| Description of the problem | Driving on highway over 55 mph, i hit a small hole in the road and the truck shook to the point the wheel came out of my hands. I slowed down to re-gain control and stayed away as well as i could from potholes. I spoke with ford a number of years ago and they dealership recommended an alignment which did no good. I have just been living with the problem until i received a letter with the exact problem. Then i find out that a lot of you have the same issue. What is it going to take before the government or ford is going to take action a death!!! |
