What's wrong, in plain English
Certain Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty trucks with gasoline engines and aluminum driveshafts have underbody heat and noise insulators that can come loose. If an insulator contacts the driveshaft, it can damage the driveshaft and cause it to fracture, and the truck could also move unexpectedly while parked if the parking brake isn't engaged.
What you should do
2. Contact a Ford dealer or call Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 to schedule an inspection.
3. Dealers will inspect and repair the driveshaft as needed and properly secure the underbody insulators, free of charge.
