2018 FORD F-250 Unknown Or Other Problems

My backup camera went black. There is a recall on this product 25V572 or Ford 25S89. My vin number is not on the list. How do i get my vin number on this list since the problem is identical to the recall prolem?

Ford recall 18N03 was preformed in 2022. Now in 2024/2025 passenger front door will not latch during freezing temperatures.

My sunroof is broken and in operatable, and the glass will not close all the way keeping the inside of the vehicle open to the elements. The noise is also very loud when traveling on the freeways. Ford quoted me $5000 to repair the system. The service advisor told me the Ford went with a different manufacturer because the parts kept braking from the old manufacturer. The advisor also told me that they would need to replace everything from the motor, tracks, etc., because of their change in manufacturing. If Ford knows that the parts are defective, why isn't there already a recall on this system?

The lug nuts have decorative caps that are easily damaged during ordinary maintenance. Once damaged, the nuts cannot be properly torqued. This puts proper tightening at risk. This then increases the result of the nuts loosening, falling off, and losing control of the vehicle.

Our 2108, Ford F-250, Lariat model with extended cab, the sunroof brackets (plastic) broke and the sunroof can not be opened or closed, and became loose. The brackets that hold the glass in place are made of plastic and they deteriorated to the point where they would no longer hold the glass in place. This is possibly a safety concern as the glass may detach from the roof and cause injury in the cab, or possibly fly off and impact oncoming vehicles or vehicles behind the F250. These brackets should not be made of plastic due to the very large glass sunroofs weight. This is a known problem as indicated by many others on youtube.com, and other online website postings. Our F250 was taken into our local Ford dealership service department and upon inspection the tech indicated that both sides of the plastic arm brackets were broken and the window was non-operable. As per technicians official vehicle report it required replacement of FL3Z 1651070 E :GUIDE. Cost was $945.47 to replace plastic brackets which will more than likely break again after minimal strain due to the heavy weight of the glass sunroof.

Death wobble after crossing rumble strips on road

We're we driving about 70mph. The truck starts violently shaking, we're were barely able to steer to the shoulder of the highway. We put it in park check all the tires and undercarriage, seeing no visible issues we resume driving. About 2 miles down the road going about 60 mph the violent shaking occurs AGAIN. We slowed down to about 30 mph and the truck snaps out of it. There was absolutely nothing on the road that could have caused this. Truck is regularly serviced and barely has 21000 miles. It's an occasional driver not daily used.

I loaned my F250 to my son to move his furnishings from his apartment in Chicago back to Iowa. Once he got on the interstate, the truck began to shake violently causing him to feel he would lose control of the vehicle. The only way to stop it was to pull over and stop the vehicle. This could have resulted in severe injury or worse. I am beyond furious, upset and am going to escalate this known problem in any way I can including media watchdogs, social media, etc. After a short search on the web, I find out it is a known defect but nothing has been done by Ford or your organization. My truck had 12,000 miles on it…nothing should be worn out and in no way should there have been a safety danger to my son by driving it. I would like communication from your organization immediately as Ford tells me it is up to you to issue a recall and you have not done so. This is unconscionable in every possible way.

Twice in the last two years I've experienced what is being called the "death wobble". A very violent shaking of the steering wheel as well as the vehicle after driving over some unforseen divet in the road at highway speeds. The first time was in the summer of 2020 and the second time just yesterday, 12-5-22. Both occured on 65 Hwy. Once on the east side of Sedalia and the later on the west side of Sedalia. This is going to get some one killed.

Back up camera has become very hazy. It is difficult to see people in back of vehicle.

This is a turbo diesel F250 Ford Truck which caught on fire and was completely destroyed while on the interstate in VA. Our safely was very much at risk as the truck was fully engulfed in flames within minutes. We were able to pull off the side of the highway and get ourselves and the dog out of the cabin just before it would have been impossible to do so. Complete total loss; we do not know at this time what the cause of the fire was; there were no warning lamps, messages on the dash to alert us. The driver happened to notice some smoke coming from the hood and quickly pulled over to check to see what might be going on. Within seconds, the hood started to buckle as the fire raged under the hood and we were fortunate to be able to have pulled over as quickly as we did. We lost everything inside the truck including all the camping gear, etc that was in the bed. The front of our trailer that we were pulling was also heavily damaged. Very very frightening event and we are so thankful that we were able to escape without harm, other than some scratches, minor cuts as we frantically tried to help stop the flames with an extinguisher we had onboard our trailer we were pulling.

