I believe that would be the VSS or vehicle speed sensor.. Its located on the rear axle.. I would get the part directly from a ford dealer as the one I got from an auto parts store did not work correctly.. It cost about 33 dollars from ford and It is an easy change for a do it yourself person.. Kip

Tires would be the 1st place to check. If you seem to feel it more in your legs then it is likely the front, if felt more in seat bottom then could be a rear tire. Depending on how severe the vibration is there could be a tire developing a tread seperation and should be checked right away. A simple balance of the tire and wheel assemblies may be all that required also but when on a balancer they should be able to tell if the tire has a more severe problem.
Driveline components could cause vibrations also however if the above sounds like it fits then check that 1st.

I would look for a fault in the ignition system such as a cracked spark plug. Might need a scope check to put your finger on the problem
