Returning from nashville to mandeville, la we hi it a bump in the road at 70 mph when the truck began volently vibrating. Similar to a blown tire. We had to pull off the highway for it to stop. It happened four times in less than an hour.

At 8,600 miles, while driving down the interstate at 70mph, , I drove over the seams on a overpass. There was a shimmy and then the steering wheel began to violently shake back and forth resulting in loss of control of the truck. The next week I took it into the Ford dealer and they performed a wheel alignment and said the truck was fixed. At 12,000 miles after passing over some minor bumps the same experience happened again resulting in loss of control of the vehicle and having to stop immediately in traffic almost resulting in a auto pileup. Back to the dealership where I got another wheel alignment, bushings replaced. Told it was fixed. Happened again at 17,400 miles, 19,000 miles and 20,500 miles resulting in returning to the Ford dealership.put new steering stabilizer on and said it was fixed. At 23,500 the same experience happened again. Currently scheduled for 4th trip to Ford dealership on 1/13/2020. I have copies of all the "attempted repair" orders from Ford.

In Oct of 2019 my truck, a 2017 Ford F250, developed the "death wobble." While travelling on I-25 in Colorado springs, at approx 65 mph, I was changing lanes over a bridge joint. The truck started to shake uncontrollably, forcing me to cross a lane of traffic. I made an appointment with the dealership I purchased from and repairs were done in accordance with tsb 19-2274. The invoice number was 912963 from phil long Ford chapel hills, Colorado springs co. The truck mileage at the time of service was 24298. The stock tires were/are still on the truck and no modifications have been made to the truck. As of Jan 2020, the truck has started having the same issues. I have an appointment on 17 Jan 2020 to re-address the issue. The current mileage on the truck is 27631 and stock tires are still on the vehicle and no modifications have been made to the vehicle.

Vehicle hits slight pothole and steering shimmies uncontrollably until I slow vehicle to 40 to 50 mph. Took it to dealers twice for steering stabilizer replacement and only temporarily fixed problem. Now I will take to the dealer a third time for correction. Two significant safety considerations when traveling at highway speeds and the 'death wobble' occurs: The vehicle is nearly uncontrollable during the wobble event; and on a busy highway at speed the vehicle must be slowed to 40-50 mph, creating an unexpected slowdown for drivers/vehicles traveling behind.

When traveling at highway speeds between 55 to 70 mph and hit a bump the steering wheel and cab vibrates violently and need to slow down to 30 to 40 mph to stop the vibration. This occurred several times on a major interstate with heavy truck traffic and almost caused a accident when slowing down to maintain control and pull off the shoulder. I got off the interstate and drove an hour out of my way to avoid traveling at highway speeds. 2017 Ford F-250 24000 miles.

I just had two experiences with 'death wobble' in one day and it was my first time dealing with it. I was traveling at about 65 mph hit a hit a bump in the road on a small county road that sent my truck front steering jerking back and forth and I had to pull off the road to get it back under control. I thought it was a tire issue and got out and look at tires and shocks and linkage to find nothing wrong. Second is the worst, I had my family in the truck on the way home and I hit another bump in the road when it started again. I this is very unnerving and I don't feel safe driving especially with family in truck

I was driving my truck on christmas day and hit a small bump on the highway and all of a sudden my truck started shaking violently and was hard to control. I slowed down to approx. 30-35 mph and the shaking went away. This is the second time this has happened. I took it to the dealer and the service tech said it was 'death wobble' and even put that on the service order. They said they would order a new improved stabilizer and that it would it would be take 6-8 weeks to receive the part. I am now with a truck that my wife and grandkids will not ride in and I am concerned about driving it. The shaking is very violent and the vehicle is very hard to control. Then, having to slow to 30mph in a middle lane on the highway is very dangerous and could cause a serious accident.

- Belleville, IL, USA

Driving on highway between 60mph and 80mph if rough patch or bump the road is hit the truck will start shaking violently and the steering will lock up. The problem does not correct itself until the truck is slowed to 30mph. It is starting to happen more often. Today with my kids in the car it happened and I almost hit a concrete highway divider. I have taken the truck to the dealership and was told that Ford is aware of the problem but the parts that are to fix it dont remedy the issue. Basically there's nothing they can do at this point. This problem is going to cause an accident so I am not driving the expensive truck I've had for only a year and definitely will not have my kids in it until something is fixed.

At 55mph and above the steering shakes violently after hitting a bump in the road.

- Pingree Grove, IL, USA

At driving speeds when the vehicle hits a crack or dump in the road, the front end shakes violently at which point the vehicle steering is compromised and can only be stopped with a quick deceleration to regain control.

Vehicle is 100% factory equipment.no changes made to vehicle. Current odometer 23,750 miles. Have experienced "death wobble" 3 times always while traveling about 70 mph. Extremely unsafe. Typically it begins travelling about 70 mph and contacting an expansion joint in the road or some similar uneven pavement. Truck front end begins shaking uncontrollably until speed is reduced to about 50 mph. Have done extensive research and know this is alarmingly common on 2017-18-19 F250/350. I personally have 2 friends who own 2018 & 2019 F-250 and both have experienced the same "death wobble". dealer states the needed part to repair problem is on backorder. Also stated currently there are 43K of these components on B/O. these numbers make it extremely apparent Ford has a huge problem with potentially thousands of unsafe vehicles on the road. The defect usually begins at 15K to 25K miles. As these trucks reach that threshold it will only be a matter of time until someone is killed or severely injured. It is imperative that Ford issue a national recall on these model trucks.