My wife and I went 3 hours south to go fishing on the way home on the interstate the vehicle started to shake violently and we had to pull over to the shoulder. Looked around and couldn't see anything wring. We headed back on the highway and about 15 miles down the road it started again, again stopped. We finally got home safely. Since April the truck hasn't gone over 35 miles per hour until this past Saturday. I had to run to Peoria which is about 45 mins away. On the way home the wobbling started again, Thais time I was with my 9 year old daughter. I slowed down to 50-52 and made it safely home. I have told my wife and children no one is driving the truck on the highway until we figure out what is going on.

We had previously experienced severe shaking when driving at freeway speeds. We took the pickup to a dealership and the replaced the drag link at no cost and we paid to have tie rod ends replaced which they said would fix the issue. We took our first road trip in the vehicle this weekend and the problem is rven more frequent and severe. We almost had 3 accidents because the truck is very difficult to steer once the vibration starts.

While driving on the freeway at 75 miles an hour the whole truck started shaking violently! I had to back out of it to get it to stop. I continue driving at 65 miles an hour and I hit a small bump in the road and it again started shaking violently! It started approximately 30 minutes ago and has happened three more time!

Driver door is freezing and will not latch, having to hold the door while driving to keep from flying open. Recall done at dealership, two years ago. Johnson City Ford, Johnson City, TN. Dealership is stating that there is no coverage on those repairs after the recall "repair". The dealership failed to correct recall the first time for same issue.

Driving on highway went over bridge expansion joint and steering wheel and front tires began shaking severely had to pull over almost causing accident. Now it happens more often on any bump. Have heard this is called the death wobble and see how this could be EXTREMELY dangerous for my family. Don’t understand with so many complaints that nothing has been required of FORD to address and fix this super unsafe problem. I hope by putting this on the record that if something happened, there would be documentation of my complaint to hold Ford responsible. A response from you would be appreciated. Thank you.

On 05/13/2020 truck was in an auto accident and declared total loss on NICB. Crash report doesn't reflect injuries. Speed limit on the highway says 60, on Google maps. Also, the officer's description doesn't make sense. There are 3 units, including trailer. Other vehicle is unit 3.... I also don't understand how the person in the 3rd unit did not have injuries. TXDOT Crash ID: 17689202.1 / 2020186795 Case ID: 2020-1548 USDOT: 1086178 Truck # 327 When I contacted the tow company, was informed there is no history of ever towing the truck! Owner of truck listed was not correct. Actual owner was Vertical Limit Construction which has two branches of the name. (TX) Vertical Limit Construction LLC Vertical Limit Construction, LLC (MN) Interstate, Utility Construction, Cellular Tower, End to End, Turnkey Services. Parent: QualTek Services. Trailer info DID list the company as owner, however. When I did a search, there has been repairs and history doesn't show of the truck ever being in an accident. There is an incomplete recall on Ford website but none on NHTSA. Vertical Limit Construction was listed as terminated April 2019 and dissolved July 2020.

I have noticed my F250 which I bought brand new and just noticed this issue had just over 29,000 miles on it that the steering was getting loose. A few thousand miles ago I noticed when I drove over a bump in road or pothole the steering shakes some, not normal. Today I have almost 32,000 miles on it, steering very loose, 19% steering turn does not respond and when I hit a bump it scares me as the steering wheel shakes very violently up and down and steers left and right and swerves into next lane on its own. It is very bad now and I am scared to drive it. It is my daily driver ad I have no other choice. I work for the Department of Defense US ARMY TACOM. This truck should be recalled and repaired immediately before somebody gets seriously hurt or worse, dies from this steering issue. Please let me know how you can assist.

