| Description of the problem | Truck is almost 2 years old. 25,000 miles on the vehicle. Experienced death wobble when braking ever so slightly above 45 miles an hour. Experienced death wobble on the highway doing approximately 65 miles an hour, had to slow down and change lanes while holding the steering wheel with both hands and slow down to approximately 25 miles an hour in order to get the wobble to stop. First time experiencing the death wobble, took the vehicle into my local dealership paul clark ford in your florida and was told that the rotor had a hotspot on it. Was told the only solution would be to resurface the rotors. After reading numerous complaints about the same exact issue with the same exact year and model vehicle, i believe that this is more of the recall issue then a sporadic issue. This is going to cause an accident and may cause someone in their life |
