F-150 FX4 5.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 25,000 miles

Out of the blue, the truck begins to shake and gets very bad at all speeds (happens once or twice a week). Shaking stops after stopping and putting truck into park and then back to drive. Started in 2004 and has been returned to dealer for fix approximately 6 times since April 2004 with no acknowledgment by dealer or remedy so far (Parkway Ford-Woodbridge, VA.."doesn't happen when tech drives it"). My solution looks to be to trade for a Silverado.

F-150 Lariat 5.4L Triton

  • Automatic transmission
  • 54,000 miles

Just that it took numerous visits and eventually I talked to a neutral friend who is a certified mechanic in Maryland who told me it had to be the clutch packs.
I told them that on the 3rd visit, but apparently they didn't think a GIRL! would know anything and shined me on, until last weekend when it got bound in 4H in the middle of a sharp L Hand turn in a parking lot, Hows that for embarrassing?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyhow after paying multiple deductibles I am now PEEVED and going for a reimbursement on those and the 4wd rental I HAD TO COVER due to no loaners in 4w @ this dealership!I .
There is also an annoying whistle @ cold temps that goes away for about 10 secs when gas is pressed, then just returns. My husband has a 04 F- 150 as well and his does the same! Wish me luck on Tues with my meeting with the owner if the Dealership! And I think the EXTRACARE warranty is a JOKE!!!! They have morons that take your call that don't know Jack about the mechanics of the vehicles they are covering, DUH! Kim-
