Thanks for posting the test procedures. I just checked and mine are also fine. I will let the dealer do the check, but now I can do it by my schedule knowing I will not have a issue.

You might want to check with your insurance to see if they require you to get a certified inspection for recalls like this. I had a friend who had a similar issue with her car and when she had an accident caused by the steering system her insurance gave her trouble because she never had a recall issue checked by a dealership. It almost cost her the loss of insurance coverage, including medical, for the incident.

Oh I agree. Have to pay close attention to where the truck is heading or it's in the ditch or across the center line. At least I'm getting my money's worth out of the lane departure system.
I've never had a vehicle with electric steering before and thought this kind of steering input just might be part of the deal. I'm waiting for a service appointment but based on previous experience I'm afraid I'm going to hear it's "normal".

I drive 2 other vehicles on the same city streets and highways as my new 2015, a 2011 MKX and a 2000 GMC 2500. Both of those are relative joys to steer, requiring little effort to track straight. What's your problem?
