 I have a ford f-250 sd 4x4 truck. when driving on the highway, if i hit any potholes or bumps in the road the front end shakes violently and causes me to have to slow to speeds well below the limit. this has nearly caused me to wreck my truck or have some rearend me on the highway 3 different times. at this point the truck just sits because i cant figure out what to do about it. *tr

 Tl*the contact owns a 2002 ford f-250 super duty. while making a left turn at approximately 10-15 mph, the steering made an unfamiliar noise. the contact was unable to move out of the intersection. within seconds, pins began to loosen from the gear box. the vehicle was towed to the dealer and they stated that the shredding of the bolts caused the pins to separate from the steering gear box. the vehicle was repaired at the cost of $932. the failure and current mileages were 105,662. updated 1/8/09 *cn the consumer stated he saw a bolt fly out into the intersection. the hear box was no longer attached to the frame. updated 01/14/09.*jb

 I read that an investigation of ford super duty trucks handing problems after hitting a bump at highway speeds. it said that 2005-2007 had the problem but i have 2002 superduty crew cab that is also scary when you hit a bump at highway speeds. it can throw partially into another lane.
