“1. Traveling at 65 MPH hitting a bump in the road 2. Front axle begins oscillating with such violence that control of the truck is difficult until slowed down, the entire vehicle shakes to the point you feel it will come apart. I was traveling on a highway when I experienced this. I nearly caused an accident. I'm terrified when this will happen on a icy road. Someone is going to get killed. 3. Nothing. Apparently there is no fix as it is unknown. Ford is aware of the problem but refuses to be held responsible. Vehicle information: ? 2006 ? Ford ? F350 ?? Entire front suspension component ? …”
