| Description of the problem | I own a 05 ford f250sd truck. While driving at speeds of around 50 and up when i run over a pot hole or road roughness the front end shakes violently. I have to slow down very quickly until it stops and then i can proceed. I took it to the ford dealership and was told to replace the tires. I bought new tires and it fixed the problem for 6000 miles. That's when i rotated the tires. It has begun shaking again. This is very dangerous. If i were in heavy traffic when it occurred i could wreck. Looking up this problem on internet i found this is a common problem among all newer model ford trucks yet there is no recall for this. |
