| Description of the problem | I have a 2004 ford f150 that has had a terrible vibration and shaking problem to the point that the windshield wipers jump up and down everytime i have said anything to the dealership they say they dont what it is and they haven't heard of anything like this and even the last time i told them it was like something was seizing up we went online and started investigating the problem and found that all kinds of people are having the same problem and alot of them seem to think it is in the emergency brake system there is two metal parts that rust together and wont let it work is there anything i can do about this to get ford to replace it even though it is 5 yrs old because this is very dangerous last winter i was driving in snow and the back end slid around on me and this was caused by the brake trying to seize up. |
