Description of the problem | When driving at highway speeds(60 mph and up) and you hit a bump, hole, or deviation in the road surface the front tires begin to wobble out of control. The truck only has 11,000 miles on it and has developed a problem in the last 500 miles. The condition is so rough that i'm in fear of driving it because it is so scary give me some people at the bar. I refuse to allow my wife or daughters to drive the truck. The truck has been taking to the dealership and they agreed that there is a problem. They will be replacing the steering stabilizer. I'm truly happy that i have a dealer who is admitting there is a fault. Looking into this issue it's obvious that it's going to return and this is not a true fix it's only a band-aid to get us through the warranty time limit. I'm really hoping that ford will address the issue and properly fix these vehicles, some of these cost upwards of $75,000 and are just about impossible to drive due to the unsafe condition. |
