This vehicle has had a death wabble in it for the past three years and has never been fixed even though it has been in the shop for the same issue multiple times

We were driving down the highway going 60mph. All of a sudden there was a loud bang and the rear sliding window exploded inside of the cab. We had our dogs with us lying in the back the glass flew into the back and even down our clothes. Nothing hit the truck. We immediately pulled over and got as much glass out of the car. It landed everywhere. It was very scary. The photo below is of the passenger side front seat. The glass blew down my shirt.

Was on the highway and the truck started shaking violently and I lost control of the steering. Happened twice. Just had to take my foot off the gas, hope for the best and get off the highway. Took it to a dealership and they replaced the steering damper. On the way from Maine to Florida, it happened again in South Carolina. Truck again is shaking at highway speed and no control of steering. The supposed fix did not actually fix the problem. With a sudden inability to steer, the truck is unsafe to drive at highway speeds.

Severe cases of the death wobble. Hit the slightest bump in the road going over 50 and the steering wheel shakes uncontrollably until you slow down to 10-20 mph. I have almost been in 3 wrecks now on the interstate from this issue. Ford told me the steering stabilizer bar is or backorder until mid January. I have a 60K truck I can't drive and not positive the steering dampner will even fix the issue.

A/C condenser damaged by road debris per local Ford dealer and needs to be replaced at a cost of $995. The grille has large holes in it that I can put my hand and forearm through on each side of the Ford emblem which is allowing road debris to damage the radiators. The local Ford dealer said they had other Ford F-250's come in with the same issue and also another one where a bird went through one of these large holes and took out another guys radiator. In my opinion this is a manufacturing defect / error that was poorly designed and end up costing the consumer alot of money to fix. The Ford dealer is telling me that when I get it fixed I need to put a metal screen behind the grille or it will happen again. I have 63,000 miles on my pickup now and have own Chevy pickups with over 100,000 miles and never had road debris damage a A/C condenser or a radiator.

My truck only has about 42,000 miles and out of no were it started shaking real bad at highway speeds. As soon as a bump or bridge conection was hit the vibration of the vehicle would increase to a point were you have to slow down to almost a complete stop to be able to regain control of the vehicle again. Due to this I was inches away from hitting the center barrier on a freeway after nearly losing control of the vehicle completly. I had taken it to the dealership due to a small vibration and they replaced the steering dampener on the warranty and out of my pocket the steering drag link and it helped but was still getting a vibration and no more than a week later the same thing happened almost took me out of the road. Im not aure what is causing this but it has to get corrected.

I have experienced violent shacking of the steering wheel and entire truck. I had this issue present itself over 6 times since purchasing it in Sept. 2016. I purchased the truck brand new from a Ford dealership. First and second instance were in late 2017with less approximately 18K miles. All instances have happened while driving on interstate at 60 mph or higher. The steering wheel starts to shake and then continues to violently shake and the entire cab is shaking. Lose of steering control. Only stopped after forcibly slowing down truck to below 25 mile per hour causing possible collision with other vehicles or barriers. Have taken it to Ford dealership after the second instance and they say Ford is not acknowledging the issue and could do nothing about it. In may of 2020, the dealer did acknowledge that their was an issue and they replaced steering damper under warranty but after 4 months the issue came back more violently than before. On Oct. 28th, 2020, it occurred 4 times while driving within a 40 mile distance. This time the truck should so violently I had to almost come to a complete stop on the interstate to make it stop shacking. Road were wet and and in heavy traffic. I do not feel that it is safe to drive truck anymore while this issue present. I have re-contacted the dealership and mentioned the issue and service they performed back in may, they did not return call for assistance.

When it rains there is water dripping from my passenger side a pillar trim panel and glove box puddling on the floor boards. The Ford dealer near me has water tested the truck and has not found anything, so they would like a contracted glass specialist to inspect the windshield seal even though they couldn't find a leak in it.

Has happened three times. While driving truck will buck then lose total power and will not restart. Always happens at highway speeds.

- Conyers, GA, USA

I have a 2017 F-250 with 24,000 miles on it recently started the "death wobble". usually only happens at higher speeds (60 or better) and after hitting a "rough patch" in the road or bridge joints. Ford seems to say it's because some of us aren't always carrying +/- 1000 lbs of cargo. I wonder if the problem has to do with the 800 lbs they took off the tare weight of the truck when they went to the aluminum body in 2017?

Vehicle will shake violently when traveling 50+ mph and it hits a bump in the roadway. The vehicle is uncontrollable and requires immediate deceleration until the shaking smoothes out enough to safely resume driving. When this happens while traveling on the interstate this poses an extreme risk of having or causing a motor vehicle collision.

- Hardinsburg, KY, USA

When driving the truck at highway speeds, the steering wheel goes into an uncontrollable whipping, or the famous "death wobble" after you hit bumps in the road. You need to bring the truck down in speed to get it to stop. This condition is not safe on the highway with traffic around you, and is very upsetting and scary when it happens. This happens at highway speeds after you hit bumps. This happened to me twice on our trip back from Florida to Wisconsin. I had a 5th wheel camper attached to the truck when this happened, so I was even more afraid of losing control with that amount of trailer in tow.

- Appleton, WI, USA

On highway. At about 70 mph truck started to shake violently which I call death wobble. I had to slam the break and pull over immediately to avoid crashing. This truck had less than 20K miles on it when it happened and continued to happen up until I sold it in 2019

- Troy, MI, USA

Death wobble....almost lost control of the truck. Happens several times a week.

- Farmington, MO, USA

At 71 mph while the truck was on cruise control going down the interstate, I went over a bridge and the truck began to violently shake like it was coming apart. The truck's back end started to come around on me like it was skidding and went back and forth a couple times. The road was completely straight and dry so there shouldn't be any reason this would have happened either. Cars on both sides of me went to the shoulder and ditch trying to get out of the way. I slowed down to about 30 mph and the shaking stopped. I took the truck to the Ford dealer and they instantly knew what I was describing and call it the Ford death wobble. The truck has 15,500 miles on it with original tires, never been in an accident or any other reason to do this. Very scary and I won't let the family in it now. The Ford dealership said it will most likely happen again as they have trucks come back over and over trying to fix it but there isn't a legitimate fix from Ford.

I was traveling on a highway doing approximately 70 mph (speed limit). When I hit a bridge expansion joint the truck started violently vibrating to the point I was losing control of the vehicle. I rapidly decelerated and the violent shaking stopped after I slowed the vehicle to approximately 25 mph. The shaking was so violent I was seconds away from veering off the road into the trees. There is a technical bulletin from Ford about this issue, but it is not a recall. Someone is likely going to die for what is obviously a design and/or manufacturing defect. The technical bulletin from Ford on this issue is: Tsb# 18- 2268. Nthis needs to be a recall.

- Kittery, ME, USA

Driving about 60 miles per hour on a state maintained highway I hit a small depression in the road and the front end of the truck and the steering column started to shake violently to the point I had very little control of the vehicle. I was able to pull over and stop. I understand there is a class action lawsuit against Ford describing the death wobble effect. That description is exactly what I experienced.

- Dallas, GA, USA

Driving in between 50 and 65 I hit a bump or pot hole in the road the front end starts to shake and shakes the whole cab of the truck bad. Truck has 29K miles. Had to slow down to 30 mph to get it to stop shaking.
