2017 Ford F-250 Suspension Problems, Complaints and Defects

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Vehicle shakes very violently at high speeds (60 mph+) when a slight bump in the road is hit. Entire vehicle shudders and shakes super hard and the steering wheel twists as the driver fights to retain control while driving at highway speeds. The only remedy is to slam on the brakes and reduce speed very quickly, all the while hoping and praying the truck doesn't roll and you don't hit or get hit by the other vehicles around you, at highway speeds. It is terrifying. Ford truck owners apparently call this the "ford death wobble" and i couldn't think of a more apt description. Videos circulating online of this phenomenon mirror our experience exactly. Ford attempted to fix the wobble the first time this happened to our truck in march 2019 at 20,700 miles by installing a steering stabilizer (see attached document). This helped for a few months but now in november 2019 at a little over 30k miles the wobble is back and worse than before. The truck is currently at the dealership awaiting another stabilizer. But i'm not confident this is something ford is able (or willing?) to properly fix, and i have no confidence whatsoever in this vehicle anymore. I am terrified to drive it above 50 mph. I am terrified to drive it with my 2 children (aged 2. 5 yrs and 6 months) in the vehicle. I am filing this complaint in case anything happens to us while we're driving our truck, or in case this has happened to others and the outcome has been serious injury/ death. I have also notified ford of the problem.

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?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
