| 2011 | STEERING | APP. ONE YEAR AGO, I STARTED HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY TRUCK. IT WOULD SHAKE IF I HIT A ROUGH SPOT OR BRIDGE APPROACH AT 60 TO 70 MILES AN HOUR, CAUSING THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE WHOLE TRUCK TO SHAKE. I'VE HAD IT TO THE DEALER A NUMBER OF TIMES AND HAVE SPENT ABOUT $2100.00 AND IT'S STILL DOING IT. AT TIMES IT SHAKES REALLY HARD AND TO GET IT TO QUIT I HAVE TO BRING MY SPEED DOWN TO 30 MILES AN HOUR. THAT IS VERY DANGEROUS ON THE INTERSTATE WITH ALL THE TRAFFIC. FORD SAYS IT DOES THAT SOMETIMES, I'VE HAD 6 F250'S FROM 1999 TO PRESENT AND NONE OF THEM HAVE EVER DONE THIS, EXCEPT THIS TRUCK. HAVE YOU EVER HAD ANY MORE COMPLAINTS OF THIS NATURE? PLEASE CONTACT ME ON WHAT TO DO. THE DEALER HAS CONTACTED FORD MOTOR COM. THEY ARE THE ONES THAT SAYS IT SUPPOSE TO DO IT SOMETIMES. IT DONE THAT 6 TIMES IN A 10 HOUR DRIVE 2 WEEKS AGO. *TR |
| 2012 | STEERING | I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND HIT A SMALL SEAM IN THE ROAD AT APPROX. 60 MPH AFTER HITTING THE SMALL SEAM MY WHOLE TRUCK BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY TO A POINT WHERE I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. ONCE THIS HAPPENED I BEGAN REDUCING SPEED AND AS THE SPEED WAS REDUCED THE SHAKING WAS REDUCED AS WELL. I HAD TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN ORDER TO STOP THE SHAKING. ONCE STOPPED THE TRUCK DROVE FINE FOR A WEEK THEN DID IT AGAIN AND SINCE HAS DONE IT IN THE TWO WEEK FOLLOWING. THE DEALERSHIP LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THEY COULD SEE NOTHING WRONG AND THAT EVERYTHING WAS TIGHT. *TR |
