2018 has Death Wobble which has been reported by many and a recall was issued but we have taken it back 3 times for this recall/death wobble=tie rod, sector shaft, drag link replaced (the first time it wasn't recalled yet so we had to pay for it and still have not been reimbursed) last 2 times they fix the tie rod, shaft or whatever but it keeps happening and it is scary. Lucky not to have caused an accident. Also because of the "death wobble" it has ruined the alignment and some tracker line thing as well as our tires and we have to pay for those things even though it is caused by the death wobble/recall?! -Component described above, yes it is available for inspection upon request -Safety at risk because if we are going over 60 and hit a bump the vehicle starts to shake uncontrollably and we have to slam on the brakes to make it stop while going that fast with other vehicles going that fast we have almost caused several accidents and almost hit a barrier trying to stop it -yes problem has been preproduced, verified and supposedly fixed but never lasts more than a month --yes the vehicle component has been inspected by the manufacturer it is an open RECALL -NO WARNING LAMP, MESSAGE etc. Just uncontrollable shaking of vehicle if hits a bump

I was driving down I-69 running abround 75mph. All of the sudden, the truck started to violently shake as if both rear tires blew out. I gently pressed on the brakes to not exaserbate the issue. It was everything I could do to keep the truck on the road. Scariest moment of my life for sure. Looking in the rearview, I saw smoke coming from the tires and thought either my brakes locked up, bearing went bad in one of wheels or blown tires. As I slowed to 25 mph, the shaking stopped and I noticed that the engine was revving super high. I stopped the truck and checked out the brakes, tires, wheels and make sure nothing was wrapped around the axle. All clear. I can only assume the truck downshifted into 1st or 2nd gear. I did not see it happen but the rear tires lost traction and bounced around until I slowed down. I-69 through deleware county has recently been paved so I dont think I hit any big bumps before this happened. The truck has 38,028 miles on it and I have never had tranmission issue's with it. The occasional hard to start condition has happened a few times before. 5 -10 seconds turning over before starting but no tranmission issue's. this happened last night and since, I have had it up to 70 mph and it didnt happen again. Again though, this happened last night.

Multiple episodes of severe front end shaking and instability that occurs at highway speeds when driving over minimal bumps or other road imperfections. Recently this caused a loss of control when it occurred on a freeway not known to have ice spots at 50 mph. The only way I have been able to disrupt this is to quickly reduce speed to below 40 mph which is also dangerous on the freeway.

If you go over 60 mph and hit a bump or sometimes don't even have to hit a bump the whole truck and steering wheel wobbles out of control. Obviously they know about it as there is a nick name "the death wobble" for it. I took my truck in and now they want me to pay close to $800 to repair it when it is clearly a manufacturing defect that Ford has known about and has tried to conceal. There is a class action lawsuit started in California. Ford should be made to recall there F250 and F350's to do the repairs at no cost to the customer. We paid a lot of money for this vehicle. They say its ok just don't drive over 60 mph. It is very scary when it happens

Before the V8 gasoline engine reaches some prescribed operating temperature ( before the engine is fully warmed up ), when headed downhill, no low gears function in any mode and the engine experiences sudden unintended acceleration. The truck was purchased new in 2018. The Ford company has repeatedly acknowledged the defects, and however claims that all 2018 gasoline powered F250S are designed that way to meet certain standards and therefore everything is fine despite being extremely dangerous in certain circumstances. Please contact me for further elaboration with names, dates, and places. Thank you [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Truck is a 2018 Ford F250 and is leaking oil at 28,000 miles from the upper oil pan faulty robotic seal. This has coated my trucks underside in oil and has been slowly leaking for some time now as I just noticed yesterday after experiencing the death wobble in this truck.

On 4/19/19 I misfueled my diesel vehicle. I stopped the process immediately and called Ford from the filling station. The Ford service center said that I should avoid turning the engine on, or even placing the engine in accessory mode because it would engage the fuel pump and flood the system with gasoline. When the tow truck arrived, it became clear that I could not put the vehicle in neutral to be winched onto the flatbed tow truck without turning on the accessory mode. I called Ford for an alternative. Ford recommended that I disconnect a cable beneath the truck that would disengage the transmission and allow the truck to move. Because I could not figure out how to do this, I had to turn on the accessory to get the truck out of park for towing. This caused about $12,000 in damage to the fuel system. More to the point of this complaint, I later discovered that this procedure is not in the manual for my truck. Further, the procedure that is in the manual was not mentioned. It is possible that the Ford manual contains a procedure that does not apply to the truck. It is also possible that Ford is recommending a procedure that is inherently more dangerous than the procedure in the manual.

Between 60 to 75 mph when hitting certain bumps the steering starts violently shaking and will not stop till slow down to about 25 mph. This started at around 24K and has happened 10+ times. Also at 37K sync 3 radio no longer will come on and wiring issues cannot get trailer braking to connect to the truck. Lights work fine but always shows trailer disconnected so braking doesn't work. You can also start the truck in neutral and put it in any gear without having your foot on the brake.

While towing at speeds above 55-60 mph the vehicle starts to go through a harmonics type of vibration shaking the entire driver's compartment, steering wheel and dash. This vibration continues regardless if the vehicle speed is increased and doesn't stop until the speed is lowered below 55-60 mph.
