What owners wrote
My daughter was rounding a corner in her ford f150 king ranch truck make a hard pull to the right and she tried to correct it at that time her truck began to flip over twice. She ended up in a 10ft upside down totaled her truck and broke her collar bone. There was a wrecker driver on the scene that notice the rear axle on the drivers side of her truck had broke in half at the tire.
Bad shimmy / vibration front end. This has been this way since I bought it new. Have taken it back to ford on 4 different times. Once they tried to fix it but hasn't been resolved. Think it is a safety issue at higher speeds.
