2006 Ford F-350 SD Wheels Problems

“Was traveling on the highway at a rate of speed of 55mph on a 2006 f350 super duty 4x4 when I went over an uneven surface on the highway which caused the front end to shake violently almost causing me to hit a vehicle on my right hand side. Though I had experienced a flat but everything looked fine. Cannot drive this vehicle in this condition. Tire pressure on all wheels is fine.”

“I purchased a new set of continental tires from colony tire located in raleigh nc in late 2012 early 2014. I drive a F-350 SD. In august 2013 I was traveling with my son on nc I 40 e bound around 400 ml marker when 1 of the tires blew out. I didn't think much of it, 1st blow out on that truck in 8 yrs. The 2 continental tire blew out december 12th 2013 on I 40 e bound also near 411 mile marker. At that time I was thinking what are the odds but again things happen. The third tire blew out while traveling to greenville sc. That was in february 20, 2014. I didn't know what to think. …”

“I am the original owner of this 2006 Ford f350 purchased dec. 2005. November 2010 I had a 20 oem Ford wheel crack. Crack was 5 long running parallel with the outside rim edge, 1 in, and between the spokes. Replaced with a used oem wheel. May 2012 I had another wheel crack which resulted in a blowout at 60mph. This crack ran 90 degrees from the rim edge to 1.25 under the bead resulting in air loss. Replaced with a used oem wheel and new oem 20 tire. Aug.1 2012 a third wheel cracked exactly like the first resulting in rapid air loss and blowout on highway traveling 60mph. …”

“I was traveling north on i59 through meridian mississippi at approximately 8:00 pm yesterday on 06/22/2012. I came across an overpass at about 70 MPH when the rough surface of the bridge caused the truck to shake very violently in the front end. I immediately tried to control/correct it by holding the steering wheel firmly and braking. It started to subside and then started again. I held the steering wheel straight and firm, and braked harder until the shaking stopped. I had slowed to approximately 40 to 50 MPH before it had stopped. This all took place in matter of seconds. …”

“Experienced severe vibrations and shimming after hitting a bump in the road. Had to bring the truck to a complete stop before I could go on. I though I must of had a flat tire, but no. Took the truck to the dealer, they said they tightened some things and adjusted the tire pressure. A couple of months later it happened again. I went straight to the local garage to have the tires checked, but the tire pressure was fine. It continues to happen about twice a year with no reason, just depends how I hit a bump on the road. It usually happens when crossing a bridge on the interstate. …”
