Description of the problem | My husband owns a 2017 ford f250. He purchased it brand new and since early on in owning the vehicle, he has experienced what i would call a death shake when he hits bumps or dips in the road. The vehicle shakes so violently that it causes neck and back pain each time. The truck shakes uncontrollably until he can get the truck to the side of the road and come to an almost complete stop. This causes extreme danger on the interstate and busy roads. Just today he was driving on the interstate and the truck shook so violently that he could barely control it. All lanes of traffic had to come to a complete stop while he was trying to regain control of the vehicle. He was able to maneuver the vehicle to the side of the interstate and come to a stop. This truck is extremely dangerous and should not be allowed on the roads. I know that their have been many complaints about this vehicle to the nthsa and i would encourage you to hold ford motor company responsible for correcting this malfunction of their vehicle. Ford motor is aware of the problems with this vehicle because they have had this problem in many of their trucks. My husband also has a 2008 f250 that does the same exact thing, just not as often. We had the vehicle scheduled for maintenance for this problem but have had to reschedule until his other truck is out of the shop. Please do something about this before someone is killed. Please hold ford motor accountable for these dangerous trucks. |
