Description of the problem | The vehicle shakes violently in the front end after a bump in the road. Dealership replaced the steering damper and arm. Condition did not improve. Dealership replaced some bushings. Problem became worse. Dealership claims that the tires are in need of replacement. These conditions all occured at speeds around 65mph. The vehicle is unsafe to drive on the road. Ford does not have an answer to my problem. I complained about a knocking sound. Manager said it was some plastic bushings in the springs. After replacing some front end parts, the sound went away. Truck is at the dealership for at least a week on each occurrence. When the truck was brand new, the display would not work correctly. Took 6 months to resolve the problem and numerous trips to the dealership. The display was finally replaced. A vibrations in the seats occurs when pulling a trailer. Dealership says the trailer is causing the problem. When a different truck pulls the trailer, no vibrations occurs in the seats and floorboard. |
