Question makes no sense What have you TESTED so far & how? Fuel Pressure Spark Anything?

make sure antifreeze is at proper level. mine was low, and heater would not work at idle. filled her up, and walaaaa, blows hot at idle. something about needing full level to circulate through heat system. made sense to me and it worked. good luck.

check that the child proof door lock has not been activated.

If it gets hot running down the road,30 mph or better,the fan is not at fault.The fan only keeps it cool at low speed,when there is no airflow. If you take the rad cap off ,truck cold,and watch the water,if you see bubbles,almost like carbonation bubbles,a head gasket would be suspect.

There was a recall on a control arm in the front suspension a while back. This could be the source of the sound. Hope this helps.

It is unlikely that the bolts holding the steering wheel to the steering column have come loose, and with the air bag, you don't want to mess around in that end of the steering. It is best to take it to the dealer if the slop is on the driver's end. It is most likely that the excess play is at the tie rod ends, but there could be an issue with the power steering pump or the power steering filter.

worn CVjoints or out of round tires.wheels tires need balance.
