They checked wheels to ensure they were all true, which they were. Roadforce balanced, might ask them to double check the balance again.

I purchased a 2024 Stealth about a month ago, equipped with Pirelli Scorpion tires. I've previously used this brand on other SUVs without any issues. I'm experiencing the same vibration issue above 75 mph—it comes and goes throughout the vehicle.
I had the tires road-force balanced, and while it improved slightly, the vibration persists. I truly want to enjoy this Stealth, but encountering this type of issue on a vehicle priced over $75,000 is frustrating, especially as I commute around 70 miles daily on the Turnpike.

Hello, new to this forum. Surprised it’s taken me this long to look into this here! 2024 Expedition MAX Limited 22” with general grabber tires. Same vibration over 70mph. Complained from day 1 as I do a lot of highway driving. Has been to the dealer no less than four times. Road for balanced all of them multiple times, exchanged rims and tires with another car on the lot, replaced all four tires with new grabbers, problem persists. Even had the master tech perform some special road force with measurements and everything. I keep insisting it has to be something mechanical outside of the tires. Like driveshaft. Has anyone had success with eliminating the shudder?
Old school. Get a worm clamp big enough to fit around your driveshaft and apply it. It's a pia but moving it around and noticeing the change in vibration may head you in the right direction.
A new set of Pirelli Scorpion AS3 plus tires took care of the issue on ours! Dealer found one of the General Crappers was bad.

my 2019 Stealth came with those 22's, and while they rode OK with the CCD, I drive on a lot of really crappy remote roads and wanted somethign that wouldn't fail on a pinch flat, so swapped the 22's for 18's almost as soon as I got the SUV. Still using the crappy stock 18" tires that came on an '23 F150 FX4 ("Goodyear Wrangler Territory AT"), can't wait til they are worn enough to replace.
the 22's
the 18's
the 18's a year and a half and 15000 miles later, with a bit of Tahoe snow, from Saturday morning...

So, maybe, or maybe not related: I had a vibration that ramped up above 65 to 70mph. I had 5mm spacers on stock wheels with tires with around 20k miles on them.
I took the spacers on the front off, cleaned off the faces on the brakes and wheel (seemed ok) and put the wheels back on carefully tightening the bolts making sure the wheel was evenly put on. The vibration went away.

Hey new here! What was the final best fix outside of new tires? We have a 2024 max stealth and it has been shaking above 70mph since the day we bought it (brand new). We have serviced it 4 times for a fix and at 2 different dealers. Each time they have agreed there is excessive vibration, and ended up simply swapping out tires / rebalancing / moving weights etc. eventually the Tech at our local dealer said this vibration is a known issue, Ford knows about it, but doesn’t have a fix for the dealers (may be too costly for Ford) so we are hosed. Applied for Lemon Law, Ford denied after they magically upped their “acceptable” vibration ratings on April 23rd, 2025 - so we tried Buy Back which was also denied since it’s now within their acceptable vibration. It’s terrible. $80k down the tube, trade in value is garbage since $25k depreciation is already in. Looking for any solution- we really love the car minus the awful shaking + terrible experience with Ford. Also wild that we have bought 3 new cars from them and have been loyal customers and this is the repayment! LOL

I'd bring it to a good indepedent tire dealer, and ask them to balance the wheels and check them for out of round. I have no vibration in my 80K mile 2019 even at speeds approaching 100MPH.

Thanks. The Ford tech said that he believes it’s an issue on the 2021-2024 because they increased tow on it - I really have no clue but my brother also has a 2019 max with 0 shaking issues
