Description of the problem	When traveling on the highway at about 65 mph, the vehicle became almost impossible to control, exhibiting violent shaking. I now know that this is known as "death wobble". I needed to slow to about 30 mph while furiously gripping the steering wheel to get the shaking to stop. This has happened 3 more times in the past two months. This is terrifying. After replacing the track bar, bushings, steering stabilizer 3 times, tie rod ends and aligning' it still is happening. I had ford dealer inspect and they acted as if they had no knowledge of this problem. They simply wanted to replace the steering stabilizer for a 4th time. After doing research, i now know that this has been an ongoing problem with ford trucks since at least 2011 and there is no way that they did not know about this. There is a tsb #18-2268 on this problem but many people have reported that this does not fix the problem. My research shows that a dual steering stabilizer is the only thing that will fix this problem. This is a part that ford does not make and must be purchased as after-market from someone like pmf, fox, kelderman or procomp.
