Default Steering issue
Latley i have noticed that my steering is tight when turning and sometimes the steering wheel will not return to its postion when released.. this appeares to be an intermittant problem not always occuring. i see the older trucks 08- and lower had an issue with the lower steering shaft. Wondering if anyone has had this issue with a newer truck. Mine is an 09 xl with approx 80000 miles. THnaks

Could be that or your pump is starting to fail. Very slight chance there could be a flapper in one of your lines but I doubt it.

It sounds like it's time for a trip to the dealership, fball1208. Be sure to post your results; I'll check in to see how things go.
