Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: 2011 XLT 4x4 - Vibrates And Jerks About 65 Mph?
Sep 28, 2014
Driving to work the other day on the expressway going about 65 and my truck starts vibrating and jerking like crazy. I thought i had a blow out , so I checked my tires and they were ok. Then, I thought I may had run over something. I continued off the ramp and drove on the highway to work, no sooner than a couple of minutes later it happened again. I had a tow truck take it to the dealer, this was Thursday. It's now Sunday and I haven't heard from customer service after they told me they'd call..... Its an EcoBoost by the way.

09 stx 2wd 4.6L- I have a 2.5'' leveling kit and 33'' bfg a/t tires. The problem is when I make sharp turns, or turn and go over small bumps. Whats happening is something seems to catching or rubbing it kind of jerks towards the opposite of where I am turning and causes the traction control to slow my truck (sucks on tight off-ramps/ u-turns). this happens at pretty much any speed although it gets worse as speed increases. At first I thought it was the steering stoppers but don't have any wear on them, tires do not rub anywhere. My dealer and a local off road shop cant figure it out...

I am having issues with my 2011 Matrix S. It started off bucking slightly when shifting. As time went on it started clunking at random. When it clunks, the whole car jerks violently then will start driving again. One time it clunked (if I wasn't wearing a seatbelt I would have been in the dash) I lost all power to my wheels while my car was revving at around 3000rpm, it did a large jerk/clunk and then I had power to my wheels again. Lately they have been just large clunks without losing wheel power. My car always seems to revv abnormally now and sometimes when trying to accelerate, I can have me petal to the floor and zero acelleration.
I've been in frequent contact with a Toyota dealer and they are great. I can't randomly recreate the episodes so it's hard for them to be able to diagnose the issue. I'm going to make an appointment for them to do a computer read to see if any codes have been thrown.

My 2011 3.7 CC seems like it is missing at speed.
If I am around 75 or so in 6th is vibrates, but downshifting to 5th or 4th seem to take it away.
I am going in tomorrow and have the tires rotated and balance, but I think it is somewhere else. It has a little over 42,000 miles

I bought a 2011 F-150 a year ago. Today was I driving my truck like usual and for some odd reason, it revved up to 3500 and then my truck shooked like I hit a big pump. I'm debating whether I have a faulty transmission or something. I barely touched the foot pedal. I wasn't evening barely putting any pressure on the accelerator and for some odd reason, it revved up that high and something shook my truck. I know a little bit about vehicles, my transmissions are not my thing. I'm gonna' take it in Monday morning to work.

We purchased a brand new 16' tandem trailer last night. Plugged it in to my husbands 2011 F150 and hooked it up, lights went on, directionals, hazards, and break lights will not go on UNLESS the trailer light itself is taken off the trailer. We are thinking a grounding issue.
We pulled our 2011 F150 up to another trailer, same issue, only the running lights works.
Two days ago a old single axle trailer worked fine, break lights, directionals, everything.
When the owner put electrical tape around the bolts that connected the lights to the trailer the directionals worked, then they tightened up the nuts it touched the metal part of the trailer, it (meaning directionals, hazards, break lights) stopped working, (but the running lights stayed on). Are we tripping or what the heck is going on here?

The fuse was not blown. The bus connection for that fuse was burned from a high capacitance caused when there is a loose connection.......period.

Do these 2006 f150 rims will fit on a 2011 f150 (17" rims). I got a new 2011 f150 but have steel wheels and looking to upgrade for cheap and there seems to be a lot more rims for earlier f150s .....

On wife's 2011 ESCAPE, we want to install another "cigarette lighter" type female power port that is live only when the key is on. (to power up the GPS without having to unplug/replug it every time.)
Any best place to tap into an easily accessible wire that is hot only while vehicle is running---maybe off the power window circuit, and what color wire am I looking for & where without too much disassembly?

On my 2011 F-150 XL, regular cab long bed with 3.7L V6, each time I open either door, the front park and side marker lights, the taillights, the license plate lights, and the bed illumination lights ALL come on (12 in all), day or night. They do turn off after about 25 sec, but how to keep them from coming on???

2011 F-150 crew cab 4x4, problem started when truck wouldn't start like a dead battery. Jumped and immediately started no problem, drove a half hour and stopped at store, started fine and all good. Parked at house and friends stopped over and reported truck tail lights / brake lights were flashing. Fellow mechanic recommended unplugging trailer plug receptacle behind bumper and waited but same thing, lights blink every couple seconds. Who's the electrical gremlin slayer champion ??? Any ides or cures for known issues of this nature ?
