Consumer Description

STEERING WHEEL SHIMMIES AT 50-70MPH. HAVE HAD TIRES ROTATED, TIRES REPLACED, FRONT END ALIGNED, BRAKE ROTORS REPLACED STILL THE SHIMMY IS THERE AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE BIG TIRES 18"RIMS 235/75 MAY PARTIALLY BEEN THE PROBLEM. WHAT? WHY WOULD FORD USE A TIRE THAT IS TOO BIG? AND CAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL TO SHAKE AND SHIMMY. HAVE HAD AN INDEPENDENT SHOP LOOK AT TRUCK AND CAN FIND NOTHING WRONG, BUT I HAVE NEVER HAD A VEHICLE HAVE SUCH A NOTICEABLE SHIMMY IN THE STEERING WHEEL. VERY UNSETTLING FEELING. *TR
