Hi Scotty, there are 2 problems on my farther's truck:
He bought this 2016 F150 3.5L Ecoboost xlt brand new, he drove it for 2 years about 6,000 miles, then the truck parked outside for another 3 years. I started to drive the truck from last year till now, the mileage is now 18,000miles, and the truck is still equiped with it's orginial all terrian tries & orginial brakes.
From last year till now, the truck has 2 problems:
1. Whenever the truck turns sharp with an slight high acceleration, the rear tires will skid. The feeling is like somewhere from the rear part of the car lost traction.
2. Whenever I go uphill, (doesn't need to be a steep hill, a mild uphill could cause the issue) if the truck is loosing speed while I step on the accelerator, the rare part of the truck will start vibrate. At this moment, if I step the accelerator harder, the vibrate will be harder till the truck's accelerated velocity is about 0. I do feel the vibration is somewhat from the bottom rear part of the truck, very likely is from the rear bed's bottom.
Please let me know how you think about this circumstance. Any tips would be appreciated.
Many thanks!
Ron
Tell you the truth. Was it Ben that old and having sat a long time? I'm sure the tires are no good. I would replace the tires. You might find that fixes everything
Hi Scotty, I just changed a full set of brand new tires for this F150. I would say the Problem #1 is solved, however, the Problem #2 is not solved. The vibration is not as strong as it was before, but I still experienced it under the same circumstances. Any ideas what would the problem be other than the tires?
