I bought a 1987 F-350 mason dump truck new and have suffered through that front end death wobble for 27 years never thinking it was recalled because I was never notified! Don't know why I never looked for info before! Driving that truck drives me CRAZY!

Do you drive a 1987 FORD F-350?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
