2016 FORD F-350 Suspension Problems

I was driving as normal and truck started shaking vigorously until I came to a stop. From I can tell, they call this a death wobble. I almost hit another car and have some video of it.

When reaching high speeds, my truck experiences the death wobble.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford F-350. The contact stated while driving approximately 75 MPH, the vehicle drove over a depression in the roadway and the vehicle started vibrating abnormally and then started drifting to the left and to the right in the lane. The contact slowed down to regain control of the vehicle. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure was a recurring failure. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer who was unable to duplicate the failure. The contact stated that the vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the failure had reoccurred, and the vehicle was taken back to the same dealer and the contact was informed that the tires and the brakes needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was not taken to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 148,000.

Mileage: 148,000

The truck has started a violent wabble on the front end making it hard to control and causing me to cone to a total stop. I have been driving the vehicle locally and at slow speeds. I have taken the vehicle to a shop for inspection at a tire and alignment shop and they recommend replacing tires and shocks. I have contacted Ford and they say I need to make an appointment to discuss. It apers, per internet research, that this is a common problem with the Super Duties. One of the times it happened I was in traffic but able to control during the stop using median. This vehicle displays the symptoms that indicate the Ford Death Wabble I have read about on the internet. No warnings.

Death wobble happened 5 times driving on the interstate. Couldn’t control steering and everything was violently shaking.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford F-350. The contact stated while driving at speeds of 51 MPH or exceeding that speed, the vehicle experienced the "Death Wobble". The failure also occurred while driving over rough road surfaces. The contact stated that during the failure, the “Traction Control Loss” warning light was illuminated. The dealer was made aware of the failure. The dealer confirmed that the VIN was not included in a recall. The contact was referred to the manufacturer who confirmed that the VIN was not included in a recall. The manufacturer had referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to file a safety complaint. The failure mileage was 120,000.

Mileage: 120,000

We purchased this truck as a certified used vehicle in January of 2019. In September of 2023 we started experiencing a death wobble every time we try and take the truck over 55 mph. We have taken the truck to the ford dealership six different times to try and fix the issue, and ford can not figure out the cause of the wobble. Currently the truck has been in the shop at ford for almost 2 months continuously with them trying to figure out what is causing the issue.

For years my truck starts vibrating excessively, shaking the entire vehicle when driving over certain sections of roadway or bumps. Sometimes, my steering is difficult to maintain when this happens. This occurs at speeds around 50 mph+. I always assumed it was just a bad road section and never pursued any repair as I didn't think it was a truck issue. Recently, I have come across some articles, that described my exact situation/condition when driving my truck. It makes me have to slow way down below the speed limit for the violent shaking to stop. Sometimes, I though it was just my stiff suspension on bad roads. It is being called the Ford Death Wobble and affects many Ford Super Duty Trucks. Who knows what other components of my truck have been unduly affected due to this manufacturer's safety issue with my truck and that appears to be a situation that occurs often with other Ford Super Duty trucks. I'm concerned one day it will cause me to lose control and crash or crash into another vehicle. To my knowledge Ford has not issued any recall's regarding these safety problems. My truck has been to the Ford shops many times but nothing addressed regarding this condition. It has occurred so many times, I can not even count, well over hundreds of times over 8 years. The most recent time it occurred was about two weeks ago on [XXX] in Colorado Springs. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

When driving this vehicle, it will suddenly go into a violent shake. I have to slow the truck down and pull over to a stop to make it stop shaking - it will not drive through it. It will do it 8 times out of 10 driving it. The steering becomes difficult to handle. All I can do to stop it is pull over. It has done it several times between 1 August and 19 November. I will give you the most recent date below!

The contact owns a 2016 Ford F-350. The contact stated that while her husband was driving approximately 55-60 MPH with her in the front passenger's seat, the vehicle was shuddering significantly, and the steering wheel was shuddering back and forth. The driver lost control of the vehicle and the vehicle nearly drove into a ditch. The driver was able to maintain the vehicle on the shoulder of the road and came to a complete stop. The contact stated that upon turning off and restarting the vehicle, the vehicle operated as needed. The contact stated that the failure had been recurring while driving, and the contact became aware that the failure mostly occurred while exceeding 54 MPH on a bumpy road surface. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the long and short steering drag link, the steering dampener, the track bar ball joint, and bushing needed to be replaced, and the vehicle needed to be realigned. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 87,120.

Have been experiencing what has been termed as the death wobble that is a known problem in the ford f250 and f350 from 2005 to 2019 trucks. Mine is a f350 2016. While driving on highways over 50 can experience a violent shaking in the front end after hitting a bump in road. Feels like the truck can not recover and like loosing control of vehicle. Very scary sensation that at any time could make you loose total control and put myself my passengers and all drivers near me in danger. I use this vehicle to tow things and it could be a disaster. I did some research and learned it was a thing other people were experiencing as well. I contacted dealership and explained my circumstance and it was something the absolutely knew about. I have had a repair done and hopefully it will fix the problem. I understand sometime it helps for a short time and will come back. They should be issuing a recall no doubt about it!!! I fear my truck is not safe and the value is effected. Has happened approx 4 different occasions over a 3 month period.

We have consistently had issues with severe wheel oscillation, which I’ve seen referred to as the death wobble, that causes the entire cab of the truck to shake violently and feels like the front tires are bouncing back and forth laterally on the road, when driving over 55mph and hitting any sort of uneven road or bump, especially after bridges. We have spent thousands on replacing different parts which sometimes alleviate the issue for a short period of time, but it always comes back when you least expect it. We have come incredibly close to being rear ended on the interstate several times because the only way to stop it is to slam on the breaks to decelerate quickly and get the truck below 30 miles per hour. It is more common when not hauling anything but still occurs wether hauling a light load or very heavy one as well. We have PTSD now when driving and can’t function in our business with out using a heavy duty truck. It is absolutely terrifying. This started approximately 6 months after purchasing the truck. We just had it into a Ford repair shop and put $2000 into repairs less than a month ago.

This has occurred four (4) times already, when driving around 70mph, the truck starts to shake violently making it very difficult to control the steering and avoid other vehicles driving alongside the road. There are no warning lights or any other symptoms of the problem.

