| Description of the problem | 2017 f250 44,000 miles experiencing extreme front tire wobble on the expressway (death wobble) normally happens when im crossing over a bridge or hit minor imperfections on the highway. Usually happens at around 65 mph and when the wobble starts it will not stop until around 30 mph i lose control of the vehicle when this happens until i can get the wobble to stop. This has been going on for the last few months. I have everything stock on my truck . I have brought it into a shop to check front end and everything seems to be tight. I have had the tires rotated properly. This needs to be recalled by ford. I have been going through ford truck owner blogs and this is a serious ongoing problem with these trucks. I am not the only one. I am a long time ford truck owner and i have never had any issues with any of my trucks. |
