Consumer Description
I HAVE AN F-250 SUPER DUTY FX4. THE TRUCK ONLY HAS 15,000 MILES AND LAST YEAR IN OCT, 2012 THE TRUCK HAD A VIOLENT SHIMMY IN THE FRONT END AT 9,000 MILES. THIS OCCURRED ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS AND I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE STEERING STABILIZER AND THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED FOR ABOUT A YEAR. THE TRUCK HAS STARTED THIS SHAKING AGAIN. THIS HAS OCCURRED THREE DIFFERENT TIMES IN THE LAST MONTH. THIS HAPPENS IF I CHANGE LANES THAT ARE UNEVEN AT ABOUT 35-40 MPH AND WILL ALSO HAPPEN AT SPEEDS GREATER THAN 60 MPH IF THE ROAD IS A BIT BUMPY. IT IS VERY SCARY AND THE TRUCK IS UNCONTROLLABLE UNTIL THE SHAKING STOPS. *TR
