2023 Gen3 37PP-steering wheel thumping/tapping feeling.

Update: 5-9-24

Here is a video of my friends 2021 raptor no thump/binding (55K miles). The shaft has a different finish and the rubber boot on the bottom is a different color. The head of service asked me to write an email to him describing my issue and include all my videos. He sent my email to Ford's engineer and the engineer told them to order the same lower shaft as my friends raptor (after watching my videos).

(Part# ML3Z-3B676-A for a 2021 Raptor). Part should be here next week.

Teslas steering by wire sounds like a good way to go. The fact it’s variable is awesome. Doesn’t give good road feel though.

By “good way to go” do you mean good way to die?

I'd rather have a thumping issue lol.