The vehicle experiences what is known as the "death wobble". It has happened six times, and the frequency is increasing. Each time it has occurred the truck has been towing a travel trailer on the highway/freeway at speeds of approximately 60-65 mph. It usually happens after hitting a bump or imperfection in the roadway. When the incidents occur, the front end of the vehicle shakes uncontrollably. The driver must try to slow the vehicle without touching the breaks, and bracing the steering wheel as tight as possible to keep the vehicle straight on the road. Because the driver/passengers are inside the vehicle they cannot see what is actually happening to the wheels. But individuals in another vehicle said that the front wheels were wobbling uncontrollably. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. When the incident occurs, the truck and trailer could loose control, wreck into something, causing injuries to the passengers and damage to the vehicle and other's property. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer, because no one know for sure what causes it to happen. The vehicle has been inspected/assessed/test driven at by our local Ford dealer who said that all of the component specifications fall within acceptable levels. The dealer said there was no repair needed. There were no warning lights going off inside of the vehicle.

While driving on the freeway (65-70mph) headed home from work my front end began to shake so hard along with my steering wheel. I had no idea what was going on their was no warning of something wrong. It lasted a min or two but very unsettling. My mother-in-law called this a death roll, her roommate has a 2011 F-250 and just experienced this same feeling. Thank you in advance for your time, Danielle

While driving severe shaking (wobbling) of steering wheel. Had to break and pull off road. Had heard of ford death wobble before , first time for me.. Really frighting, luckily no traffic.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford F-350. The contact stated that while her husband was driving at approximately 70 MPH, the vehicle started to shake significantly from side to side. The contact then stated that on a separate occasion, while driving approximately 35 MPH, the front driver’s side tire started to wobble significantly. The contact then stated that her husband was able to pull the vehicle off the road. The contact’s husband turned off and restarted the vehicle. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was advised to call the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 65,000. The contact stated that the vehicle does not have steering stabilizing shocks attached to the steering arms to suppress the wobble.

Mileage: 65,000

Brand new shocks and steering stabilizer installed. This truck since ive owned it is dangerous to drive. When you hit bumps at highway speeds the vehicles shakes and wobbles to the point it feels it looses contact with the road. You either have to dramatically lower speed or risk crashing due to loss of control. This should be recalled due to the enormous amount of complaints for this issue. I will be forced to sell the truck and lose money if something isnt done by manufacturer.

While driving at approximately 62mph, my truck hit a small bump in the road and began shaking so violently that I could barely hold onto the wheel. I immediately braked which caused the truck to shake even more until I finally slowed to about 20th and pulled off the 2 lane highway. Luckily there was very minimal traffic and I was able to keep from losing control. I have only had this truck that I bought from a Ford dealership approximately 5 weeks. This is extremely alarming that a truck like this has no safety recall for something that after some research is named the death wobble across the web. There is no warning, and I do not believe the dealership will do anything to fix this issue without compensation.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford F-350. The contact stated while driving approximately 70 MPH, the front-end was bouncing abnormally, causing the contact to pull over and stop the vehicle. The contact then continued driving however, the failure persisted, and contact pulled over to inspect the vehicle. The vehicle was then restarted and worked as designed. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 105,000. The VIN was not available.

Mileage: 105,000

My vehicle started to shake uncontrollably at 50mph when driving. Research online indicated what people call a "death wobble". I contacted my local Ford dealership multiple times to see if my repair would be covered by Ford. On November 8th, 2022 I turned my truck in and on the 11th I was told what repairs needed to be done. On November 21st, I picked up my truck and parked it at my house. I drove less than 40 miles locally with speeds never exceeding 50mph. On December 6 I began a work trip to Nashville from Killeen Texas. 20 miles into my trip my truck did the "death wobble" with me going 70mph. Two hours later it happened again. I drove all the way to Nashville going 50mph and experienced the death wobble about 8-9 times. Now my engine has a ticking noise that I am certain came from the unsafe, violent, and terrifying shaking of this massive truck.

While traveling at Interstate speed (55-75 MPH), when you hit a certain bump or pothole or road irregularity, the front passenger wheel will begin vibrating which quickly grows in magnitude until the entire engine compartment and cab starts to violently shudder, to the point where all 4 tires begin losing contact with the road surface. The only way to regain control and reduce the harmonics is to apply maximum braking. However, as the truck starts to slow, the shudders will become more violent until finally dampening out appx. 100 yards later at around 40 MPH. Once damped out, the truck will drive smoothly and predictably again at speed until the next bump. As it stands now, I am afraid to drive the truck and my wife refuses to drive it. The big fear is having this happen while in a turn or in heavy traffic where the sudden maximum braking can cause an accident.

Any time I hit a bump going over 50 mph the front end of my truck starts shaking violently. So much that it feels like the front end is about to break apart. The only way to stop is to slam on the brakes and slow down as fast as possible. It’s ways on the highway so it’s a danger to myself and the people behind me. I have to hold the steering wheel as tight I can to keep from losing control. Dealer told me it happens but they don’t know why. This has been happening on a daily basis since I drive on highways to get to work. And only a matter of time before I get into an accident.

I was driving down the interstate at about 65-70mph and my truck started violently shaking out of no where causing me to nearly lose control. After pulling off the road the shaking went away. I brought my truck into my mechanic to have it looked at and they told me this is a known problem with these trucks. After spending a considerable amount of money to have the steering stabilizer and drag link replaced it happened again four days later. My truck is now currently back in the shop. I maintain this truck extremely well and do not abuse it in any way, I should not be having an issue like this. I do not feel safe driving in this truck knowing I can lose control without any warning at highway speeds.

Experience the famous death wobble from 50mph to 70mph hitting a bump or uneven surface you have to stop the vehicle to regain control.

This truck has the death wobble. Started when I purchased the truck at 19000 miles. When at highway speeds, bridge joints and bumps will make the truck nearly uncontrollable. This has happened MANY times in the 80K miles that I've put on the vehicle. It has new tie rod ends, new shocks and has had several sets of tires in the 70k miles that I've owned it. Nothing that I've had mechanics do has fixed the death wobble. The most recent incident is listed below.

