I'm just finishing training and have driven 2 trucks, both Freightliners. The 1st was a 2020 Cascadia and the second is a 2018 day cab. The 2020 steers like the old 1941 Ford pickup we had when I was a kid. You couldn't move the steering wheel an inch or 2 and keep it on the road. You had to crank it nearly a 1/4 turn to make the wheels move . The Cascadia is almost as bad as our old Ford. The day cab is a pleasure to drive in comparison.
I was talking to another driver this morning who had just picked up a new 2021 Cascadia today and has the same issue. What can be done to tighten up the steering on this exhausting tractor?
