Steering column clicking noise

I realize that there is a TSB for this issue. It sounds like something is caught on it and making a horrible annoying issue in the steering column. I made an appointment to bring it down for service tomorrow morning. What does the repair consist of and will it take all day?

steering clicking noise

I had that tsb done on mine a while ago. According to paper work looks like they replaced steering shaft. Good news it stopped the clicking noise. Bad news is they keep the truck for the day. Good luck hope it fixes your problem .

the dealer finally confirmed (after not being able to find the noise and after I had to go for a drive with one of the technicians to duplicate the noise), they are ordering me the steering shaft assembly. Going in next Wed to get it fixed, thanks guys.



PS-they were going to charge me over 90bucks (one hour labor) if this noise was not existence. isnt that some bs or what?
