| Description of the problem | Starting at about 15000 miles, the death wobble started. When going anywhere above 55 mph, then going over semi-rough road or hitting a bump or expansion joint on the freeway, it goes into this death wobble. The steering wheel rotates back and forth rapidly and the whole truck shakes dramatically. When slowing down to about 20-30 mph, it stops. Speed back up again and it starts again. It is very dangerous. I have talked to the dealer multiple times. They have no parts to fix it. Supposedly it is the steering stabilizer that is failing. I have a case with ford customer care who have also been communicating with the dealer i bought it at. No resolutions as of yet. It continually death wobbles today. I can't seem to get anywhere on getting it fixed by ford under the warranty. |
