Consumer Description

2005 FORD F350 PICK UP TRUCK SHAKES VIOLENTLY IN THE FRONT END AT SPEEDS EXCEEDING 55 MPH AFTER CROSSING OVER UNEVEN SURFACE. HAS HAPPENED OVER 25 TIMES AND IS VERY DANGEROUS. WILL ONLY STOP "WOBBLING" WHEN IT GETS BELOW APPROX. 30-25 MPH. I'VE HAD MANY INSTANCES WHERE I HAD TO GET THE TRUCK TO THE SHOULDER TO PREVENT BEING HIT FROM BEHIND OR SIDE SWIPED AND STILL GET THE TRUCK DOWN TO 25 MPH TO GET IT TO QUIT. STARTED SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, FOUND ONLINE THAT IT IS NOT TOO UNCOMMON AND NEVER KNEW WHERE TO GO UNTIL NOW. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THIS TRUCK, HOWEVER, IT IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION TO WORK ETC. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN TO THE SHOP, $900 LATER AND TRUCK "SHOOK" THAT EVENING ON HIGHWAY 101. THE FORD STORE WHERE I PURCHASED IT SAID IT REALLY ISN'T FIXABLE.... WHATEVER THAT MEANS! *TR
