The contact owns a 2007 Ford F-350 sd. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the rear wheel locked up without warning. Due to the failure, the contact temporarily loss control of the vehicle before the vehicle independently returned to normal operation. The contact had taken the vehicle to Ford of branford (301 e. Main st, branford, CT 06405) on three separate occasions however, the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 110,000. The VIN was unavailable.

There is an issue that is known to the Ford motor company involving this type of vehicle which is severe steering wheel and front wheel vibrations. I have received at least two letters from Ford concerning this issue. The one I have before me is listed as literature program 09l02. It states that Ford and NHTSA are studying the issue. Unfortunately that does little good for me as my vehicle is basically an accident waiting to happen. The severe steering wheel and front wheel vibrations render the vehicle unsafe to drive as they (the severe steering wheel and front wheel vibrations) happen with no provocation at times and the vibrations become so violent that keeping control of the steering wheel is extremely difficult, additionally controlling the vehicle is impossible. I have had the severe steering wheel and front wheel vibrations occur at speeds from @20mph to 55mph.
