Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2005 FORD F-350 PICK UP TRUCK. I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH SEVERE VIBRATIONS SINCE SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER MANY TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM WITHOUT RESOLUTION. I RECENTLY RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD ABOUT THIS "SHIMMY" PROBLEM. THE LETTER RECOMMENDS MAINTAINING TIRE PRESSURE. TODATE THAT HAS NOT RESOLVED MY PROBLEM. AT ONE POINT, I REPLACED ALL THE TIRES ON THE TRUCK AT THE DEALER (THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM WAS THE WAY THEY WERE WEARING) BUT WITH NEW TIRES AND THE PROPER INFLATION, THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURRED. AS YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY AWARE THERE IS A PROBLEM, I THINK YOU NEED TO KNOW THAT THE TIRES ARE NOT THE SOLE CAUSE AS IT HAS NOT FIXED MY VEHICLE. *TR
