 Description of the problemI'm driving my truck when all of a sudden it will start vibrating horribly, like driving over a washboard type of road. The only way to get it to stop is to pull over to the side of the highway, put it in park, wait, and then try to resume driving. But this does not always work. You sometimes have to stop and change to park, or reverse, a couple of times, before driving again so that the vibration goes away. I have complained about this before, and i see hundreds of complaints for the same issue on "ford owner websites", and everybody is pissed. Nobody can get an answer from ford service as to what is wrong. Many people have replaced many different things (i. E. Transmission, clutch pads, bearings, u-joints, emergency brake cable or pads), all to no avail. They have wasted their time and money, and ford refuses to live up to this awful and very dangerous problem. Apparently, ford knows this is a big problem with 2004 f-150 trucks, especially, but will not acknowledge it. Someone wrote on the web that ford knows they had a retooling problem with these trucks, and let the trucks go out for sale anyway. I am now having this problem more often, and i am afraid to drive it. I do not have any money to fix my truck, since our economy is so bad and have been unemployed for years. Make ford take ownership of this recall problem!
