 Description of the problemWhile driving my vehicle i started having violent shaking that resulted in it being hard to control the vehicle. I thought i had a blow out and quickly pulled off the road. After checking all tires and seeing that they were ok i re-entered the vehicle and drove it home. The next event happened while i was driving home from work on the interstate. I was driving at around 70-72 mph and the vehicle started to violently shake once again causing me to temporarily lose control. I quickly decelerated to around 35 mph and gained control just before hitting the cement retaining wall that separated north/south traffic. I drove it home at 35-40 mph the rest of the way home. I called my dealership and explained to them the problem and they gave me an appt time to bring it in. I took it in and left it with them and they said they were unaware of any known problems that would cause this. I left the truck with them and they drove it and told me later that afternoon that they didn't find any problems. I drove it home and the next morning on my way to work i experienced the same violent shaking as mentioned above. I called the dealership back and told them i was bringing it back. They drove the truck again several times and informed me they experienced the problem with the shaking. They said they would call ford engineers and get a recommended fix. I left the truck with them a week, they installed a new steering stabilizer and told me it was fixed. Also they informed me that my front tires were now feathering and said it was due to miles. The truck only has 30k miles, the tires are worn due to the truck being out of line due to the shaking. The stabilizer did not fix the problem, the truck is now shaking on a more consistent bases. I have contacted ford corporate, a buy back offer was initiated. I was denied a buy back offer. The problem still exist and the truck is unsafe.