My 2016 F350 tried to kill me! I was driving 58 mph on local Hwy 146 (where the speed limit is 60mph) with rainy conditions and put my blinker on to switch lanes and when doing so I ran over the reflective lane divider, located all down the roads for safety purposes that are designed to be drove on, my truck's steering wheel and front suspension began to violently and dangerously shaking uncontrollably! The issue was so aggressive I felt like my vehicle was going to flip! The other vehicles around me immediately recognized there was a problem and moved from around me and allowed me to pull my vehicle off to the side of the road finally slowing down and stopping. Once I got down to around 20 mph I was able to regain control of my truck and bring it to a complete stop. I was completely traumatized and fearful of continuing to drive the vehicle. I took the truck to a respectable mechanic shop right up the road from where the incident occurred and upon reviewing my truck the mechanic said he thinks it is what is referred to as the "Death Wobble," which I feel is appropriate because I truly thought I was going to die! The man said I should be okay to drive but to avoid going over 50 mph and to take it to a Ford dealer because they know of the issue/problem and are fixing it at no charge to customers, even though there has not been an official recall as of yet. While waiting to speak with a Ford representative I pulled videos of people experiencing the "Death Wobble" in their Ford and that was indeed what happened. I have filed a complaint with Ford and my case number is CAS-38233912-K2P7Y9, but I was also informed to notify NHTSA so they are aware of the situation as well so here I am.

Assuming something in suspension. Uncontrollable vibration in front suspension/steering of vehicle. Not as of yet for my vehicle. Did find many reports online referencing what I/we experienced. Scheduled to take into Dealer and local service facility for further inspection. No warnings of any kind. Around 65 -70 MPH there's VIOLENT vibration/shaking on the wheels making steering uncontrollable. Vibration continues till vehicle's speed is reduced to around 40 MPH. Seams to occur when tires experience bumps/imperfections in road. These bumps/imperfections are minor at that. I have now experienced this situation now 6 times. As previously mentioned, during research I found multiple YouTube videos other online references this situation as "Death Wobble". Multiple News affiliation have done reports on this experance/situation.

On 4/24/2022 I purchased a used 2016 Ford 350 super duty 4x4 to tow my 3 horse trailer, with around 86,000 miles on it. As I was driving on the freeway traveling about 65 mph. I went to pass a slow vehicle , went over the reflector bumps. The truck started violently shaking, I could barely control the truck. It felt like the tires were falling off. I had to stop in the emergency fast lane get out of the vehicle and check. I saw that the tires were fine. So I started to drive it again. I was able to get to the slow lane and drive again. I googled the problem and I had experienced the Ford Death Wobble. I was never told of such a dangerous problem or ever reported to Carfax. I would never of bought the vehicle If I would have known. This is a very serious problem. What can I do about it?

My truck started severely shaking after reaching speeds of 50mph when driving over bumps in the road. Our mechanic replaced many front end suspension parts and it is still doing it. I have almost crashed numerous times. I have videos of this happening and almost crashing. This is NOT OK!

I was driving on the freeway and all of the sudden the front end started shaking violently like I hit washboard ruts on a dirt road at 70 mph. I have come to know this as the death wobble. Fortunately it was not very busy at the time this happened and I was able to get to the section between the onramp and the freeway. I am glad I was not pulling my trailer, it would probably caused an accident.

Purchased truck new/no wrecks/no modifications from factory stock/ approx 113k miles/proper tire inflation Sat Feb 5th driving approximately 70 miles per hour in heavy traffic /good weather on interstate near Indianapolis the truck began violently shaking on the front end transferred up through steering wheel. The interstate was 3 lanes wide with heavy traffic in all lanes. Miraculously I was able to get pulled into left median without causing an accident. Vehicle was out of control. Waited several minutes for a break in traffic pulled back out and slowly went to next exit to examine for damage causing this. Cursory Visual inspection showed no broken parts Ford evidently knows of this “death wobble” and has done nothing to notify or repair 2016 Super Duty Models. My unsafe truck is home parked in my garage.

I have started experiencing the known “death wobble”. I have 68585 miles on truck.

After going over a bump in the road at 70 mph, vehicle began to shake violently. Unable to control the vehicle. Had to come to a complete stop. Checked tires, all tires were good and had good air pressure. Took the vehicle to repair shop. Repair shop referred to the 'Death Wobble' . They checked for any loose parts in the front suspension/steering and did not find any. They replaced the steering damper indicating sometimes this will fix the issue. Two months later I hit another bump at 70 mph, vehicle started shaking violently again for several seconds. Had to slow to under 50 mph for the shaking to stop.

While driving at 75 mph my truck started to vibrate violently causing me to lose control of the steering. I backed it down to 40 mph to get it to stop. I continue to drive 200 more miles and it happened again while driving 65 mph. My research shows that this is happened to many Ford F350 and F250 trucks. I just wanted to make sure that I document that this is happened to me.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford F-350. The contact stated while driving 70 MPH, the vehicle experienced the death wobble. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with needing the passenger’s side track bar roller joint, passenger’s side tie rod, steering damper, and link boot to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 56,149.

The vehicle was taken to the dealer and diagnosed with an unknown front-end failure. Several unknown front-end parts needed to be replaced. The dealer informed the contact that the failure was called the "death wobble". The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000.

Mileage: 20,000

When driving down the road, the entire truck starts violently shaking and making it difficult to control the truck. Slowing down to 5-10mph stops the shaking.

I have a 2013 F350 King Ranch. It only has 31.755 miles on it. I’ve had it for 2 years. On November 28, 2021While merging onto the freeway my trucks front end stated shaking, bouncing and vibrating so bad that I had to immediately stop to about 5mph. This just happened out of absolutely nowhere. It didn’t do it again until I returned home. This time it again came out of know where at around 60mph. I had to come to a dead stop on the freeway. The truck was Uncontrollable. I again accelerated to 65mph. It started again and I stopped. This happened another 7 times on the way home. I could control it between 53-60mph. When I got home, both of my front tires were worn down on the outside 3in of tread. There were chucks of rubber the size of dimes that broke off during the violent shake and wobble. I had to get new tires the next day and today my truck to the dealership this morning. It is December 1, 2021. The best way I can explain the feeling is the following. It’s was like driving over speed bumps that where evenly spaces 3ft apart, all in a row. When hit them I immediately hit the brakes and it was like coming to a stop on the same row of speed bumps. The wobble was more violent and could just barely be controlled. I really thought the truck was coming apart. Then at 5-10mph it turned into smooth road. But my tires where getting more tore up during each wobble. Total of 11 wobble on a 10 mile stretch.

