What does "screw" mean

I keep seeing references to "my screw". What does this mean?

Screw is what Ford tries to do it you if your truck has vibration problems and will not fix them or calls the vibrations normal.

It sounds like a couple of you need to talk to your "salesperson" who sold you the truck. They should work with you

Salesmen or the Service Manager can not do anything if the FSE rep claims the vibration is normal. My truck had steering wheel nibble/shimmy and 45 to 65 mph driveline vibration problem. The FSE said "Your truck vibrates like all Fords, nothing abnormal with the driveline vibration" "If you are not happy with the truck go to the DSB". I think the FSE used the DSB as way of getting out of a problem truck without having to do anything.
I called my salesman on Monday. I told him that I won my case and the Dispute Settlement Board (DSB) is making Ford buy back my truck. I don't really want to deal with Ford again. The DSB took a few months but it was worth it.
