AT APPROXIMATELY 40K ON THE VEHICLE, A PROBLEM BEGAN TO OCCUR WHEN A BUMP IN THE ROAD WAS HIT, RESULTING IN THE FRONT WHEELS SHIMMYING LEFT TO RIGHT FOR ABOUT A SECOND. OVER THE NEXT FOUR MONTHS, THE PROBLEM INTENSIFIED, LEADING TO A SEVERE SHAKE EMITTING FROM THE FRONT LEFT WHEEL. FORD RECOMMENDED AN ALIGNMENT AND THE STEERING DAMPENER (WHICH WAS ALREADY INSTALLED). I REPLACED THE TIRES, DAMPENER, TRACK BAR AND BUSHING, WHICH SOLVED THE ISSUE FOR SEVERAL WEEKS, BUT SOON FOUND THAT I CORRECTED A SYMPTOM AND NOT THE TRUE PROBLEM. ABOUT THIS TIME I FOUND OUT ABOUT YOUR INVESTIGATION AND DECIDED TO DEAL WITH THE PROBLEM, SINCE NO ONE COULD DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE IN THE SHOP....HOPING YOUR INVESTIGATION WOULD PROVIDE A FIX. ON JANUARY 15TH, 2008 I EXPERIENCED AN ENCOUNTER WHERE THE SHAKE OCCURRED AND HIT BLACK ICE, RESULTING IN LOSS OF CONTROL, SPINNING AND LANDING IN A DITCH, CAUSING BODY DAMAGE. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE SHAKING IS TO ALMOST COMPLETELY STOP OR OVER CORRECT THE STEERING (IF THERE IS ROOM TO DO IT). SINCE THERE WAS NO OTHER VEHICLE INVOLVED THE STATE TROOPER DIDN'T MAKE A REPORT OF THE INCIDENT. THE PROBLEM STILL HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. *TR