Hit a small bump at 50 mph. Truck went into a harsh bounce and was only controlled when I hit the brakes hard. First time it's happened

I'm told by the MEN..."DEATH WOBBLE"!! 2016 Ford 350 Platinum At a certain speed and with a bump in the road, FEELS LIKE THE TIRES ARE GOING TO GO FLYING OFF!! I had to get myself together fast, slow down, and get a better control of the steering! Oh man, the accident it could have caused being next to semis and the every day people driving their vehicles!! This could of caused a BAD accident on the interstate and with the road work going on in Amarillo, Texas! This scared the heck out of my daughter!! This puts EVERYONE at risk!! Oh, and we pull a fifth wheel RV!! The dealer I went to first wasn't very helpful, matter fact...I have NOT been told or not noted on my oil change/vehicle sheet that anything was wrong. This past week, I took it to another Ford Dealership.....well, everything associated with the "Death Wobble" needs to be replaced!! I've maintained and took the advice of Ford Dealerships, when I was told needed a new radiator, I paid for Ford to put one in. It's not fair that the Ford 2016 and prior doesn't get fixed free of charge or recalled and the 2017 and the above does for the Death Wobble. It's already bad enough that Ford's Death Wobble information was withheld from me as well as having a bad radiator when purchasing the truck! It's HORRIBLE that Ford KNOWS about the issue and lets it happen.....puts EVERYONE at risk around the Ford death wobble!!

Front end shimmy few times installed new tires it seemed to help. Shimmy came back rebalanced wheels didnt happen for a while. Rotated tires and added new ones in rear. Drove for awhile seemed ok. 2 weeks ago we were driving about 50 mph had a shimmy but turned into violent shaking and truck was headingbinto oncoming traffic. My wife was screaming and ducking down. When it stopped and I steered it back to our lane. I had front end checked last year and before this incendent everything checked out good except stabilizer was dried out. It was replaced. The mechanic there informed us abpit fords problem with death wobble. Took to dealer for fix after finding letter they said steering damper replacement would fix it. It did not. Ford wanted to replace, track bar,some ball joints and bushings and another allignment. But could not state if it would fix the problem.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford F-350. The contact stated that the front end of the vehicle would rumble and shake while driving at various speeds without warning. The contact stated that while driving at 65 MPH, there was a blowout of the passenger’s side front tire which caused damage to the passenger’s side front quarter panel and step rail. The contact was able to place a spare tire on the vehicle and drove to an independent mechanic where he had all four tires replaced. The contact also took the vehicle to a body shop where he had the damage to the vehicle repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and he was informed that his vehicle was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V246000 (Tires). The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 49,000.

Mileage: 49,000

ON TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 28, 2021 I WAS DRIVING MY F350 2016 ON THE FREEWAY AT FREEWAY SPEED 75MPH I WENT OVER SOME ROUGH ROAD AND MY TRUCK STARTED TO VIIOLENTLY SHAKE WITH OUT ANY WARNING. LUCKILY I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE SO I PROCEEDED TO STEER IT INTO THE EMERGENCY LANE FEARING FOR MY LIFE NOT WANTING TO HIT THE CONCRETE BARRIER. I TURNED MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON AND GOT OUT OF MY TRUCK EXPECTING TO FIND TIRES MISSPLACED. I GOT BACK ON THE FREEWAY INTO THE SLOW LANE AND WENT HOME SLOWLY. I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP AND MADE AN APPT FOR THE NEXT DAY. AFTER LOOKING AT MY TRUCK THEY CALLED ME WITH A $2200 ESTIMATE! MY TRUCK IS A 2016 F350 AND ONLY HAS 43,000 MILES ON IT. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING, THIS KIND OF FEAR SHOULDN'T BE EXPERIENCED WHEN I LOVE TO DRIVE MY TRUCK. I AM SURE THIS WILL HAVE AN EFFECT ON ME WHEN I GET IT BACK, PTSD. NOT A HAPPY FORD DRIVER

Death wobble happens when I hit a bump at high speeds nearly had two different wrecks losing control of the steering ability.

I'VE EXPERIENCED 4 EXTREME CASES OF VIOLENT WOBBLING OF THE FRONT END, UTTERLY VIOLENT AND UNCONTROLLABLE. TAP THE BRAKES IT BECOMES WORST. CANT HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL, UTTERLY RANDOM HAPPENED 4 TIMES IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THE TRUCK NOW AND IT'S MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORT. I AM TERRIFIED IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN AND I WILL CRASH OR KILL MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE IN A WRECK WHEN THE TRUCK IS SHAKING OUT OF CONTROL. IT IS TRULY TERRIFYING. IN MOTION TYPICALLY ON A FREEWAY SPEED AROUND 50 TO 60 MPH.

Mileage: 97,700

I HAVE EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS TIMES THE "DEATH WOBBLE" WHEN I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD. THE TRUCK SHAKES VIOLENTLY AND TOTALLY LOSES STEERING UNTIL I CAN SLOW DOWN TO ABOUT 10 MPH AND THE SHAKING STOPS. IT IS VERY SCARY AND HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. IT HAS TO BE OVER 55 MPH WHEN IT HAPPENS. THE SLIGHTEST BUMP ON THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL WILL CAUSE IT. ONE TIME I WAS GOING ABOUT 75 MPH AND THOUGHT I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO GET IT BACK IN MY LANE. IT REALLY SCARES ME AND MY PASSENGERS WHEN IT HAPPENS .I AM AFRAID TO LET MY WIFE OR KIDS DRIVE IT. FORD WON'T DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN TELL ME TO TAKE IT IN AND GET IT REPAIRED .I JUST CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW THEY REFUSE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL THE PROBLEMS THEY HAVE HAD WITH THESE ISSUES AND WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL.

