Consumer Description

HAD MY F150 FOR LESS THAN 3 MONTHS WHEN NOTICED THE VIBRATION WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, ALSO HAS ROUGH IDLE, AND ROUGH SUSPENSION. TOOK TO DEALER THEY STATED NOTHING WRONG... WELL NOW ITS BEEN ABOUT 9 MONTH AND THE VIBRATION HAS GOTTEN SO BAD THAT WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED YOU GET THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKING ALONG WITH THE TRUCK. AGAIN I TOOK TO THE DEALER NOW THEY TELL ME MY ROTORS ARE WARPED AND I NEED AN ALIGNMENT AND NEW TIRES CAUSE IT ATE THE TREAD OFF THE INSIDE OF THE TIRES, AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $400.00. I TALKED TO THE TIRE WARRANTY DEPARTMENT HE EVEN SAID THAT IT SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING ALONG WITH MANY OTHERS. BUT FORD SERVICE SAYS IT NORMAL.....NOW I AM DRIVING A TRUCK WITH KIDS THAT IS UNSAFE. ARE THEY WANTING FOR PEOPLE TO DIE BEFORE THEY CORRECT THIS PROBLEM?? *JB