THE TRUCK JUST STARTED TO WOBBLE AND GOT WORSE AND WORSE! SCARED THE HELL OUT OF ME AND MY SON WITH HIS THREE FRIENDS INSIDE!! HORRIBLE FEELING TO HAVE! DID RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THIS IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING TO OTHER F250 OWNERS. NOW MY TRUCK SITS IN THE DRIVEWAY BECAUSE DEALERSHIP IS 2 WEEKS OUT TO JUST GET AN APPOINTMENT!!! MY WOBBLE IS OCCURRING AT FROM 40MPH-65MPH

2018 FORD F-250 DIESEL 4 WHEEL DRIVE - ABOUT 25,000 MILES ON IT I EXPERIENCED MY FIRST "DEATH WOBBLE" I HAD GONE AROUND A CURVE ON A NARROW ROAD (PROBABLY 45 MPH) AND HIT A BUMP JUST RIGHT AND THERE IT WENT, SCARED THE SNOT OUT OF ME, HIT THE BRAKES, IT STOPPED, I THOUGHT THAT WAS WEIRD. DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN FOR A LONG TIME. THEN A FEW MONTHS LATER I WAS DRIVING DOWN A 4 LANE BUSY ROAD WITH A SEMI-TRUCK NEXT TO ME AND IN THE 20 MILES I DRIVE ON THAT ROAD TWICE DAILY (BETWEEN 55-65 MILES AN HOUR), IT DID IT 4 TIMES. THEN NOTHING. I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE B/C I NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. IT WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT SHOP FOR INSPECTION 3/19/20, ALL SUSPENSION AND JOINTS, AND EVERYTHING ELSE FORD IS SUGGESTION COULD BE AN ISSUE HAS BEEN INSPECTED AND FOUND TO NOT BE LOOSE OR BROKEN. NEW TIRES ARE BEING PUT ON IT THIS WEEKEND WITH ANOTHER ALIGNMENT. AT THIS POINT AFTER ALL OF THAT IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN I WILL BE TRADING THIS VEHICLE. EVERYTHING I SEE SAYS FORD KNOWS AOBUT IT, HAS KNOWN ABOUT IT, AND IS EITHER UNWILLING TO FIX IT, OR DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. THERE NEEDS TO BE A MAJOR RECALL ON ALL THE PARTS IN QUESTION IMMEDIATELY TO MAKE US GULLIBLE IDIOTS THAT BOUGHT THEIR PIECES OF JUNK AT LEAST FEEL LIKE WE CAN USE THEM SAFELY! I AM JUST NOW HEARING THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS FAMILY OF TRUCKS, IF I HAD KNOW THIS WAS THIS BIG OF AN ISSUE I WOULDN'T HAVE BOUGHT IT AND THAT IS WHAT FORD IS COUNTING ON AND THAT IS WRONG! I DO NOT FEEL SAFE TAKING MY FAMILY ANYWHERE IN THIS VEHICLE, IT'S THE ONLY ONE I HAVE AND I AM 1,800 MILES FROM ANY FAMILY, IF I HAVE TO GO HOME FOR AN EMERGENCY I WILL HAVE TO RENT A VEHICLE AT THIS POINT B/C I CAN'T IMAGINE RUNNING DOWN AN INTERSTATE AT 85MPH AND THIS HAPPEN!

