 Description of the problemMy 2018 f-250 super duty (purchased new) developed death wobble at 21,700 miles. While driving at freeway speeds (55 to 70 mph) after hitting a small sharp bump, the truck began to shake violently requiring me to rapidly decrease speed and come to a complete stop on the side of the freeway. I immediately contacted ford. The dealership told me the parts were on back order. I returned to the dealer once they received the part. Dealership replaced the steering damper and the issue went away. At around 39,000 miles the issue appeared again, this time worse than before. On a business trip from wausau to milwaukee and back the vehicle began to shake violently 5 separate times on the same day. Each time the only way to regain control of the vehicle was to pull to the shoulder and come to a complete stop. I again immediately called the for dealer and have an appointment today. Abrupt bumps in the road, rough road, bridge seams all seem to make the f-250 shake to the point of almost loosing control of the vehicle. If i was pulling my camper, trailer or if road conditions were poor i am sure this would have ended in a horrible accident. I live in central wi and the winter season is just beginning. If the truck were to do this on an ice or snow covered road chances of getting it back under control would be impossible and could result in death or serious injury.
