Have owned this truck for a couple of years and have been enduring the "Death Wobble" over the local train tracks, but I am always able to control my speed. But the other day while traveling down the interstate, I hit a pothole and truck was shaking until brought the truck to a stop. Luckily I was able to get off the road, but this event could have been much worse. Apparently this is a known problem, and it is a shame that the manufacturer has not fixed this obvious safety issue.

1) faulty head bolts repair was over $6000 involved gaskets, cracked heads, bolts, updates and upgrades. 2) death wobble front end issues (mine are fortunately occurring at at low speeds) however the wobble has caused many front end and steering components to wear out prematurely. Wobble kicks in after sharp turns and wheel will not return to center and when forced back to center it will wander and hunt for center. Usually up till 20-25mph then self corrects.

Pronounced and severe shimmy and oscillation in the steering wheel when traveling over small bumps or dips in the roadway and on uneven driving surfaces. Ford dealer confirmed the problem and replaced a tracking bar and the steering damper. These repairs helped but did not eliminate the issue. New oem tires were installed 2,000 miles after the Ford repair. As of Dec 2013 the vehicle now has 78,578 miles which is only 5,000 miles since the repair and 3,000 miles since new oem tires and the same severe shimmy and oscillation in the steering wheel is occurring again. In Dec 2013 I received special field action letter 09L02 from Ford concerning this very issue. Having complied with all points in the special field action letter 09L02 the same problem exists and continues to worsen. This is clearly a safety issue that Ford needs to address with a recall notice and the 09L02 letter is indicative that this is a wide-spread issue.

Recently, while driving my Ford F250 truck, I have experienced the Ford's death wobble' on three separate occasions. After driving over a bump in the roadway, the front end starts wobbling to the point that I have to brake and pull over just to stay in control of my vehicle. When this death wobble' occurs, it causes the driver has to fight the steering wheel and apply braking just to stay in control of the vehicle. It is a real safety concern!!!! recently, I have read several articles identify the problems with Ford's front end and their solutions to fix the fronts ends. As usual, Ford comes up with excuses and not a solution to repair their products. There is plenty of documentation (U-tube video) on-line documenting the serious of this complaint. It is time that your Agency takes a closer look at this problem and see that Ford accept responsibility to repair their vehicle.

Going along around 55 to 60 mph and run across very mild bump and the front wheels will begin to shimmy so bad it jerks the steering wheel back and forth. I have to hit the brakes and slow way down to get it to stop shaking. It is very dangerous feeling and is not tire pressure like Ford claims.

- Norman, OK, USA

High speed wheel oscillation occurred while driving the speed limit of interstate 275 around cincinnati, Ohio. I hit a bump on the exit of the interstates bridge and the steering wheel shook really bad left and right. I had received a letter last year warning me about this condition. I did not think I had a problem with this truck until this happened. I was lucky that I did not crash this vehicle when the oscillation occurred. I researched this on the internet and several other owners for the F250 have had the same problem. Ford needs to fix this problem before someone gets killed!

- Princeton, WV, USA

Hit a bump on interstate truck started shaking violently, I almost caused an accident and had to slow down to about 40 or it was going to shake me off the road, I could barely hold on, brought is it to the dealer and they said it was tire pressure, which was about 70lbs not the recommeded 75, come on that is not the problem. It is still doing it years later, wnet back to the dealer they said it was a brake hanging up and ripped me off for parts, still does it. I have now put on tires tie rod ends ball joints steering dampener, shocks and still does it. I know I'm not the only one. Make them fix this and compensate those of us who have tried to do so on our own because they won't accept that there is a problem.

My 2007 Ford F250, superduty 4X4, harley davidson edition (all stock), experienced extreme cavitation, or wobble, and violent shaking to the steering and front suspension after encountering a mild series of bumps while traveling about 50mph. This has occurred on 3 occasions. I have read 100's upon 100's of complaints online about this same problem with several different year model Ford trucks. I have taken my truck in to the Ford dealership and Ford has even admitted to the problem being with a design flaw and even has a correction for it that includes a newly designed bracket, relocating some steering components, and new specs for the front end alignment, but wants to charge me $1700 for the repair(or redesign). Unbelievable!!

When driving my Ford F-250 45 mph and over and hitting any kind of bump the front end shakes severely. The brakes when applied will stop the shaking. The damper was replaced but it did not help. If the bump and the speed was great enough it would cause you to crash. The truck has 38,000 mi. And the dealer tells me there is no recall and it is not under warranty. I plan on taking it to an independent front end specialist to diagnose the problem.
