| Description of the problem | The truck started shaking violently while trying to pass a truck on the two lane highway. There was a huge loss in power and couldn't complete passing the truck. Extremely unsafe to have to slow down while still shaking and bucking to get back behind the truck that i was trying to pass. This violent shaking and loss of power has happened many times even after the many trips to the ford service department's. None of the bandages have worked that ford has attempted. This has been a nightmare to not feel safe in a 4x4 truck nor will my wife ride in it anymore because of the issue scaring her last time she rode in the truck. The problem happens when it rains or has rained recently or is humid which would be every day in the state of florida. *js |
