STEERING
I JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE AND WAS DRIVING THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH. I WENT OVER THE EXPANSION JOINT ON A BRIDGE AND LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. IT JUMPED INTO THE NEXT LANE. THANK GOD NO ONE WAS IN THE OTHER LANE AND NO ONE GOT HURT. MY FAMILY AND OTHERS COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE STEERING DAMPER WAS BAD. I'M SORRY BUT A BAD STEERING DAMPER WHEN YOU ARE TRAVELING 65 MPH OVER A SMALL BUMP SHOULD NOT MAKE YOUR VEHICLE JUMP INTO THE NEXT LANE AND LOOSE CONTROL. THIS MUST BE FIXED BY FORD. I AM READING THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD TO HAVE ALL OF THE FRONT END PARTS REPLACED AND THEN THE PROBLEM RETURNS AGAIN. WHAT IS THE NHTSA DOING ABOUT THIS? DO NOT HAVE VIN AT THIS TIME MY TRUCK IS AT THE DEALERS. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK
CONSUMER WAS TAKING VEHICLE IN FOR BRAKE REPAIRS WHEN DEALER INFORMED CONSUMER THAT BOTH FRONT DRUMS WERE CRACKED. IT WAS DUE TO VEHICLE TRAVELING OVER THE MOUNTAINS. BUT YET THE CONSUMER SUPPOSE TO HAVE HEAVY- DUTY TRAILER TOW PACKAGE. CONSUMER FEELS THIS IS NOT A NORMAL WEAR. CONDITION NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO. *AK
