| Description of the problem | While driving approximately 50 to 60 mph, after hitting a slight indent or bump in the road the front end of the truck and steering wheel begins shaking violently and uncontrollably. I had to apply maximum braking and bring the truck to a low speed for the shaking to stop and gain control. The first incident started when the truck had around 21,000 miles on it. It has happened 4 different times on highways, express ways & regular roads & different speeds. The steering of the truck has become very loose due to the violent shaking. It seems like the episodes are happening more frequently. I have contacted our local ford dealers about the issue. The first dealer told me they were not aware of any issues. The second dealer said that they were aware of the issue and were having to replace steering / stabilizer rods. |
