 Description of the problemI have owned my truck for 15 months, and recently i have a severe vibration at speeds of 40-45 mph. I brought into the shop 4 times, the last time being towed in, because it shook so bad, i was scared to drive it. I replaced all four tires and that didn't even help. I have called ford on many atempts, to inform them of this problem, along with many others i have had. Their response was, oh well. I just learned today, that the severe vibration is common in these trucks. If i would have known this, i would have never purchased this vehicle. It it extremely unsafe to drive. I was also told there is a weight or something that can be installed to help the vibration. If this is true, i would like to know what it is and how i can get it.*ak