OVER THE PERIOD OF A COUPLE OF MONTHS I'VE HAD 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS THAT WHEN I'M GOING OVER 60 AND HIT ANY KIND OF BUMP OR UNEVEN PATCH OF ROAD MY TRUCK STARTS VIOLENTLY SHAKING CAUSING ME TO LOSE CONTROL UNTIL MY VEHICLE IS BACK DOWN UNDER 45 MILES PER HOUR. THE LAST TIME IT HAPPEN I WAS DOING 55 AND SPED UP A LITTLE TO GET AROUND ANOTHER TRUCK BEFORE COMING UP ON AN EXIT RAMP, I SPED UP TO 60 AS I WAS CHANGING LANES TO GO AROUND AND IT STARTED SHAKING THE ENTIRE TRUCK EXTREMELY ROUGH LIKE IT WOULD IF YOU HAD A BLOWOUT, IT THREW ME OVER INTO THE LEFT SIDE LANE WHILE ON US HWY 287 UNDER HWY 69 IN THE TUNNEL WHERE I NEARLY HIT THE OTHER TRUCK, LUCKILY THE DRIVE REALIZED SOMETHING WAS WRONG AND MOVED OVER ONTO THE SHOULDER AVOIDING ME. I WAS ABLE TO REGAIN CONTROL AND MAKE IT HOME. LOOKING BACK NOW AFTER THE FACT I REALIZE THIS PROBLEM HAD BEEN HAPPENING FOR SOME TIME HOWEVER THERE WAS NO WAY FOR ME TO REALLY KNOW. I HAD FELT SMALLER TREMBLES BUT THOUGHT IT WAS JUST THE ROAD OR ME NOT REALIZING WHAT EVERYTHING WAS LEADING UP TO. I'M A 5FT 2-3IN TALL FEMALE AND THIS TRUCK WAS MY DREAM CAR THAT I WORKED REALLY HARD TO PAY FOR. I CALLED FORD LAST YEAR ABOUT HAVING IT FIXED THEY SAID WARRANTY WOULDN'T COVER IT. ALSO THE "COOLING" WENT OUT IN MY SEAT WITHIN THE FIRST 6 MONTHS, FORD ALSO REFUSED TO FIX THAT AND SAID IT WASN'T UNDER MY WARRANTY, WHICH BTW I BOUGHT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. MY MOTHERBOARD IN MY COMPUTER OR SCREEN IN THE DASH ALSO WENT OUT HOWEVER THEY DID REPAIR THIS BUT THEY TRIED TO CHARGE MY FOR A PLASTIC PEICE THEIR TECHNICIAN BROKE AND IN WHICH I HAD TO POINT OUT WHEN I PICKED UP AND NEARLY HAD TO THROW A TEMPER TO GET THEM TO REPAIR THE DAMAGE THEY CAUSED. I HAVEN'T BEEN VERY HAPPY, NOW I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE IN MY VEHICLE. HELP PLEASE!

WE HAVE EXPERIENCED WHAT OTHERS DESCRIBED AS THE DEATH WOBBLE. WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND COMING UPON ROUGH OR UNEVEN ROAD, MORE OFTEN ON A CURVE, THE TRUCK BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND DOES NOT SEEM TO RECOVER UNTIL YOU COME TO COMPLETE STOP. THIS IS HAPPENED AT SPEEDS OF 45 MILES AN HOUR AND TWICE WHILE TRAVELING 75 ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS WAS VERY FRIGHTENING AND DANGEROUS EVEN FOR OTHERS. WE HAD TO PULL OVER WHEN WE COULD DO SO SAFELY AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THIS IS VERY DIFFICULT AS ONE TIME WE WERE HAULING A CAMPER AND IT BEGAN ON AN OVERPASS WITH NO SHOULDER. ALL RECOMMENDED AND REGULAR SERVICE HAS BEEN PERFORMED BY FORD DEALERSHIP. THIS ISSUE BEGAN BEFORE OUR WARRANTY WAS UP AND FORD DEALERSHIP NOW CLAIMS IT IS NOT COVERED. WE ARE NOT HAPPY OWNERS OF A 69K LEMON.

DRIVING ON INTERSTATE HWY AT APPROXIMATELY 70MPH WHEN I DROVE OVER A SMALL BUMP. IMMEDIATELY THE STEERING WHEEL AND ENTIRE FRONT END OF TRUCK STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY.

THE AC LINE FITTING OVERHEATED CAUSING IT TO EXPLODE AND ARC WHICH IN TURN MELTED THE PRIMARY WIRING HARNESS FOR THE ENGINE. THIS ALSO RESULTED IN THE WIRE CATCHING FIRE AND CAUSING BURN DAMAGE TO THE FIREWALL. THE VEHICLE WAS GOING THROUGH A CAR WASH WHEN THE INCIDENT OCCURRED. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MY MECHANIC THAT THE WATER FROM THE CAR WASH PREVENTED FURTHER FIRE DAMAGE.

MY TRUCK HAS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM TWICE NOW. THE "DEATH WOBBLE" IN MY FRONT END WHEN IN GOT OVER A ROUGH PATCH OF ROAD OR A BRIDGE JOINT GOING BETWEEN 55-75. IT WAS FIXED ONCE WHILE MY WARRANTY WAS ACTIVE NOW SINCE MY WARRANTY IS UP THEY WILL NOT COVER IT. MULTIPLE TIMES DRIVING IF I WASN'T HOLDING ON TIGHT OR IF MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC. NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS. EVERYTHING ON MY TRUCK IS STOCK AND IT HAPPENED ROUGHLY 15K AND NOW AT 43K MILES. IM WORRIED IT WILL KILL SOMEONE AND ME AND OR MY FAMILY WHEN WE ARE IN THE TRUCK. I DON'T LET THEM RIDE VERY OFTEN UNLESS WE ARE GOING SOMEWHERE IN TOWN WHERE MY SPEED IN LESS THAN 45 MPH. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT FOR MY TRUCK AT WOODHOUSE FORD IN BLAIR, NE ON THE 19TH OF THIS MONTH, MARCH 2020. HOPING BY DOING THIS COMPLAINT THEY WILL NOT CHARGE ME SINCE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

