| Description of the problem | I currently drive 84 toyota pickup because i am terrified to drive my 06 f250 4x4 sd. If you are driving above 60 mph and hit the smallest bump in the road, it will begin to shake so hard it will cause you to change lanes and you cannot control the vehicle until you stop hard with the brakes. My family is not allowed to ride in this vehicle no matter what. The dealer states that it is the dampener and tire pressure. Obviously they don't understand what violent shaking is... It is not the dampener and tire pressure.... The truck will literally bounce out of its lane or off the road. If ford does not resolve this problem, i am sure that many people will die while driving these. I bought this truck brand new and refuse to drive it...... Guess you got your money though, didn't you ford. |
