 Description of the problemTruck is almost 2 years old. 25,000 miles on the vehicle. On 5/13, i experienced a 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. Took the vehicle into my local dealership paul clark ford in yulee florida and was told that the rotor had a hotspot on it. Was told the only solution would be to resurface the rotors. I had to come back for a loaner vehicle on 5/14. Yesterday 5/14, i was driving approx 55 mph on a paved highway when i went over an overpass. After doing so, the wobbel started again. Luckily i was alone on the road because the truck was shaking violently, i was alone on the road as the shaking caused the truck to change lanes. Gain, i held the steering whel with both hands trying to somewhat control the vehicle i slowed down. When the vehicle speed was aprox 30 mph, the shaking stopped. I proceeded slowly to my dealer to trun the truck in for the nspection and fix. The service advisors and master technician stated that i was definately the death wobble and they would attempt to fix it but it was going to be difficult because ford has not acknowledged the problem even though there is a technical buletin (tsb-18-2268) regarding the issue. 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.
