2016 HD crew cab here also built in flint..i will say though i don't believe i have any issues with my steering, seems to be the same as when I bought it..then again I don't know what you guys considered really loose, I came from a truck with a rack and pinion so I guess i'm not 100% accustomed to the rotating ball feel. On a side note, I'm heading to the dealer sometime soon for some work, and I'm just wondering if I should say something, like a proactive move, like have them look at the screw on the steering box?
lastly, I have empathy with all of you that have had issues, and I hope and pray I don't join you in the warranty work boat, but this is the first year with this digital assist steering..somebodys got to go through the growing pains, it just happens with everything new..imagine how many folks suffered through injectors when the dirtymax came out.
