Consumer Description

1. I OWN A 2006 FORD F250 SUPER DUTY TRUCK AND WHEN I HIT THE SMALLEST POT HOLE OR BUMP IN THE ROAD MY TUCK SHAKES VIOLENTLY TO THE POINT OF LOSING CONTROL. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE VIOLENT SHAKING IS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME (6) TIMES OVER THE LAST MONTH. I DRIVE 80 MILE ROUND TRIP TO WORK ON THE INTERSTATE EVERY DAY. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THIS TRUCK ANYMORE IN FEAR OF KILLING MYSELF OR ANOTHER VEHICLE ON THE ROAD WHEN THIS PROBLEM OCCURS. I HAVE DONE A LOT OF RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY WELL KNOW ISSUE. I WILL BE CONTACTING FORD TODAY AND SEE IF THEY HAVE ANY FIXES. BASED ON MY RESEARCH FORD SEEMS TO BLOW OFF THIS ISSUE AND HAS NOT CAME UP WITH A FIX. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM AND MAY END UP KILLING SOMEONE BEFORE THEY (FORD) TAKES IS SERIOUSLY.*TR
