F-150 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 40,000 miles
When making slow turns in my 2003 Ford F-150 supercrew (only 42,000 miles on the truck), the truck has a vibration. Went to a Ford service technician, and they could not diagnose the problem, they suggested to re-pack the clutch packs, which was done. Vibration still occuring 1 week later. According to other's who also own Ford vehicles, this seems to be a huge problem that Ford states is normal wear and stating its a problem we have to live with.
