Vibration between 45-55 MPH

[Frankis843]

Any further updates on this? I too am noticing a buzz/vibration that almost feels like it is vibrating the floor pan at speeds of 50-55 MPH and in a decent cross wind. I don't notice it when there is no cross wind. But the buzz certainly isn't constant as it comes and goes with no rhyme or reason I can detect.

I currently have 2022 Lightning and previously had 2022 Expedition. The vibration is the same on both. Had the tires balanced and rotated then finally replaced the wheels and tires, did not fixed the vibration. On the Expedition, I had changed the trans fluid (12quarts), changed the diff fluid, change the transfer case fluid, did not make a difference on vibration. In my opinion the common thing on these vehicles maybe the cv-axles. The cv-axle may not be balanced properly at the factory. Took it multiple times to the Ford dealership, the tech confirm the vibration, but could not figure it out. I was told other vehicles with the same year and mileage behave the same, so it must be normal.

Hi Eddy! I can look into your Lightning's concern on my end. To get started, could you please send a private message over with the name/location of your local Ford dealer and your Lightning's VIN?

Thank you Ford for the response. Due to the vibration, I have sold the F150 Lightning. Many consumers of the F150, Expedition and Lightning feel the vibration in their vehicles. There is definitely issues with these vehicles. Since I have owned 2022 Expedition and 2022 Lightning which have different powertrains and yet exhibiting the same vibration, one would wonder which parts are the same between these two vehicles that causes the vibration. Or which vendor supply these parts? Hopefully this issue will be resolve or remedy provided to those who have this issue. Ford is innovative. Ford built the first hybrid SUV, the 2005 Ford Escape, which I have owned. Ford also built the first electric pick-up truck the F150 Lightning., which I also have owned. Innovation is great, but quality should also be part of it. Dealerships are no help. Will consider Ford again in the future.
