I had the latest update done last week, the truck seems to shift smoother with no shudder in gears 8, 9 and 10. However, I still feel a light vibration in the steering wheel and in the drivers seat ! This is getting so freakin annoying ! !

Hey there! I can look into your F-150’s vibration concerns on my end if you’d like. Will you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership info?
Dear @Ford Motor Company

Please...please stop with these "generous" offers to help. You just pretend to even be able to help, but you can't do anything.
This is the email I received from Ford after giving you my info:

Good morning,



I am reaching out to you in reference to the case that was created yesterday. I would recommend you make an appointment at your local Ford dealer to get this issue resolved. We here at the customer relationship center do not have any technical information we can provide. My role is to partner with the service manager while the vehicle is in service. Once the vehicle is at the dealer, I will be happy to assist. You may also ask the service manager would this repair be covered under warranty.



Ford Motor Company ®
Please...just stop.
We don't need to send you our VIN number just to hear "call the service dept.". We are mature enough to know this without your "help".

I called my dealership yesterday to have the tires '' road force balanced '' as a last try to get this thing fix, but I'm doubtful. This is the last time I'm going to spend anymore time and energy on this truck. If this don't work, she will be going up for sale. Looking at getting Acura MDX Type S. The Acura is what I was thinking about getting before getting my limited, I should have just got the Acura right from the get go !

Update: took the truck in to the local dealership recently to have the vibration issue looked at again. They had it all day (7:30am-5:30pm) only to call me and tell me that it is the tires. Give me a break….How unlucky is it to have a bad set of BFG KO2s and now a bad set of toyo AT3s smh. Has anyone had any luck with a solution? Is there a actual problem with the drivetrain in the 21 models? I’m at a loss.

Lots of us 2022 guys are affected, as well. Just trying to get used to the vibration personally, but yeah... It sucks.

Same story here. It is not the tires. It is in the torque converter/transmission. It is a known issue. Ford declared mine characteristic, which means they will not fix it. I just sold my truck back to the dealer.

Sounds like a trade in is in the near future. But for what? 🤔

One thing I have noticed since the latest update was performed is that the transition from electric to ice is really rough now. Never noticed this pre update !

Looks like I'm joining the vibrations club. Just a little over 200 miles on the truck so far. Taking it to Discount Tire tomorrow to see about the Road Force balance and tire/rim match. Hoping it'll fix it but after reading this thread I'm not too sure it will now.

They found two of my tires a couple ounces off using the road force balance machine. I didn't get to hear which ones they were nor asked, I should have. Right after that I drove 70 miles to visit some friends and it was definitely a much better ride. Majority of that was highway speeds too. I highly recommend anyone that haven't tried this machine to give it a go.
