About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
At speeds between 45 and 60 there is a vibration in the front end of the car, especially noticeable when hitting small road bumps. The vibration can be felt in the entire car and not just the steering wheel. At speeds of 56 and 57 mph the vibration can be felt on smooth roads. All tires have been replaced and all wheels and tires balanced by Ford. The front struts have also been replaced by Ford with no help to the vibration problem. The vibrations are more intenese at times but always there at certain speeds.

My car has a very bad vibration in the steering wheel, when the car is in drive, it can be felt every where in the car. We have taken it back to the dealer they just say, it is the characteristic of my vehicle, I have tryed to see what customer relations at Ford Motor Co can do and they say the same thing.I think they are just put me off untill the warranty runs out. Also found a sheared off nut and bolt laying on the frt drivers side floor board, the Ford dealer said they looked under the dash and found none missing, they say the bolt was tract in the vehicle from someones shoe. Note.my car was in the dealer body shop on November 2000, and I found the bolt in Feb 9, 2002, gee are they trying to say we have not swept the car out for over 15 mos. I don't think so.could this car be an accident waiting to happen?
