NHTSA Complaint #10227684 — 2005 FORD F-350 SD

I HAVE A 2005 FORD F350 SUPER DUTY, WITH DANGEROUS FRONT END PROBLEMS. WHEN GOING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (55-70MPH), AND HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD(EVEN WORSE WHILE GOING THROUGH A SLIGHT CURVE) THE FRONT END STARTS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THIS OSCILLATION IS SO STRONG, THAT IT ALMOST YANKS THE STEERING WHEEL OUT OF MY HANDS. THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES IT STOP IS TO SLOW DOWN TO ABOUT 20MPH. VERY DANGEROUS TO DO ON THE INTERSTATE!!! AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH AND READING SOME OF THE ONLINE FORUMS FOR FORD TRUCK OWNERS, I FIND THAT THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM AND ALSO A VERY COMMON ONE TO BOOT. THE MOST WORRISOME PART OF THIS PROBLEM, IS THAT IS VERY UNPREDICTABLE. SOMETIMES I CAN GO A MONTH OR SO WITH NO PROBLEMS. HOWEVER, THIS PAST WEEKEND, IT DID THIS THREE TIMES DURING A 10 MILE TRIP HOME FROM A RESTAURANT. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM THAT FORD MOTOR CO. SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR CORRECTING. IF SOMETHING IS NOT DONE SOON MANY PEOPLE COULD GET HURT, AND GOD FORBID, BE KILLED. *TR
