Description of the problem	I own a ford f-250 super duty[2005] with 14,000 miles on it. I have hit a series of slight bumps traveling on the garden state parkway traveling at about 65 mph. The front end of the truck and steering wheel shook so violently, i thought the front end of the truck dis-engaged from the rest of the body. The steering wheel shook so violently i could hardly hold on to it. I took my foot off the gas and applied the break very gently. I must have slowed down to 30 mph before the truck became under control again. Meanwhile the car behind me had to slam on his breaks do to my truck being out of control and the rapid de-acceleration on a major highway. I had to pull over as soon as i was able to check what i thought would be major front end damage. After all, what could cause such a violent reaction. Absolutely nothing to be seen. My truck was just serviced by a ford dealership as it has been since i purchased it new. This has happened at least 4 times total. I cannot stress to you enough how violent this "shimmy" is. This is no shimmy ! This is like running over a series of telephone poles lined up in the road. It is almost impossible to hold on to the steering wheel let alone have control of the truck. This is an extremely dangerous situation that needs to be corrected asap or somebody is sure to die because of this flaw. I would be afraid to have my wife or children drive this truck and have this happen. Their lives would surely be in danger. Please do something to correct this serious problem, or get this dangerous truck off the road.
