| Description of the problem | Uncontrolable front wheel bounce at speeds above 45 mph when you hit even the slightest bump or variation in the road. Entire truck shakes and you have to slow down to 20 mph or lower to get the bounce to stop. Has happened at least 30 or more times. Tires, tire pressure, shocks, steering stabalizer, and all front end components have been check and replaced. Still continues to happen. This issue is extremely widespread with many forums talking about it. This will cause multiple deaths if not handled swiftly. Driver has not control over vehicle until the bounce stops. At highway speeds (45 mph +) this is not an issue that can be put off any longer. Recently watched another ford f250 (with 6. 7 engine, so 2011 or newer) get the tire bounce and ended up going off the road and rolling twice. I hit the same area and was able to control the bounce and slow because i saw the other ford crash. I am trying to research the crash and get a police report number to submit. I can't emphasize how important it is that this gets handled and fixed by ford!! |
