Consumer Description

PURCHASED A 2006 FORD F-250 KING RANCH, 4X4, QUAD CAB, 6.0 DIESEL, AUTO TRANS. A FEW MONTHS AGO. NEVER REALLY DROVE ON HIGHWAY MUCH UNTIL RECENTLY, I DRIVE FROM NJ TO PITTSBURGH, PA EVERY WEEKEND (AND BACK). TRUCK HAS AN OUT OF CONTROL FRONT END SHIMMY...CAN'T DRIVE OVER 55 MPH OR, IF I DO AND HIT A SLIGHT BUMP IN THE ROAD, THE TRUCKS FRONT END SHIMMIES SO BAD, I CAN'T SEE OUT THE REAR VIEW MIRRORS THEY VIBRATE SO BAD FROM THE FRONT END SHAKING. THE STEERING WHEEL TAKES ALL I HAVE TO KEEP IT IN MY HANDS. THIS HAS GOT TO BE FIXED, (((NOW!!))) AN ACCIDENT IS DEFINITE, ESPECIALLY IN THE SNOW MONTHS!! DAMAGE RESULTING = NO DAMAGE....YET!! I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE THIS TRUCK, I AM IN THE MILITARY, SERVING ON ACTIVE DUTY AND JUST CAN'T GO OUT AND BUY ANOTHER VEHICLE! FORD NEEDS TO FIX THIS ASAP. ALL TOYOTA HAD WAS A BAD ACCELERATOR AND LOOK HOW QUICKLY THEY ARE FIXING THAT!! CONTACT ME = Y. *TR
