| Description of the problem | On certain highways my ford f250 super duty bounces terribly. I must slow down to avoid losing control. It bounces so violently that i have been bounced out of my seat. Ford stated that their trucks have a "dampening" system to fix this. They stated to check the tire pressure. My tire pressure is fine and has been fine. I have ridden in chevy 2500's and dodge 2500's on the same highways without this occurring. Something is wrong with these trucks but i can not seem to get ford to agree. This is dangerous condition since you never know when the bouncing will start. Any other reports on this occurrence? |
