For comparison, I have had the same issue. And I went through 2 sets of generals and then finally defender ms. the Michelin’s have .75-1.5 oz per tire. 3-5 little stick on weights per tire.

That is way too many weights!!
Same issue. I traded in my ‘19 for a ‘23 in November. It had vibration issues from the start. I took it to Discount Tire and they balanced them. Better but still wobbly. Took it again. They said a tire was out of round. Took it to the dealer. They ordered a new tire and said fluid was leaking from the suspension, so they ordered those parts and replaced it. I’ve noticed it’s doing it again so I’ll have them check it out this week when I take it in for an oil change.

I bought a new 2015 Expedition Limited 4x4. Used strictly for passenger use.
At the first oil change at the selling dealer (about 3,000 - 4,000 miles), I was informed the RF shock was leaking and would need to be replaced. However - the shock was on “national backorder”.
Several months later, I received a call from the dealer that the shock arrived and I had to return to have it replaced.
Nothing has changed with Ford and its vehicle shock absorbers.

FYI, I’m at the dealer now getting the shock replaced. Took about a week to get the part and another week to fit it in the schedule. Not too bad.

Thanks to all who added replies. After a long wait to get a diagnostic appointment (a topic for another thread, someday) dealer service team determine my Hankook's - which were put on by previous owner at dealership just before trade in - are out of weight spec and cannot be road force balanced to correct to get them in spec. Dealer is working with parts department to replace them under warranty, but since I have to get 4 new tires I am getting price to make the replacement to a set of Michelin Defender's instead based upon all the reading and recommendation I have read here. Still a newbie to road force balance - still not clear why they can't correct the issue with a road force balance? Also, I assume biting the bullet on Michelin's will benefit me down the road too?

Im a fan of the Sailun Terramax HLT tires. Absolutely no road noise and no vibration at high speeds and very affordable

Not sure if it's fixed, but check to see if they put a fix-a-flat type goop in your tires. They always try to sell it as an addon.
There have been many posts pertaining to the material settling in one spot and causing out of balance vibration at 60+ mph.
