NHTSA Complaint #728613 — 2000 FORD F-150

VIBRIATION IN THE STEERING WHEEL AT 65 MPH, TOOK TO DEALER AT 300 MILES, AGAIN AT 2200 MILES TO ANOTHER DEALER AGAIN AT APPROX 2900MILES WITH CONSTANT VIBRIATION IN STEERING WHEEL AT 70MPH, FORD ENGINEER TEST DROVE VEHICLE AND SAID ALL FORDS WITH A 5.4 ENGINE HAD VIBRIATION IN THE STEERING WHEEL. WHEN I WAS ORGINIALLY TOLD THIS I THOUGHT I WAS GETTING A SNOW JOB, AFTER HAVING THE TIRES BALANCED AND ROTATED THE VIBRIATION WAS WORST THEN IT WAS WHEN I FIRST TOOK IT IN. I DROVE ANOTHER NEW F-150 AND IT VIBRIATED WORST THEN MINE DOES. I DO NOT THINK FORD SHOULD BE ABLE TO PUT A PRODUCT OUT KNOWING THAT IT HAS A VIBRIATION BUILT INTO THE VEHICLE AS FROM WHAT THE FORD ENGINEER SAID I HAD BETTER GET USE TO IT AND I DO NOT THINK THIS IS RIGHT AT ALL. I ALSO THINK FORD SHOULD FIX THESE VEHICLE OR GIVE ME BACK THE $24,000.00 I SPENT ON IT. I SNET A LETTER TO FORD ON 29 JULY 2000 AND THEY HAVE NOT ANSWERED IT AS OF TODAY. THANKS T AT ALL AT
