| Description of the problem | I purchase a new 2017 ford f250 super duty from the dealership and i have experienced what its called the "death wobble " several times, the dealership shop haven't been able to fix this dangerous problem and i am already very frustrated. The death wobble is wen i'm going in the highway around 60 miles per hour and hit a small bump like a overpass or bridge and the front steering start shimmying, shaking, dangerously so i have to slow down before an accident happens. Something has to be done to fix this problem before me, my family or other drivers die because of this uncontrollable situation. |