Mileage: 155,000

SEVERE SHAKING AND VIBRATION AFTER HITTING A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES NOW AND USUALLY AT SPEEDS GREATER THAN 50 MPH. THE VIOLENT SHAKING ONLY SUBSIDES WHEN SPEED IS GREATLY REDUCED IE BELOW 30MPH. IT ONLY HAPPENS AFTER A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD.

Mileage: 95,000

DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS I EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE AS THE TRUCK HIT A FREEWAY OVERPASS BUMP AND THEN BEGAN A VIOLENT SHAKE. IT WAS ALL I COULD DO TO HOLD THE SHAKING STEERING WHEEL AND BAKE TO A NEAR STOP. ACCELERATING TO FREEWAY SPEEDS IT SHOOK AS IF IT WANTED TO WOBBLE AGAIN BUT I REDUCED SPEEDS DOWN TO 55. I HAVE GOOD MICHELIN TIRES AND NO LOAD. THIS SAME THING HAPPENED IN THE 2014 GAS MODEL I HAD AND NOW I AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS ONE. JANUARY 2021

Mileage: 57,000

WITHIN 8,000 MILES THE VEHICLE COULD NOT GO OVER 45 MPH AND HIT A BUMP WITHOUT THE FRONT TIRES AND ENTIRE TRUCK SHAKING SO VIOLENTLY THAT THE CARS AROUND ME WOULD SCATTER AND I'D HAVE TO PULL OVER TO STOP THE VIOLENT SHAKING. I'VE HAD A 2005 F350 BEFORE AND WAS ALREADY AWARE OF THE KNOWN PROBLEM, "DEATH WOBBLE". DEALERSHIP ADJUSTED MY CAMBER SO THE OUTSIDE TIRES WORE OUT IN A FEW MONTHS. AFTER 16,000 MILES THE PROBLEM RETURNED AND THEY BLAMED THE BALDING TIRES WHICH THEY CREATED WITH THEIR CAMBER ADJUSTMENT AND TOOK NO RESPONSIBILITY. AFTER I GOT HOME I ALSO REALIZED THAT THE SERVICE MANAGER INTENTIONALLY DID NOT PUT MY COMPLAINT ON THE WORK ORDER. HE KNEW I WAS AWARE THAT THIS WAS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH FORD TRUCKS AND I KNEW THE HISTORY AND OBVIOUSLY TRIED TO PROTECT HIMSELF AND THE DEALERSHIP. THEY FED ME THE SAME LINE THAT READ FROM HUNDREDS OF OTHER PEOPLE ONLINE WHO COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM AND TOLD ME THE TRUCK HAD TO BE ALIGNED EVERY 6 MONTHS. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR 20 YEARS AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.

Mileage: 7,000

TERRIBLE SHAKING WHEN CRUISING AT CERTAIN SPEEDS. I MAINLY NOTICE THE SHAKING AROUND 45 MPH, AND AGAIN AROUND 60 MPH. I AM ABLE TO CONTROL THE SHAKING BY EITHER ACCELERATING TO AROUND 70 MPH, OR BRAKING TO BELOW 40 MPH. THE SHAKING IS SO BAD SOMETIMES THAT I FEEL LIKE I WILL LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE IF I DON'T SPEED UP OR SLOW DOWN TO MAKE THE SHAKING STOP. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT TYPE OF STREET I AM ON AS LONG AS I AM GOING FAST OR SLOW ENOUGH TO CAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL AND VEHICLE TO SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY.

CURRENTLY FILED A CLAIM ABOUT "DEATH WOBBLE" ND I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN AND GOT IT "FIXED" AT A DEALERSHIP UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE 47K MILES ON MY TRUCK AND EVEN AFTER GETTING IT FIXED, I HIT A REPAIRED POTHOLE ON THE HIGHWAY AND GOT DEATH WOBBLE AGAIN AT 70 MPH. AT THAT SPEED, THERE WAS ABOUT 30-45 SECONDS WHERE YOU HAVE LITERALLY NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. MY ONLY SAVING GRACE WAS THE PERSON BEHIND ME ON THIS HIGHWAY WHO PUT THEIR HAZARDS ON AND HELD TRAFFIC BACK AS IT WAS PEAK TRAVEL TIME.

Mileage: 38,000

ACCELERATED INTO THE HIGHWAY. I WAS AT 70 MPH WHEN I WENT TO CHANGE LANES WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED SHAKING UNCONTROLLABLY, I COULDN'T BRAKE AND COULD HARDLY MANAGE TO KEEP MY HANDS ON THE WHEEL TO TRY AND STEER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ISSUE WAS DIAGNOSED AS 'DEATH WOBBLE' WHICH WAS EXPLAINED AS A SUSPENSION ISSUE. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND HAS BEEN FOR A LONG TIME.

THE DEATH WOBBLE ON A 2016 FORD F 350. I HIT AN EXPANSION JOINT AND I THOUGHT I HAD A BLOWN TIRE . GOT OUT OF THE TRUCK AND CHECKED TO SEE IF I HAD A BLOWN TIRE? NOPE PROCEEDED DOWN THE ROAD NO PROBLEMS! THE THE NEXT DAY HIT A POT HOLE AND SAME THING HAPPENED. HAD A SHOP REPLACE TRACK BAR BUSHING AND THOUGHT IT WAS FIXED, MIND YOU NOT TWO DAYS LATER IT OCCURRED AGAIN , NOW I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK USED WITH 23000ISH MILES AND THE FORD DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM DID NOT TELL TELL ME ANYTHING ABOUT A LIFT KIT THAT WAS INSTALLED REPLACING THE SHOCKE STEERING DAMPENER AND ADDED A DUAL STEERING STABILIZER, AFTER 800$ LATER NOTHING HAS CHANGED.

Mileage: 24,500

I HAVE THE DEATH WOBBLE !!! I CAN JUST BE DRIVING DOWN ANY ROAD AND COME ACROSS THE SLIGHTEST CHANGE IN SURFACE AND THE FRONT END JUST STARTS SHAKING TO WHERE I HAVE TO COME TO A STOP TO GET IT TO STOP. I HAD IT REPAIRED AT A LOCAL SHOP AND IT DID IT ON THE WAY HOME.

