| Description of the problem | When hitting any small bump or expansion joint in the road when traveling over 60 mph on any roadway the vehicle begins shaking violently and is uncontrollable until rapid deceleration below 40 mph. The problem has occurred over a dozen times in the first 20,000 miles of the vehicles life. It has been in the shop 3 times and is currently scheduled for a 4th service call, however ford claims no parts are available and no time line has been given for their availability. The truck is currently sitting due to concerns of life threatening safety. This appears to be a long standing problem and i can not fathom why there hasn't been a safety recall on this. |