Stock vehicle. While travailing on freeway front of trick started shaking severely. Slowed down to pull over and inspect. Thank goodness no one was around me at the time. Truck was swerving at 65 miles an hour. Pulled over to inspect. Did not see anything. Started back on freeway going slower. Shaking was gone. 2 weeks later same thing. On highway again. Same thing truck started shaking violently. Slowed to 25 mi per hr. Shaking subsided, resumed to slower speed. Ford needs to fix this issue. Reading about death wobble issues in Ford diesel NHTSA. Dealership told me to get in right away. 2nd person within a week to call for same thing.

I was on an interstate going into a gradual turn and went over an expansion joint which resulted in uncontrollable shaking of the front wheels and steering wheel. This forced me off of the road striking a curb and blowing out my right front tire. My truck had done minor shaking for several months when going over expansion joints. I have had 2 other violent shaking events when in excess of 55 mph. I will no longer drive above 50 mph in this vehicle as it is unsafe. Minor road irregularities are resulting in increased but controllable shaking at this point. It is worse when turning or on a curve. It still shakes even on a straight roadway at lower speeds just not as violently. The vehicle has less than 30,000 miles and tire rotation has been conducted as set out in the owners manual.

- Smithfield, VA, USA

When traveling at speeds over 50miles per hour, if the truck hits a bump it will start to vibrate and shake violently driver has to hang on and brake the truck down to 20to30miles per hour. Dealership knows of this problem and actually wrote on my paperwork death wobble. Replaced steering damper and adjusted air pressure which worked for awhile but happened again Jan 6 2020. First time wobble was end of Sept 2019 four times this has happened and it is very dangerous problem!! I do not trust the safety of this truck !

Vehicle has experienced the well-known-by-Ford death wobble. First time was at approx. 29K miles. Took it to dealership and they too were well aware of this problem. They performed the known "fix" and vehicle was okay for a bit. The second time the problem occurred (approx. 40K miles), there was a palpable difference in the feel of the steering post-event. Subsequent to the first experience, I moved and the first dealership was over 100 miles away, so I took the vehicle to my local dealership (along with the paperwork from the first fix). Again, service techs were well-versed in the death wobble and they claimed that Ford had rolled out a new "fix" and that what the first dealership had done was incorrect. An extended warranty was purchased with this vehicle; however this dealership was unable to locate it and tried to charge me for this fix. Whether they could locate the warranty or not, this is a continued problem and the consumer should not have to pay for this fix at any point in the life of the vehicle. Several rounds of back and forth later, Ford finally agreed to pay. Within one month of this "fix", another death wobble occurred. The vehicle has been back at the dealership for almost a week, and we have again gone back and forth on payment. The dealership did finally locate the extended warranty, but again...the consumer should not have to pay as it is a Ford problem. All times that this has occurred, I have been traveling at a high rate of speed (over 70 mph) and am forced to immediately slam on the brakes and get to the shoulder. I am frequently towing items, and can't imagine how this would go down if it occurred in that instance. Ford continues to roll out these $75,000+ trucks knowing that this problem is not fixed. I now have, again, a $75K vehicle I feel is unsafe to drive. Dealership states they see this daily. How is this legal"?"

Death wobble at 70mph on 4 lane state highway. I have to reduce speed to <35mph for it to stop. Happening more & more frequent.

- Sallisaw, OK, USA

When driving at approximately 50mph and coming into contact with any uneven spots in the road the truck will shake violently and jump up and down left and right so bad that it is impossible to do anything but hit the brakes.when the vehicle slows to about 30mph the shaking subsides and is fine until the next bump in the road.. it happened 3 times in 5 mins and in less than 1 mile distance on a state highway.. this is a serious problem and needs corrected before someone is killed.. the first time it happened I had about 8000 miles on my vehicle, it has happened 10 times since, every time at speeds greater than 50mph

While driving this vehicle and after hitting a bump or dip in the road the vehicle experiences the death wobble. It is even more pronounced while pulling a horse trailer and this makes the truck extremely difficult to steer much less retain control of. It has happened 3 times since I purchased this truck. The first two times were covered under warranty but now the truck has 38,000 miles on it and the repair is no longer covered. The last time it was repaired the part was supposed to be covered for 12,000 miles and the mileage on the truck was just over that mile marker and the dealer said it would not be covered this time. The latest part replacement is apparently on backorder and we are forced to drive this unsafe vehicle until we can get it repaired once again.

My F-250 had about 26,000 miles on it when I first experienced the "death wobble". while driving at 75 mph I went over an expansion joint on the interstate in ks. It was at this time the pickup started violently shaking and the steering wheel was dangerously difficult to control with the oscillation. After slowing to around 30 mph the oscillation stopped. The smell of burning rubber filled the cab. This same even happened two more times within an hour and a half. After the first incident I could feel the death wobble start in the steering wheel a second or less before the violent shaking started. All three times it occurred on the interstate at speeds of 75 and 70 mph. I do not trust the safety of this vehicle!!!

Ford repair shop called and said the issue was corrected. Test drove. Both the owner and service tech experienced the problem when driving the truck. Service tech placed truck back in the shop for further repairs. This is the fourth time for this repair with 20,000 highway miles on the truck. Issue was steering wheel vigorously and uncontrollably when encountering a slight imperfection on a straight, level, and paved highway.