PURCHASED VEHICLE IN 06/2018. CONTACTED SPIKE'S FORD AROUND 11/25/2019. ADVISED SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT VEHICLE WOULD GO INTO A DEATH WOBBLE EVERY TIME IT HIT A BUMP AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THE TRUCK WOULD SHAKE AND BOUNCE UNCONTROLLABLY. IT COULD ONLY BE STOPPED BY BRAKING TO BRING DOWN THE SPEED. THIS COULD CAUSE A INJURY OR DEATH TO MYSELF OR OTHERS ON THE ROAD. THERE ARE DEFECTS IN THE STEERING DAMPER. THEY FINALLY CALLED ME ON 01/27/2020 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART IN STOCK, AND WERE BACKLOGGED WITH SERVICE FOR THE SAME REASON ON OTHER CUSTOMERS.

DRIVING STRAIGHT ON HIGHWAY 95 IN ARIZONA, AT 70 WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET. CLEAR DAY, NO ADVERSE WEATHER OR ROAD CONDITIONS. TIRES EQUALLY PRESSURIZED AT FACTORY SETTINGS OF 59 FRONT AND 55 REAR AND A COMPLETELY STOCK SUSPENSION AND TIRE PACKAGE. OUT OF NOWHERE, STEERING WHEEL BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND THE TRUCK IS SWERVING FROM ONE LANE TO THE OTHER. I HAD TO SLOW TO NEARLY 30 TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THIS WOULD HAVE CAUSED A HEAD ON COLLISION UNDER THE RIGHT CIRCUMSTANCES. 2018 F-250 WITH LESS THAN 30K MILES.

WHILE DRIVING MY TRUCK AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE TRUCK STARTED TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE AND WAS UNABLE TO STEER THE TRUCK. I REACTED BY QUICKLY TAKING THE TRUCK TO A COMPLETE STOP.

I HIT A ROUGH PATCH OF ROAD AT 55 MPH ON A 2 LANE AND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS JERKED OUT OF MY HANDS AND THE TRUCK VIOLENTLY STARTED SHAKING AND BOUNCING VEERING INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC PULLING LEFT TOWARDS A SEMI. I HIT THE BRAKES AND TURNED THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT AS HARD AS I COULD ONLY TURNING RIGHT SLIGHTLY ENOUGH TO MISS THE TRUCK. I PULLED OVER AND INSPECTED THE WHEELS AND EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE. I DROVE AWAY CAUTIOUSLY AND YOU COULDN'T TELL ANYTHING EVER HAPPENED. CALLED DEALER HE SAID OH YEA DEATH WOBBLE. NICE TO KNOW THEY ALREADY KNOW ABOUT IT. AN OLDER OR WEAKER PERSON WOULD BE DEAD ALONG WITH ON COMING DRIVER/PASSENGERS. SCARED TO DRIVE MY $70K TRUCK!!

DEATH WOBBLE AT ABOUT 3000MILES AFTER HITTING A POTHOLE ON A CITY STREET , THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM , WHEN R U GOING TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM ? WHEN PEOPLE GET KILLED ! HOW MANY COMPLAINTS BEFORE U DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT????

Mileage: 3,000

MULTIPLE TIMES WHEN HITTING A SMALL POT HOLE OR DRIVING ON A ROUGH PAVED ROAD VEHICLE WENT INTO WHAT IS CALLED A 'DEATH WOBBLE'. VEHICLE WAS UNCONTROLLABLE. TOOK VEHICLE I. AND FRONT END WORK WAS REPORTEDLY DONE AT DEALERSHIP. GOT THE VEHICLE BACK AND IT WENT INTO A 'DEATH WOBBLE' AGAIN. AT APPROXIMATELY 50 TO 60 MPH DURING EACH OCCURRENCE THE VEHICLE THE VEHICLE SHOOK SO SEVERE THAT IT WAS UNCONTROLLABLE.

