Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	At around 7k miles developed a death wobble shimmy in the steering when hitting potholes or cracks in the roadway at 40 mph and up. Took into dealer and upper tie rod was replaced. Problem appeared to be somewhat less noticeable. Now at 10k miles the dw is prevalent in everyday driving and makes the vehicle very scary to drive. Almost total control is lost for several seconds until you brake hoping not to get rear ended while regaining control of the vehicle. Its bad enough to spend $60k on a truck that developed this type of issue at 7k miles but at 10k miles it's not even about money, this could kill someone. Ford has listed a tsb on this issue that i am currently looking into but i've seen no confirmation that this fixed the issue, appears to be more of a bandage. Ford needs to fix this issue asap.
