Consumer Description

DRIVING AT APPROX. 65 MPH MY F-350 4X4'S STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SHAKE VERY HARD, ENOUGH TO HAVE A DPS STATE TROOPER HEADING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION NOTICE. HE MADE A U-TURN, CAUGHT UP TO ME, PUT ON HIS LIGHTS AND STOPPED ME. WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A TRAFFIC STOP TURNED OUT TO BE A SAFETY CHECK. HE TOLD ME THAT HE STOPPED ME BECAUSE HE HAD NOTICED MY WHEELS WOBBLING AND THOUGHT THAT I WAS IN DANGER OF CRASHING. I HAD TOLD THE OFFICER THAT THE WOBBLING STOPPED ONCE I REDUCED MY SPEED TO ABOUT 40 OR SO. TIRES WERE CLOSE TO NEEDING CHANGING, I REPLACED MY TIRES AND THE PROBLEM STOPPED UNTIL RECENTLY. IT IS STARTING TO WOBBLE NOW AND THEN ONLY AFTER AN ADDITIONAL 15,000 MILES. THIS IS CLEARLY NOT A ONCE IN A MILLION EVENT, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT I HAVE HEARD MANY TIMES AMONG OTHER FORD OWNERS TO SHOW THEM WE NEED TO BE TAKEN CARE OF. MY LIFE IS WORTH MORE THAN A BAD ENGINEERING DESIGN. DID I BUY A $ 73,000.00 COFFIN?
