| Description of the problem | Death wobble! For the past two years, i have been fighting this phenomenon by changing out shocks, sway bars, steering box etc., this past saturday, june 6th, while accelerating to get on the highway, the front end went into a violent shake (death wobble) where i thought i was going to loose control of the vehicle. I slammed on the brakes and moved off the entrance to the highway finally getting the front end under control. Ford has been unresponsive with the service manager at my local dealership saying even he can't get ford to help resolve this phenomenon. |