Mileage: 55,000

STARTING AT ABOUT 20,000 MILES MY F250 PLATINUM SUPER DUTY STARTED DOING AN EXTREME 'DEATH WOBBLE' WHILE DRIVING 70 MILES AN HOUR ON THE FREEWAY. DEALER SAID IT WAS A STEERING STABILIZER. PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. THEY TRIED TO STATE IT WAS THE LANE ASSIST WHICH HAS BEEN TURNED OFF SINCE WE GOT THE TRUCK. NOW AFTER A COUPLE MONTHS WITH THIS PROBLEM EVEN WHEN WE ARE DOING 30-50 ON NORMAL STREETS AND HIT AND BUMP THE FRONT END BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THIS IS NOW NEEDING TO RETURN TO DEALER AGAIN TO SEE WHAT ELSE THEY SAY IS THE ISSUE

Mileage: 29,000

I HAVE A 2018 F250 4WD UNDER 25K MILES. TWICE LAST WEEK THE TRUCK SHOOK SO HARD AT (70 MPH) IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY. I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO SPLIT IN HALF. THE TRUCK CAME TO AN ABRUPT HALT IN THE FREEWAY LAND AND NEARLY CAUSED TWO MAJOR ACCIDENTS. THE WEBSTER, TX POLICE WHO HELPED ME OFF THE FREEWAY WARNED ME NOT TO BELIEVE THE FORD DEALERSHIP IF FORD BLAMES THIS ON MY TIRES OR STEERING. THE DEALERSHIP BASICALLY SAID THERE WASN'T A PERMANENT FIX BUT NOW ARE CLAIMING OTHERWISE YET CAN'T BACK UP THE REPAIRS WITH CONCRETE EVIDENCE IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN. FORD CLAIMS DUE TO LEMON LAWS IN TX THEY CAN'T BUY IT BACK. TWO DAYS LATER THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN ON THE TOLL RD GOING 70 MPH. FORD HAS NOW SAID THEY WILL REPLACE THE STEERING DAMPER. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS AT LENGTH AND CAN HONESTLY SAY NOT ONE THING I HAVE SEEN GUARANTEES A NEW STEERING DAMPER WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I POSED THE QUESTION TO FORD TODAY: SINCE FORD HAS KNOWLEDGE OF THE DEFECT (ALTHOUGH THEY WON'T REFER TO IT AS A DEFECT) AND I KILL MYSELF OR AN INNOCENT DRIVER WHO IS LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE? FORD REFERRED ME TO THEIR LEGAL DEPARTMENT FOR AN ANSWER. I DID TALK TO THE LAW FIRM WHO FILED THE CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT. I PLAN TO GO TO THE MEDIA WITH MY STORY, I WILL ALSO FILE ON THE WEBSITE LISTED ABOVE. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE FOR FORD TO FLAT IGNORE THIS MAJOR DEFECT! I AM AFRAID FOR MY SAFETY, THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND OTHER DRIVERS. THERE ARE KNOWN DOCUMENTED CASES JUST LIKE MY THAT FORD IS OUTRIGHT IGNORING. TWICE I WAS PUT IN HARMS WAY AND COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OF KILLED. THE VEHICLE WENT FOR 70 TO SHAKING OUT OF CONTROL TO STOPPING IN THE LANE. THE VEHICLE SHOOK SO BAD CARS WERE SWERVING TO MISS ME. THE HAPPENED 10/2/19 AND 10/4/19

VEHICLE WAS ALREADY "FIXED" FOR WHAT IS TERMED "DEATH WOBBLE" LAST YEAR. WHILE DRIVING LAST NIGHT, WE EXPERIENCED THE WHOLE TRUCK SHAKING UNCONTROLLABLY ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. ONCE ON A TOWNSHIP ROAD GOING 45 AND ONCE ON THE INTERSTATE DOING 65. BOTH INVOLVED UNCONTROLLABLE SHAKING OF THE SUSPENSION AND INABILITY TO HAVE COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE TRUCK. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN THIS MORNING WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. THIS HAPPENED, AS BEFORE, WHEN THE TRUCK HITS A BUMP IN THE ROAD. THE INCIDENT ON THE INTERSTATE CAUSED THE NEED TO SLOW DOWN FROM 65 TO 20 MPH IN ORDER TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE VIEHICLE AND STOP THE SHAKING (DEATH WOBBLE).

