Brought truck into ford dealer and determined steering wheel dampener was bad and replaced under warranty which Ford extended due to known issue. No warning lamps or prior issue before that day.

I was travelling at approximately 70 MPH and hit a small bump on the interstate. The steering started to wobble violently, resulting in the need to stop on the side of the interstate to correct the wobble. This occurred a few time prior, but the wobble resolved after 1 - 2 seconds.

I Have had 3 incident to my truck where it starting violently shaking and i could not steer the truck> I had heard this is known as the death wobble and that everyone knows about it and yet there is still no reacall?? I had it fixed under warrenty at 19,545 miles. Now it is out of warrenlty as of Dec 8th 2023 and I had two incident on Dec 10th ( 2 days after warrently expired) I believe I have around 47,000 miles on it now. I also paid for and extended warrentty and they said they dont know if it will cover it. This is very scary as I had 4 kids in my car taking my son to his birthday party and we all thought we were going to die. We were in the fast lane and the car behind us was honking and I could not even steer the truck. There are all kinds of videos on the internet showing that this is a known issue with 2019 fords and yet there are no recalls. So i guess if we die next time it will be just " oh well. there is nothing to be done. I am scared to death to ever drive this truck again. Please do something about the death wobble.

Over the past 100 miles my F250 4x4 has nearly lost control because of a violent shaking, or wobbling of the front end. It has happened four (4) times when driving on paved surfaces at approximately 50-55mph; it has happened once while I was braking at approximately 45mph (this would be the 5th time). I immediately slowed down (without hard braking) when the wobbling occurred, but I believe that if I hadn't, the vehicle could have been forced into the opposite lane of travel. The current mileage is 28,859 It is available for inspection I'm taking it into my Ford dealership (for the first time) tomorrow to tell it about the problem, but it was also recommended I report the issue here because of numerous similar complaints. No dash warning lights came on before, during, or after the incidents. Thank you

While traveling on interstate I hit a bump and experienced -??death wobble-?? and was barely able to control steering wheel. Had to slow to 20 mph to get it to stop.

My car has death wobble issues. If I go more than 30-40mph on the highway the car starts shaking violently and uncontrollably and swerves side to side. It is a very scary experience. This has happen multiple times. We have brought to the different shops ans change several components but after a month or so the issue comes back. Until recently I brought to a ford dealer and came to find out about the defective problem on this this type of cars. Unfortunateluly ford doesnt want to pay for the entire repair cost.

I am unsure on what malfunctioned. When driving if we hit a bump in the road or the road is uneasy the truck begins to violently shake to the point we have to completely stop the vehicle. We have had it at numerous shops across the state and no one can tell us what is wrong. They say everything is fine with it. There are no lights on the dash signaling anything is wrong. We consider this a HUGE safety risk not only to ourselves and our kids but other drivers on the road as well. It could cause a major accident if someone was to lose control while shaking. This puts us, our family, and other drivers at risk.

Driving at 50 mph+, I have experienced a violent wobble in the truck that can only be stopped by coming to a complete stop with my truck. this has happened multiple times. I have read up on this and it seems to be called the -??death wobble-?? and can not be fixed. I have had a baby and another small child in the truck with me at one of the occurrences. This wobble causes me to almost lose control over the vehicle. Is there a recall I am unaware of for the suspension and steering? I have read that customers have tried to fix the issues and have not been able to. My family uses this truck often as we don-??t have another option at the moment. Another worry is that this wobble has damaged other components of the truck that I am unaware of. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Any sudden jolt to the front passenger side wheel causes the truck to do the death wobble. It happened 3 times yesterday (12/31/23) within a 1 hour time frame. The only way to stop it is to let the truck gradually come to a stop and then start back again. The whole truck jumps and the steering wheels shakes uncontrollably.

I have now experienced the Ford Death Wobble two different times driving at high rates of speed 70-75mph that has almost caused serious accidents on state i75 and I10 in Florida. My family was in the truck and I was able to save it from hitting the guard rail.

Steering and suspension were compromised at highway speeds upon hitting a mild change in surface (such as a bridge expansion joint). The front axle bounces and shakes violently and steering is extremely difficult. Reducing speed (below highway speed while on a highway in traffic) eventually ends the violent shaking and bouncing. This problem has not been confirmed by a dealer or independent service center nor has it been inspected by others. There were also no warning lamps or messages.

-??Death wobble-?? vehicle was at highway speed when hit a bump and cause the vehicle to shake violently, causing unsafe driving conditions with lack of control.

- Rough And Ready , CA, USA

Traveling at highway speeds on the interstate the truck began to shake violently and the steering wheel began shaking so hard that I had difficulty holding onto it. The truck was out of control and I almost went into the guard rail before I could slow down to a stop and bring the truck under control. I made it to my destination and looked at the underside of the truck and could not find anything broken. On the way back home, the truck did the same thing again after hitting a bump and I had to stop again to get the steering wheel to stop shaking - which was very concerning because of the amount of traffic I was in. There was no warning either time that this was going to happen. Going to the dealership tomorrow!

Driving on the highway at speeds above 60 mph and hitting seams or bumps in the road, the front suspension starts to violently shake. It is random when it happens. The shaking causes the whole truck and steering wheel to shake uncontrollably. The only way to stop the shaking is to slow to below 40 mph. This happens at random places and times. There is no warning and the entire truck and steering wheel is fully involved in violent shaking within 3 seconds.

I was driving on US 59 while pulling a 30' Airstream Travel trailer with my 2019 F250 truck when the steering system started violently shacking preventing from controlling the vehicle. The truck and trailer veered across the center line before I could regain control. I was traveling 65 mph at the time. In May 2023, I was notified by Ford that the warranty for the steering damper had been extended as there have issues with steering system vibrating excessively preventing control of the vehicle. This need to be change to an immediate safety recall.

I was driving on I-215E in Las Vegas on October 16, 2023 at approximately 5:15pm, and I hit a bump in the road around 1 mile west of the I-15 interchange. I was moving at approximately 65 MPH and my truck started violently shaking. I was forced to come to a nearly complete stop in rush hour traffic to stop the shaking and ultimately had to pull over to the shoulder to take a pause before being able to continue my commute. Fortunately, I was not towing my boat, but I feel that this could have been a deadly accident if I was towing. This is a major problem.
