Thumbs down Ford is doing it again!

After the front end problems I lived with on my 2010 Platinum for 3 years it is happening again. I was asked by the dealer on my 2012 not to involve FMC this time and I trusted ( I am an Idiot sometimes) so when ever it is 80 degress + the front rack gets a shake in it the creates noise brought it in after six weeks and it was a 90 degree day they found it handed it over to ford and the response from FMC to Service Manager at first ford engineering was that it is a truck what do I expect so I kept on him looking for more info and after a year I handed all the Threads to Galpin Ford to forward I guess I was being snowed by Galpin and FMC. Because when I went to buy my next F150 I had one question? It was is the blue grease in the 2010 F150 any where in the steering and was told no by Brian the FMC tech and the Service Manager and guess what? Well you already know the answer to that I you read this forum.
My bitch is that I fallowed the rules of my dealership and when I need them there not helping and when FMC customer service got involved they set up a time for me to talk directly to a Engineer and I asked the question about the grease and he would not answer the question? He said I will have to back what the Field Engineer said not any answer from him directly so wouldn't you take that as a yes???

yup that is a train wreck of a post.... don't know where the blue grease icame from, but I have a suggestion for the OP.

If this mysterious blue grease is the problem, and you know it, but the ford engineers don't, well then, I would suggest that you go buy a case of good quality Red grease, like say Lucas Red N Tacky, and pump that into the problem area.

OMG...so it's not just me!!
Dude, seriously, if you want assistance from folks on this forum then you have to form at least Semi-grammatical sentences with readable thought structure. I was with you till you got to "Blue Grease" then brain cells started falling out of my head.
