Consumer Description

DRIVING AT HIGHER SPEEDS IN MY 2012 F350 LARIAT, THE TRUCK GETS TO 60 FINE BUT ANY FASTER THEN THAT AND IT BEGINS TO GET A SPEED WOBBLE THAT CAUSES THE ENTIRE TRUCK TO VIBRATE AT A UNCONTROLLABLE SHAKE THAT THROWS THE STEERING AND I FOUND IT UNSAFE TO HIT THE BRAKES, WHICH FORCES YOU TO JUST COAST WHILE THE TRUCKS SHAKES VIOLENTLY. FOR A TRUCK THAT PEOPLE PAY UP TO $40,000 OT SHOULD BE ABLE TO CRUISE AT SPEEDS ABOVE 60-70 MPH WITH NO PROBLEM. IT SEEMS TO BE THROWN OFF BY THE SMALLEST DIVIT OR BUMP IN THE ROADS BUT ONLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. WHICH MAKES IT THAT MUCH MORE DANGEROUS. I HAVE A 6 YEAR OLD THAT WAS IN THE TRUCK MANY TIMES AS THIS HAPPENS AND IT'S A SCARY THING IT FEELS LIKE THE WHEELS ARE GOING TONCOME OFF. ONLY HAD THIS TRUCK FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS NOW ALSO. IT SEEMS IN MINT CONDITION EXCEPT FOR THE SPEED WOBBLE.
