I first noticed this about a month ago but didn't think much of it. It's getting worse though. What's happening is, whenever I'm slowing down to stop, I get a driveline vibration at about 35-40 mph until I get to around like 20 mph. It doesn't happen on acceleration, only when deccelerating. It feels like a driveshaft out of balance but that would cause vibrations all the time. I don't feel it in the steering wheel, I feel it in the seat of my pants mostly. My initial though is a carrier bearing going bad, but I think that would also happen all the time. I have searched here and on another forum but didn't find anything similar. Has anyone else ever had this issue or have an idea what it might be?

I’m having a similar issue along with resonating low bass droning type sound as the vehicle slows down in RPM’s. Between 1500 and 1000 RPM. Ford is saying it’s exhaust related. Hard to believe a new vehicle with 48,000 miles needs full exhaust replacement.

The exhaust flex pipe probably broke. Have them check it out, warranty item.
