 Description of the problemWhile driving approximately 65mph in the far right lane, west bound on the us 60, about mcclintock dr in mesa az, in my 2018 ford f250, i hit a small pot hole in the pavement, the truck instantly began jerking violently. It rapidly moved the truck toward the left hand lane. It was all i could do to get the truck back in my lane and slowly move to the shoulder. The violent wobble did not stop until about 35mph. I do not know what caused this. I got out to look at the truck, it appeared normal. I got back on the freeway and in about a mile, hit a expansion joint in the road and caused the truck to do it again. I called san tan ford to get the truck in to service, i dropped it off the same day. This is an extreme and violent wobble with no warning signs and very little ability to control the truck. Definitely a safety concern. I have since researched and found similar concerns with the 2017 -2019 f250 calling it a death wobble. Sounds right. The truck has under 13000 miles on it. I noticed at the dealer, while walking with the service tech, the tires seem to have strange wear pattern on the outside tread. It is a fully stock vehicle with no additions or alterations. All routine maintenence work has been done at the san tan ford, the same dealer as purchase. The dealer told me there was a bulletin out on the problem.
