Two problems related to rear suspension have been reported for the 1997 Ford F-450. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The vehicle rear end snaps violently jerking the back of the truck sideways. It does this 2-3 times a week. It has never done it when the dealer test drives. They tell me they have no idea what causes this and will not attempt to fix the problem.
