Owner Narrative
I OWN A 2009 FORD F350 KING RANCH THAT I PURCHASED USED 2 YEARS AGO FROM A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, THE FRONT END VIOLENTLY SHAKES WHEN IT ENCOUNTERS ANY DEFORMITY ON THE ROAD. THE SHAKES ARE SO INTENSE AND UNCONTROLLABLE THE I HAVE TO TRY AND PULL OFF THE ROAD TO NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THE SHAKING DOES NOT STOP UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY STOPPED. I HAVE HAD THE BODY MOUNTS REPLACED, AN ALIGNMENT- BECAUSE I WAS TOLD PROPER TIRE INFLATION WOULD FIX IT- THE SHOCKS REPLACED, AND STEERING STABILIZER REPLACED. NONE OF THESE REMEDIED THE SITUATION. I AM TRYING TO SELL THE VEHICLE BUT SINCE THE DIFFERENT MECHANICS WE HAVE USED DON'T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO DIAGNOSE/FIX THE PROBLEM, I AM UNABLE IT TO SELL IT WITH THIS COMMONLY KNOWN 'DEATH WOBBLE' THAT FORD IS AWARE OF. I ALSO CAN'T SAFELY DRIVE IT. I HAVE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE, IN THE LAST MONTH, A COMPLETE FAULTY FUEL SYSTEM ($9,000) AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER, IN 2011, HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE MOTOR-WHICH WE WERE UNAWARE OF. *TR
