| Description of the problem | Since it was brand new, my 2006 ford f250 bounces so severely on the highway at speeds over 55 mph when hitting expansion joints, it has caused loss of control. This only happens on certain sections of highway. No injuries have occured yet as i have learned which parts of the highway to slow down on. But, the vehicle is not safe to drive on strange highways. |
