Consumer Description

WHEN I GET UP TO 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTS TO VIBRATE. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE SINCE I BOUGHT IT. I TOOK IT TO TWO DIFFERENT FORD DEALERSHIPS AND THEY COULD NEVER FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. BY ME SPENDING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TRYING TO GET OTHER THINGS FIXED WHICH WASN'T EVEN THE PROBLEM, I NOW FIND OUT THAT IT IS THE TRANSFER CASE, WHICH IS ABOUT $1300 JUST FOR THE PART. I WILL NEVER BUY A FORD AGAIN. *AK
