I am finding more and more people with this shaking problem with the 2004 fi50 4x4. We need to all somehow get emails sent to attorney general. to get these recalled. The last time was very dangerous as I was on the highway and suddenly it started shaking (feels like ya came onto a washboard road.) then gets worse. I had to slow quickly and get to shoulder and shut truck off and wait a bit then it seems to be ok till only god knows when and where it will do it again. I am a disabled veteran and it looks like I will soon trade this in and be driving a Nissan or Toyota to the Veterans hospital in Ann Arbor Michigan, cause I don't like Dodge, and my buddies have lots a trouble with their Silverados and especially the Colorado trans. The Ford dealer thinks I am nuts doesn't want to admit these f150 do this.Its a shame too because I really really like my f150 but I am tired of worrying about what is about to break and how much it will cost to fix it..

Out of the blue the shaking starts and will not stop until the truck is turned off. It feels as if one is driving over a very rough washboard type of road or like traveling with a flat tire. It's very unnerving when traveling at 60 mph. It has yet to be diagnosed properly.
