Consumer Description
THE VEHICLE HAS AN EXCESSIVE WOBBLE ALSO KNOWN AS THE DEATH WOBBLE WHEN YOU HIT ANY SLIGHT IMPERFECTIONS IN THE ROAD OR SOMETIMES ON NEWER PAVED ROADS. THE VEHICLE GOES INTO A SUDDEN LOSS OF CONTROL STATE AND YOU MUST SLOW DOWN TO 20 MPH BEFORE YOU CAN RECOVER THE LOSS OF CONTROL. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RETURNED TO FORD AND I HAVE SPENT OVER $2400.00 REPLACING FRONT END PARTS AND TIRES WITH SLIGHT IMPROVEMENTS. THE DEATH WOBBLE IS STILL OCCURRING AND IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING ESPECIALLY ON THE INTERSTATE OR HEAVY TRAFFIC AT HIGHER SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 35 MPH.