Mileage: 28,500

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE UNDERNEATH THE HOOD. THERE WERE NO WANING SIGNS, LIGHTS OR ANY OTHER INDICATION THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM. THE CAB WAS MELTED TO THE FRAME IN LESS THAN FIVE MINUTES.

Mileage: 31,000

THIS VEHICLE HAS A SERIOUS DEFECT WHICH FORD NEEDS TO FINALLY ACKNOWLEDGE. WHEN HITTING BUMPS OR BRIDGE TRANSITIONS ON THE HIGHWAY THE FRONT END BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY ALSO KNOWN AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE". THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE SHAKING IS TO SLOW THE TRUCK DOWN TO ABOUT 25 MILES PER HOUR ON A 75 MILE HOUR ROAD. THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE A ACCIDENT OR KILL SOMEBODY. MY TRUCK IS NOW AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE 3RD TIME IN LESS THAN A YEAR WITH UNDER 15,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. AFTER RESEARCH THIS APPEARS TO BE A SERIOUS FLAW WITH THE 2017 & 2018 FORD F250 TRUCKS. I SEE THAT SEVERAL COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN FILED AND IT IS SAD THAT THAT A MANDATE IS NOT BEING ISSUED TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND WAITING UNTIL SOMEONE GETS INJURED OR KILLED SHOULD NOT BE AN OPTION.

Mileage: 14,800

WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 60 AND 75 MPH THE TRUCK BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE STEERING WHEEL ROTATES BACK AND FORTH OUT OF CONTROL. THE MIRRORS RATTLE AND THE ENTIRE TRUCK BOUNCES. THIS WILL OCCUR AFTER HITTING A ROUGH PATCH OF INTERSTATE OR WHEN BRAKING TO EXIT THE INTERSTATE. THE TRUCK MUST BE SLOWED TO APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH BEFORE THE SHAKING SUBSIDES AND NORMAL DRIVING CAN OCCUR. A CONTINUING PROBLEM. WHEN I TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR WARRANTY I AM SIMPLY TOLD "THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM"

Mileage: 9,800

WHEN TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE AND HIT A BUMP THE TRUCK SHAKES VIOLENTLY AND DOES NOT STOP UNTIL YOU COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 5 TIMES. IT SEEMS IT IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY NOW. THE TRUCK HAS 30000 MILES. I HAVE HAD IT FOR 1 YEAR

FRONT WINDSHIELD CRACKED THE WHOLE WAY ACROSS AFTER USING DEFROSTER. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED ON AND THE DEFROSTER WAS TURNED ON AS I WAITED FOR VEHICLE TO WARM UP I WENT BACK INSIDE THE HOUSE. WHEN I WENT BACK OUT AND GOT IN THE VEHICLE THE WINDOW WAS CRACKED ALMOST THE WHOLE WAY ACROSS IN A PERFECT LINE WITH 2 PEAKS THAT CAME UP ABOUT A FOOT IN ON EACH SIDE. THE CRACK THAT WENT THE WHOLE WAY ACROSS WAS ABOUT 8 INCHES ABOVE DASHBOARD. I HAVE ONLY 13000.00 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND BOUGHT IT NEW AROUND 11 MONTHS AGO. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY WILL COVER THIS AS THEY SAID THE COVERAGE ON THE WINDOW HAD TO BE UNDER 12000.00 MILES OR 12 MONTHS WHATEVER CAME FIRST. IT'S REALLY UPSETTING TO THINK THE WINDOW WOULD CRACK FROM DEFROSTER AND THAT THEY MAY NOT COVER IT.

Mileage: 1,330,000

ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, THE TAILGATE CAME DOWN UNEXPECTED WHILE DRIVING. ON THE FIRST OCCASION, WE OCCURRED DAMAGE TO THE TAILGATE AND THE 5TH WHEEL. PICTURES ARE ATTACHED.

ONE HAPPENED IN SEPTEMBER AND THE OTHER IN NOVEMBER AGAIN FOR THE SECOND TIME.
