Complaint Summary

STEERING

Owner Narrative

SHIMMY IN FRONT END FORCES LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. SHIMMY OCCURS AT SPEEDS OVER 50 MPH. HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH TIRE PRESSURE, CONTRARY TO FORD MOTOR COMPANY CLAIMS. THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT END STEERING DESIGN AND SHOULD BE REVIEWED IN GREATER DETAIL BY THE NHTSA AND FIXED WITH MORE THAN A LETTER FROM FORD TELLING ME TO CHECK THE AIR PRESSURE IN MY TIRES. AIR PRESSURE IS PERFECT AND THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS.
