| Description of the problem | When driving my ford f-250 45 mph and over and hitting any kind of bump the front end shakes severely. The brakes when applied will stop the shaking. The damper was replaced but it did not help. If the bump and the speed was great enough it would cause you to crash. The truck has 38,000 mi. And the dealer tells me there is no recall and it is not under warranty. I plan on taking it to an independent front end specialist to diagnose the problem. |
