| Description of the problem | I have a 2004 f-150 supercrew and have noticed a vibration/shudder in the rear end between speeds of 25-45 mph since inception. Once over 50 mph it seems to disipate. Also experiencing the occassional nibble at the steering wheel. I was planning on taking it in but i don't think i'll waste my time since ford hasn't been able to make an exact determination of its cause according to the other complaints i've read on your site. Love the truck-hate the shudder/vibration!!! |
