| On this date in 2010 my f250 sd had the left tie rod replaced along with a complete heavy duty front wheel brake service (including rotor replacement) and a four wheel alignment performed by a ford dealership. this was to address a severe shimmy and vibration that occurred whenever the brakes were applied. i'd consider the condition to be so severe that it was a safety concern on maintaining control of the vehicle at times. today, 5/22/12 at 112,800 miles and less than two years after the initial repair i am experiencing the exact same symptoms again. i've done some research on-line and have found multiple consumer complaints of this vehicle from model years 2000 - 2003 with this complaint. owners are having multiple occurrences of having to replace the rotors at a frequency of 10k - 20k miles. i'm taking my truck to the dealer in the morning for his inspection. with my personal experience and the number of complaints i've seen in my research i find it hard to believe that ford is not supporting any corrective action. | |||
