| Description of the problem | When you hit a bump at a higher rate of speed it proceeds to shake so violently that you almost lose control. Research shows that an anti-wobble track bar will fix the problem. If that is the case, ford should be responsible for fixing it. It is dangerous and a ticking time bomb. It has nothing to do with tire pressure. It is a design defect that ford should be responsible for. A person should not spend $60,000 on a vehicle only to have to turn around and sink thousands more just to have a safe vehicle. This should be a recall and corrected by ford. How many crashes/deaths have happened but have not been attributed to this as it has not officially been a recall issue?? |
