Consumer Description
When driving at highway speeds and encountering a bump in the road, the steering wheel would begin to vibrate violently, nearly causing loss of control of the vehicle. This would happen nearly every time I would drive the vehicle at highway speeds. After a few time of this happening, the steering wheel started to have continuous slight side to side vibration even while driving on smooth surfaces. After multiple repairs at my expense ( replacing steering dampener twice, track bar and drag links), the problem still exists, and the manufacturer (Ford Motor Company) refuses to even acknowledge that the problem exists, much less correct the problem and reimburse for previous failed repairs.
