| Description of the problem | My 2005 f250 super duty pickup truck vibrates violently when i cross a bump in the road at 65 mph or higher. This is very dangerous because it is bouncing so much that the steering and brakes do not work properly. So far this has only happened during traveling on a strait stretch. If it where on a curve, it would be impossible to steer. Sometimes it vibrates into the other lane. It is very scary. Ford issued a service notice november 2011 stating tire inflation is the problem. This is not the problem as the tires are inflated properly. I have taken the truck to the dealer and they aligned the front end but that didn't help. Ford needs to find a fix for this problem and issue a recall. |
