudder when I brought it in for the check engine light but they didn't really acknowledge it so I'll be sure to reiterate it when I drop it off this week.

You need to post some pics of that bad boy or is it a girl?