Mileage: 52,000

SINCE NEW A DEATH WOBBLE HAS OCCURRED WHILE TRAVELING AT SPEEDS OVER 30 MPH. THIS IS A RANDOM ISSUE THAT HAPPENS WHEN HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD. SOMETIMES IT GOES AWAY QUICKLY OTHER TIMES I NEED TO PULL OVER AND STOP COMPLETELY.

Mileage: 44,000

FORD DEATH WOBBLE, DEFECT IN FRONT STEERING DAMPING SHOCK CAUSES TRUCK TO SEVERELY START SHAKING WHEN 1 WHEEL HITS RIPPLE IN ROAD. YOU CANT STOP THE VIOLENT SHAKING OF TRUCK WITHOUT ALMOST STOPPING TRUCK. IT SHAKES ENTIRE TRUCK. HAPPENS ON HIGHWAYS WITH RIPPLES IN PAVEMENT OR UNEVEN PAVEMENT AT SPEEDS AROUND 60 MPH OR HIGHER. FORD WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. DEALERSHIP PUTS AFTER MARKET DUAL STEERING STABILIZER KIT ON FRONT END AT PRICE OF $600.00

Mileage: 130,000

DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS HITTING BUMPS OR UNEVEN PAVEMENT, UNCONTROLLABLE, VIOLENT STEERING WHEEL SHAKING OCCURRED . FORD DEALERSHIP SAID A SHOCK WAS LOOSE AND TIGHTENED. A FEW WEEKS LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN. FORD DEALER DOES ALL MY SERVICE WORK. THEY DID NOT RECOMMEND ANY FRONT END WORK, SAID IT LOOKED GOOD.

Mileage: 112,038

I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE STRAIGHT AT ABOUT 60 MPH ON A HIGHWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE START TO SHAKE ROUGHLY IN AN OSCILLATING STYLE, APPARENTLY KNOWN AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE". MAINTAINING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND REQUIRED A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF FORCE TO KEEP THE VEHICLE STRAIGHT AND NOT CRASHING INTO OTHER CARS OR HIGHWAY WALLS. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THIS WAS TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES AND BRING THE VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP ON A HIGHWAY.

Mileage: 68,800

THE FRONT SUSPENSION EXHIBITS WHAT IS COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS "DEATH WOBBLE". THE VEHICLE HAS HAD THE FRONT SHOCKS REPLACED, AND IT STILL OCCURRED. THE DEALER INDICATED TO REPLACE THE TIRES DUE TO CUPPED TREAD CAUSED BY THE WORN-OUT SHOCKS. THIS WAS DONE. THE VEHICLE HASN'T HAD THE DEATH WOBBLE IN THE 100 MILES SINCE. HOWEVER, THE SERVICE WRITER AT THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT "YOU CAN TELL IT STILL WANTS TO, BUT IT HASN'T YET". I GET THE SAME SENSATION WHEN I DRIVE THE VEHICLE. OUR HIGHWAY SPEEDS HERE ARE 65 MPH, AND OUR INTERSTATE SPEEDS ARE 80 MPH. PRIOR TO THE TIRES BEING REPLACED, A DRIVER EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE IN A SITUATION THAT'S WORTH REPORTING. THE DRIVER WAS TRAVELING ON A STRAIGHT STRETCH OF 65 MPH TWO-LANE HIGHWAY WHEN DEATH WOBBLE OCCURRED. THE STEERING WHEEL WAS NOT ABLE TO BE HELD ONTO, AND THE VEHICLE CROSSED THE CENTER LINE INTO THE ONCOMING LANE OF TRAFFIC. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A FATAL HEAD ON COLLISION. I BELIEVE FORD IS AWARE OF THE REGULAR OCCURRENCE OF DEATH WOBBLE IN THESE TRUCKS, BUT THEY ARE EITHER INCAPABLE OF FIXING THEM, OR THEY DON'T WANT TO FOR FINANCIAL REASONS. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FROM A SAFETY STANDPOINT IN MY OPINION. I CANNOT AGREE THAT CUPPED TIRES OR WORN OUT SHOCKS ARE AN ACCEPTABLE TRIGGER FOR DEATH WOBBLE THAT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO LEAD TO A HEAD-ON COLLISION. IT'S MY BELIEF THAT MORE TOLERANCE SHOULD BE ENGINEERED INTO VEHICLES SO THAT PEOPLE WHO CAN'T OR SIMPLY DON'T MAINTAIN THEIR VEHICLES WILL NOT BE CAUSING AVOIDABLE FATALITIES. THIS IS THE FIRST VEHICLE THAT I'M AWARE OF THAT WORN-OUT SHOCKS OR CUPPED TIRE TREAD IS CAPABLE OF CAUSING SUCH ISSUES, AND IT INFURIATES ME THAT FORD DISMISSES IT. THIS DEATH WOBBLE HAS OCCURRED REPEATEDLY IN THE THREE YEARS WE'VE BEEN UTILIZING THE VEHICLE. MANY DRIVERS HAVE EXPERIENCED IT.

WHILE TRAVELING FREEWAY SPEED, HITTING A BUMP ON THE ROAD CAUSES AN UNCONTROLLABLE SHAKE IN THE FRONT END AND CAUSES THE TRUCK TO GO TOWARDS THE LEFT, THAT ONLY GOES AWAY AFTER HITTING THE BRAKES AND SLOWING DOWN 10-15 MPH. A REPRESENTATIVE FROM FORD CALLS IT THE "DEATH WOBBLE." I HAD THE TRUCK INTO FORD BEFORE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED AND THEY REPLACED A STEERING STABILIZER SHOCK, BUT THE PROBLEM NEVER WENT AWAY TOTALLY. FORD CONFIRMED THE PROBLEM, AND DIAGNOSED IT AS TRACK BAR BALL JOINT WORN, EXCESSIVE PLAY, SHIMMY SHOCK WORN. THE DEALER IS AWARE OF THE DEFECT IN THEIR TRUCKS, BUT REFUSED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT AND SAID IT'S JUST BECAUSE THE PARTS WERE WORN OUT. THEY DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT ANY PARTS BEING WORN WHEN THEY REPLACED THE STEERING SHOCK, LESS THAN 10000 MILES BEFORE. VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITH THE "DEATH WOBBLE." KEN GARFF FORD WAS WILLING TO PAY FOR THE OEM PARTS TO BE REPLACED, AND NOW THE DEATH WOBBLE IS GONE. HOWEVER, FORD HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FOR 15 YEARS AND REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECT.

