When traveling between 40 & 50 mph, there is a vibration throughout the vehicle. This vibration is distinct in the floorboards. The first time it was taken in for the problem, the mechanic stated it was a tire pressure problem & the pressure was adjusted. The second time, only a couple weeks later was for the same problem. This time the mechanic stated that he could not varify concern. However, when vehicle was picked up, a female service writer went for a ride with me and she noticed the problem. On the 3rd incident, a mechanic who was doing a state safety inspection noticed the vibration and strongley advised me to have the vehicle repaired. I have been in touch with Ford Motor Co. And they stated that another dealership would call to make an appt.. this has never taken place. I am concerned for the safety of my children and wife as well as myself.( dot number: Vncu tire size: P255/70R16 )
