 Description of the problemWith approximately 35,000 miles on the truck, i experienced a extremely violent oscillation in the steering. Everything in the truck was shaking and it was difficult to hold onto the steering wheel and maintain control of the vehicle until i could decrease speed to about 50mph or less. The oscillation did not happen again for approximately 6 months. Then it happened again 2 times back to back. After that i did not have the issue for more than a year. Then about 3 months ago (with roughly 49,000 miles), it started back again and has happened countless times since. When i reach 60mph the oscillation starts out light but progressively gets worse until it is in a full on "death wobble". All items in the truck are shaking around and falling in the floor. My wife will not drive the truck due to this issue and i wouldn't feel comfortable with her driving it. I am writing this report mainly for the thousands of other ford super duty owners that have experience this issue and for some, have been in accidents because of it. There are literally facebook groups created solely for the discussion of the "ford death wobble" and any potential solutions. From reports i have read, the dealerships, in many cases have not been successful in correcting the issue. Some reports state the repairs and say that it was a "band-aid" and that the issue returned shortly after the repairs. Others say that the dealers have told them that there is nothing else they can do. There also have been some reports that says it was corrected, at least for the time being. I have seen reports on vehicles as new as 2019 models with around 5,000 miles on them. This is definitely a safety related issue and i hope ford is pushed to make this right for their customers. I have videos but they are the wrong file type. Date below is most recent occurrence. Thanks!

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?