Mileage: 44,600

FORD CALLS IT A DEATH WOBBLE THEY SAY IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM. SAD WHEN DEALERSHIP TELLS YOU THAT. STEERING STABILIZER SEVERAL OTHER PARTS WILL NEED TO BE BOUGHT TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM. WOBBLE OUT OF CONTROL ON THE HIGHWAY CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW THEY CAN HAVE SUCH UNSAFE PARTS THAT COULD KILL SEVERAL PEOPLE. SAD!

I AM EXPERIENCING A PROFOUND "DEATH WOBBLE" IN THE FRONT END. WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND GOING OVER UNEVEN PAVEMENT, AN UNCONTROLLABLE DEATH WOBBLE OCCURS AND THE WHOLE FRONT END SHAKES VIOLENTLY (CAUSING THE TIRES TO SKIP ON THE PAVEMENT SURFACE-LOOSING TRACTION) AND THIS "RHYTHM" CANNOT BE CONTROLLED UNTIL THE SPEED IS BROUGHT BELOW 25 MILES AN HOUR. THIS IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS IN A CURVE IN THE ROAD. IT WOULD BE EASY TO LOOSE CONTROL AND CRASH INTO SOMETHING/SOMEONE! EVERYTHING ON MY TRUCK IS FACTORY STOCK. THE TIRES ARE GOOD AND I HAVE MADE NO MODIFICATIONS TO THE SUSPENSION. THE DEALER ACKNOWLEDGES THE PROBLEM AND WANTS ME TO REPLACE GOOD PARTS AT MY EXPENSE WHICH DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS SEEMS LIKE A DEFINITE DESIGN FLAW. THERE ARE MANY AFTERMARKET PARTS AVAILABLE THAT CLAIM TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I DO NOT WANT TO PUT THEM ON BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO GIVE FORD A REASON TO BLAME THE PROBLEM ON THE AFTERMARKET PARTS. THIS SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING TO MANY OTHER PEOPLE AND LOOKS LIKE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE!

MY FORD F-350 HAS EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE AT SPEEDS FROM 50-75 MPH, IT'S RANDOM AND DOESN'T SHOW ANY WARNING SIGNS, IT IS EXTREMELY SCARY AND UNNERVING TO EXPERIENCE. HITTING THE BRAKES MAKES IT VIOLENTLY UNCONTROLLABLE. MY TRUCK HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE FOR THIS REPAIR. IT HAS BEEN RETURNED TO ME IN WORSE SHAPE THEN BEFORE I TOOK IT IN. I HAVE DONE TONS OF RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH ALL F-250,F-350,F-450,AND F-550 TRUCKS AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUED! THIS DEATH WOBBLE IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED IT, IF IT HASN'T ALREADY. I OWN 3 FORD SUPER DUTY TRUCKS SO FAR 2 OF THEM HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS UNCONTROLLABLE SITUATION AND MY 2019 F-550 IS SHOWING THE SAME SIGNS AS MY OTHER 2 TRUCKS BEFORE THEY ACTUALLY DEATH WOBBLED. FORD KNOWS OF THIS ISSUE AND SO DOES THE NHTSA. PLEASE DO RESEARCH AND AN INVESTIGATION SO THIS CAN BE TAKEN CARE OF FOR ALL SUPER DUTY OWNERS! OR STAY AWAY FROM THESE TRUCKS IF YOU ARE A CONSUMER. THEY HAVE REPLACED MY TRACK BAR, STEERING STABILIZER SHOCK AND SOME SORT OF SLUGS WHICH I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF. SO WE WILL SEE WHEN I GET IT BACK THIS TIME IF IT'S ANY BETTER.

HIT A BUMP AT 55 MPH ON HIGHWAY AND THE FRONT END BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY WOBBLE/SHIMMY. VEHICLE IS UNCONTROLLABLE UNTIL SLOWING TO MINIMAL SPEED. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AT 38K MILES AND TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG, KEEP TIRE PRESSURE MONITORED CONSTANTLY. MONITORED PRESSURE AND VEHICLE BEGAN REPEATING THIS PHENOMENON AT 58K. PAID $3169.63 FOR REPAIRS HOWEVER, VIOLENT EPISODES CONTINUED. 100K MILES THE TRUCK REPEATS THE VIOLENT BEHAVIOR 3-4 TIMES DAILY. DEALERSHIP HAS INDICATED THAT FORD IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT DOES NOT HAVE A FIX.

Mileage: 38,513

THERE IS AN UNCONTROLLABLE SHAKING AT 60 MILES AN HOUR OR HIGHER, AFTER INVESTIGATION IT SEEMS THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF CASES, THE SHAKING HAS BEEN CALLED " THE DEATH WOBBLE" DEALERSHIPS DON'T SEEM TO KNOW WHATS GOING ON AND FORD NOT GIVING ANY GOOD SOLUTIONS. THIS CANT BE SEEN WITH PICTURES THERE IS HUNDREDS OF VIDEOS IN YOUTUBE ABOUT THIS ISSUE.

