| Description of the problem | 2009 ford f150 has been shaking at idle or when going slow when vehicle is not in park. It shakes and jerks terribly bad. It has caused me to stall at a stop light waiting for the light to turn green and i've nearly been hit in the rear multiple times and this is not counting the road rage people have when this happens. Took it to a shop and was told it was a cam phaser. Found out this is a common problem with ford's 5. 4 but ford isn't doing anything about it. I guess if you just get ran into and not killed from something then it's not serious enough to own up to it and issue a recall? This is ridiculous and dangerous!! Besides not having $4k to fix it i've also been told that it often requires you to get a new engine. If i don't have $4k i definitely don't have $8k for a new engine. Someone needs to help us please!!! |
