Dynamic Drive Malfunction

Hello,

First time post. Recently purchased 2007 4.8i CPO, 20K miles. Have enjoyed the truck so far; however, one nagging thing that has happened on four separate occasions is a "Dynamic Drive failure." This warning usually comes on after I drive over a pothole with my driver's side front tire. After shutting off the car and restarting, the code disappears. I have taken the car to the dealer on two separate occasions. In the first visit they did some reprogramming, then in the most recent visit they replaced a defective relay and power distribution box. I thought the problem was solved, but yesterday after driving over a large pothole the warning came on again.

I have searched this forum and there are some threads that address this issue; however, I didn't detect any consensus on the cause or any fix(es) that have worked. Any ideas? Anyone with a similar story?

Thanks!

4K miles on mine so far and no issues whatsoever. It is the 1st time I hear about this issue. I would take it back to dealer and ask them to take another look.

See my post half way down. No problems since satellites and shocks were replaced.

Denalio,

Thanks for the reply. I did read your thread. Was your issue with Dynamic Drive or the Dynamic Stability Control? As far as I can tell, the two are not the same.