WHILE IN MOTION AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, TRAVELING IN A STRAIGHT LINE, THE VEHICLE SHAKES VIOLENTLY TO THE POINT OF ALMOST LOSING CONTROL. THE SHAKING BEGINS WHEN THE VEHICLE DRIVES OVER A SEAM, BUMP, OR HOLE IN THE ROAD WHEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT CAUSES THE STEERING WHEEL TO WHIP BACK AND FORTH AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED ALMOST LIKE A MOTORCYCLE WHEN THE HANDLE BARS WHIP BACK AND FORTH (TANK SLAPPER). IT IS NOT ALWAYS IN THE SAME PLACE ON THE HIGHWAY AND DOES NOT ALWAYS OCCUR AT THE SAME TIME OR PLACE AND SPEED. IT CAN CATCH A DRIVER OFF GUARD AND HAS TO BE FOUGHT TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE VIOLENT NATURE OF THE STEERING WHEEL. THE PHENOMENON IS KNOWN BY THE MANUFACTURER AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AND THEY HAVE A TSB FOR THE PROBLEM, BUT ARE FAILING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ISSUE AND ARE PASSING THE COST TO REPAIR ON TO THE CONSUMERS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND CAN CAUSE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE IF THE SHAKE IS SEVERE ENOUGH. I TOOK MY TRUCK IN AND THEY REPLACED THE STEERING STABILIZER. THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. IT OCCURRED AGAIN ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEED, AGAIN IN A STRAIGHT LINE. BRAKING DOES NOT STOP THE VIOLENT SHAKING. THE SHAKE ONLY STOPS AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS SLOWED CONSIDERABLY. THIS IS A WIDELY DOCUMENTED ISSUE ON THE INTERNET AND SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE VIDEO EVIDENCE OF THE ISSUE. IT IS NOT RELATED TO ONLY THIS YEAR VEHICLE. FORD HAS A SEVERE SUSPENSION ISSUE WHICH MUST BE CORRECTED BY THE MANUFACTURER. RECALL AND REPAIR.

Mileage: 46,700

I EXPERIENCED DEATH WOBBLE WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70MPH AFTER HITTING A ROUGH PATCH OF STRAIGHT ROAD ON THE HIGHWAY. EXTREMELY VIOLENTLY SHAKING! I ENDED UP IN THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I COULD NOT CONTROL THE TRUCK UNTIL I GOT TO A NEAR COMPLETE STOP. THERE WAS A TOTAL LOSS OF CONTROL. MIRACULOUSLY AVOIDED A WRECK ON THE HIGHWAY.

2016 FORD F350 POWERSTROKE (29,947 MILES), WHILE TRAVELING DOWN SMOOTH INTERSTATE PULLING 5TH WHEEL CAMPER WHEN SPEEDOMETER GETS TO 61MPH THE STEERING WHEEL BEGINS TO VIBRATE. WHEN SPEED IS 62-63MPH THE ENTIRE TRUCK BEGINS TO VIOLENTLY BOUNCE CAUSING NEAR LOSS OF CONTROL. THE "WOBBLE" WAS SO SEVERE WHILE REDUCING SPEEDS THE TRUCK WAS BOUNCING ALL OVER THE HIGHWAY LANES, FORTUNATELY TRACTOR TRAILER DRIVERS WERE ALERT AND IMMEDIATELY SLOWED DOWN WHICH ALLOWED US TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE COMBINATION. APPEARS SPEEDS LESS THAN 61MPH THE STEERING IS BETTER WITH LESS VIBRATION. AFTER DROPPING OFF THE 5TH WHEEL AGAIN WE APPROACHED 60 MPH WITH SOME VIBRATION NOTED. WHEN 62MPH WAS REACHED AGAIN THE STEERING VIOLENTLY BEGAN WOBBLING AS IT BOUNCED THE TRUCK EXTREMELY HARD ON THE PAVEMENT. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THE HIGHWAYS USED WERE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH NO VISIBLE OR NOTICEABLE DEFECTS.

OCTOBER 8, 2018 AT 3:45 PM HEADING NORTH BOUND ON US HIGHWAY 55 AT MILE MARKER 191.8 TOWING A FIFTH WHEEL RV, HIT ROUGH PAVEMENT WHICH CAUSED UNCONTROLLABLE OSCILLATION OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND VIOLENT SHAKING OF THE ENTIRE VEHICLE. YOU MUST SLOW THE VEHICLE TO UNDER UNDER 10 MILES AN HOUR TO REGAIN CONTROL. THIS SAME TYPE OF SITUATION HAPPEN ON AUGUST 4, 2018, WHICH I RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE FORD DEALER WHO STATED THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG, BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE.

UNCONTROLLABLE STEERING AFTER DRIVING OVER EXPANSION JOINTS ON THE HIGHWAYS OR ROUGH ROADS OR STREETS. ONCE YOU DRIVE OVER THESE AREAS, THE STEERING WHEEL BEGINS TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE TO THE LEFT THEN THE RIGHT. THE TRUCK IS SHAKING VIOLENTLY AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. YOU MUST SLOW DOWN TO ALMOST A STOP TO STOP THE VIOLENT SHAKING AND REGAIN CONTROL OF YOUR TRUCK. THIS HAS HAPPEN TWO TIMES IN A ROW AND I WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FORD DEALER WHO REPLACED PARTS. ON THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPEN, I HAD TO CUT BETWEEN THE HIGHWAY WORKERS BACK BLOCKING TRUCK AND THE HIGHWAY WORKERS REPAIRING THE ROAD BECAUSE I COULD NOT CONTROL THE VEHICLE AT THE HIGHWAY SPEED. IT HAS HAPPEN AGAIN AND THE TRUCK IS BACK IN AT THE FORD DEALER.

Mileage: 21,000

VEHICLE BOUNCES VERY DANGEROUSLY CAUSING VEHICLE TO SWERVE INTO OTHER LANE. POT HOLES SHAKE VEHICLE INTO OTHER LANES. BRAKES DO NOT HOLD WELL DURING SHAKING. MYSELF INSIDE SHAKE VERY HEAVILY AS WELL FEELING LIKE A BOBBLE HEAD. STEERING BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT WHILE SHAKING. IT IS SO BAD SPEAKING IS DIFFICULT DURING THE SHAKE. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED ABOVE 55MPH. THIS OCCURS MOST ON HIGHWAYS BUT ALSO ON CITY STREETS.

Mileage: 1,200

WHILE DRIVING AT 60 TO 70 MILES PER HOUR YOU GET A SLIGHT SHIMMY IN THE BACK END. AS YOU PROGRESS THE SHAKE GETS WORSE. THE FORD SHOP WHERE I LIVE HAS A RUSH IN RUSH OUT WORK ETHIC, THEY DON'T LISTEN TO THE ONE PAYING THE BILLS. I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL SHOPS TO FIND THE PROBLEM, NO RESULTS. *TR
