Consumer Description

AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN GOING AROUND A CURVE THE VEHICLE BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY. FORD DEALER REPLACED THE DAMPER ASSEMBLY, FRONT SUSPENSION ARM BUSHING, INSTALLED 1 DEGREE ADJUSTERS, REPLACED THE TRACK BAR BUSHING, AND DID A FRONT END ALIGNMENT. TEN MONTHS LATER I EXPERIENCED A SIMILAR VIOLENT SHAKING WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS AT 75 MPH. THIS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN A 2 DAY PERIOD. THE SHAKING WOULD ONLY SUBSIDE AFTER SLOWING DOWN TO LESS THAN 15 MPH. MANY OTHER F250 OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. THE SHAKING IS SO VIOLENT IS COULD EASILY CAUSE LOSS OF CONTROL AND AN ACCIDENT. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE.
