| Description of the problem | I purchased a new 2019 ford f250 super duty truck from sanderson ford in glendale az. The problem is with the front end. When i hit a bump or grove in the road going over 50 mph (i was going 70mph and 65mph when this happened). The truck starts shimmying so severely that i immediately have to come to a stop to get the shimmying to stop. Once i stop and start going again everything seems to be ok. This has happened twice and both times has nearly caused an accident. I know if my wife would have been driving she would have had an accident. I have taken it to the dealer and waited two months with a part supposedly ordered and it had not come in. I then went back and said they needed to make this an emergency order. They did and it has been three weeks and no part. I'm thinking ford has no fix for this and this is a very dangerous problem. I paid 60k for this vehicle and added another 5800. 00 for extended warranty and maintenance contract all to have a vehicle i am afraid may go into this shimmy at any time when driving down the road. I need your help to make ford aware they need to fix this problem. I'm fine with the truck otherwise but i need this fixed. This truck is suppose to get me through retirement. I don't have this kind of money to spend on replacing it as i would lose tons of money if i had to trade it in already. The truck has 9k miles. Please help. Thank you. |
