Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2005 FORD F250 SUPER DUTY FX4 PICKUP THAT I PURCHASED TODAY. ON THE WAY HOME, AT ABOUT 65-70MPH, I HIT A BRIDGE JOINT WHICH SENT THE FRONT END INTO AN EXTREMELY VIOLENT WOBBLE. I HAD TO SLOW DOWN TO ABOUT 20MPH FOR IT TO GO AWAY. WHEN I GOT HOME, I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET, AND FOUND IT TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THAT FORD HAS ISSUED A TSB FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT I FEEL THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED BECAUSE OF HOW DANGEROUS THE ISSUE IS. THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY TO REDESIGN A FACTORY ENGINEERING PROBLEM. THE WOBBLE WAS SO BAD THAT THE TRUCK MOVED INTO THE NEXT LANE. *TR
