Consumer Description

WE HAVE EXPERIENCED WHAT OTHERS DESCRIBED AS THE DEATH WOBBLE. WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND COMING UPON ROUGH OR UNEVEN ROAD, MORE OFTEN ON A CURVE, THE TRUCK BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND DOES NOT SEEM TO RECOVER UNTIL YOU COME TO COMPLETE STOP. THIS IS HAPPENED AT SPEEDS OF 45 MILES AN HOUR AND TWICE WHILE TRAVELING 75 ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS WAS VERY FRIGHTENING AND DANGEROUS EVEN FOR OTHERS. WE HAD TO PULL OVER WHEN WE COULD DO SO SAFELY AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THIS IS VERY DIFFICULT AS ONE TIME WE WERE HAULING A CAMPER AND IT BEGAN ON AN OVERPASS WITH NO SHOULDER. ALL RECOMMENDED AND REGULAR SERVICE HAS BEEN PERFORMED BY FORD DEALERSHIP. THIS ISSUE BEGAN BEFORE OUR WARRANTY WAS UP AND FORD DEALERSHIP NOW CLAIMS IT IS NOT COVERED. WE ARE NOT HAPPY OWNERS OF A 69K LEMON.
