| Description of the problem | While driving 55-65 mph the steering starts shaking violently, you are unable to hold the steering wheel straight. In order to stop this you have to slow down to 15-20 mph as quickly as possible before losing control hoping no one runs into you for having to stop quickly. This is very dangerous not knowing when it is going happen. This is such a problem with ford trucks that steering stabilizer kits are listed on line under death wobble. Do you mean that people have to die before ford is made to do something about this? This has happened multiple times. The ford dealership said i needed new tires. This did not help. |
