Consumer Description

2017 FORD F-350 SUPER DUTY WITH 28,000 MILES. THE TRUCK IS EXPERIENCING A SEVERE WOBBLE/SHAKING IN THE STEERING AROUND 70MPH. IT FEELS LIKE THERE IS A BLOWN FRONT TIRE. THE TRUCK MUST BE IMMEDIATELY PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE STEERING APPEARS FINE ONCE DRIVING IS RESUMED. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR IN HIGHER SPEED TRAFFIC, AN ACCIDENT COULD EASILY HAPPEN. IN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET AND ON THIS SITE, IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS OCCURRING WITH MANY FORD SUPER DUTY'S. AN INVESTIGATION SHOULD BE INITIATED PROMPTLY AS THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS STEERING PROBLEM.
