Question 2015 f250 front bottoming out?

Hey guys wanted to see if anybody else had a problem with their 15 f 250 front end feeling like it is bottoming out on dips in roads not all dips just ones greater than a foot a cross mine is a platinum version and have had in shop several times they say they cannot reproduce but shop guy road with me and said it had a problem. Last time they could only find tie rod end just out of specs. but I drive it and it does the same thing. would a lift help with this problem as I think it is bottoming out on frame as shocks maybe worn out or springs bad no more than 3" in front 1 " in rear

I've got a 2015 F350 and it's never come close to bottoming out... even when I've had my 3000 lb truck camper in the back? I drive it on some pretty tough beach trails with the camper (slowly) but never had a problem! Again, it's an F350 though!

I see you wrote this in 2017. have you found a fix for this problem? I have a 2015 250 doing the same thing!! It is so annoying. I have a 2006 F-250 that rides like a dream. Both are service trucks for my company. I really need to know what to do about this!

First we need to know just what is really happening that you call bottoming out.

If everything is still stock, shocks and springs may have gone beyond their usefulness.

Mileage will also have a bearing. Suggest you obtain estimates on replacing front springs and shocks.
