Stop/Start shudder
Well back to the dealer I go...Been in too many times to count. Bought the truck for reliability and not happy so far. The last time I was in there I told the dealer about the shudder at stop/start and a vibration at 80km/hr. Turns out they the rear drive shaft was out of alignment and needed to be re-aligned but said he couldnt feel the shudder at stop/start.
Well took the service manager for a test drive...again... and he felt it (specially causes its getting worse now) Had it in the dealer this morning and he mentioned it could be the slip yoke between the two drive shafts... He has on order now a the whole unit for the transmission and the two drive shafts, the slip yoke, everything.... Hopefully this fixes it cause i'm done...
Anyone else have this problem?? The service manager said there were a ton of parts in stock so hes thinking a tsb will be out shortly for it...
Still have to go back in again for my brakes and have them completely redo the brakes as the keep clunking when backing up...this will be the second time for that...

Not sure if that pertains to your truck.
2010-2011 F-150 VEHICLES EXPERIENCING A FRONT END SHUDDER/ROUGHNESS/STEERING WHEEL NIBBLE WHEN BRAKING WITH NO ABS ACTIVATION. REPLACE ROTORS AND THE COMPLETE CALIPER ASSEMBLY (INCLUDING THE BRACKET (ANCHOR PLATE), BRAKE PADS AND CLIPS) BY UNBOLTING IT FROM THE FRONT KNUCKLE/SPINDLE ASSEMBLY. DON'T REMOVE THEBRAKE PADS FROM THE CALIPER BRACKET ASSEMBLY. USE SERVICE LABOR TIMES STANDARD (SLTS) OPERATIONS. ENGINEERING IS INVESTIGATING AND NEEDS THE PARTS BACK AS AN ASSEMBLY. PLEASE CONTINUE TO MONITOR OASIS AND SUBMIT GCR REPORTS. NOTE: PLACE AMARK IDENTIFYING A LEFT HAND AND/OR RIGHT HAND BRAKE ROTOR BEING SENT BACK FOR ANALYSIS.
Just like your dealer said, no TSB yet
Sorry about the capital lettering, that's how i copied it and didn't feel like re-typing it all.

it is with both stopping and starting though. I think he looked into it but doesnt sound like it. If what he recommends and will be doing doesnt work, the whole brake system is going to be re-done in April when I get my oil change....so we'll see...appointment is for March 19 so cant wait for that
