| Ford 250 swb 4x4 2006, when crossing bridges, hitting bumps in the road or hitting pot holes, the trucks front end will go into a violent shimmy and shake episode, the only way to correct it is to slow down - this can be very dangerous on interstate or high speed roadways. front end alignments, tire balancing, new tires and steering stabilizers have been installed.nothing stops this front of from violently shaking. ford dealerships have been no help. this is a very dangerous problem in which ford probably needs to re-engineer the front end. please help put some pressure on ford to make a recall on these front ends. *tr | |||
