My truck started violently shaking on the freeway at 65 mph when hitting rough patch on highway. Almost crashed due to having to slow down and steering being almost impossible to control. Cars behind me swerved to avoid me. My 2 year old was in the. Back seat and was terrified with myself and my girlfriend riding passenger.

At 75mph on interstate 95 I drove over a portion of the road that ent from asphalt to concrete back to asphalt it has a slight dip when I experienced a violent shaking in my front end I almost lost control and had to almost come to a complete stop during rush hour to regain control of my truck mind you I drive a tractor trailer fire truck for over 40 years and this incident involving my new truck actually scared me! whatever the issue is it definitely involves the front end of the truck I recently purchased the truck with 20,000 miles it has 21,400 on it as of today it came with a 30,000 or 3 year manufacture warranty I called Ford customer service and was put on hold and transferred a couple of times with no explanation but to contact a Ford dealership to have them look for the problem

I reported this same problem with the front suspension (death wobble) just after 5000 miles and has happened again with approximately 17,000 miles. My wife and I were almost involved in an accident as I tried to recover and slow the truck off the two lane highway. The truck has been into the dealership numerous times with still no definite solution, they have replaced the steering stabilizer shock at least twice and the track bar once along with checking all front end components it has done little to fix the problem. I have been told by the dealer if I have considered doing a dual shock stabilizer myself as this has been shown to reconcile some of the problems related to this issue yet the truck should not have these kinds of wear problems at just over 17,000 miles. Ford continues to mask the problem while waiting for its customers to seriously be injured or even killed. I feel as if this serious problem falls on deaf ears as the oldest and biggest truck manufacturer has skirted its responsibility to consumer safety. Please help us solve this issue immediately before more people are hurt or killed!.

At speeds above 60 mph vehicle has frequent violent front wheel shake/shimmy and has nearly caused numerous accidents whenever encountering uneven road services. Michelin tires are in excellent condition and balanced perfectly. This is so severe my wife will not drive the vehicle nor will she allow our grandchild to ride in the vehicle. I will only drive it on rare instances. Vehicle has less than 10,000 miles, is completely stock and has never been off pavement (offroading).

2019 F250 steering stabilizer failed causing excessive uncontrollable vibration in steering at highway speeds towing 5th wheel trailer or not towing until vehicle is brought to full stop causing high probability of rear end collision and loss of life. This occurred at ~21K miles. Ford replaced part. Excessive uncontrollable vibration in steering again started again at 37K miles. Ford will replace steering stabilizer again at no cost, but wants me to pay for front end bushing replacement at $630.

2019 F-250 "death wobble", this occurred in August 2019 with less than 5,000 miles on the vehicle, it was taken into the dealership for repair. The "death wobble occurred again November 3, 2020 and again November 18, 2020. All three times this has happened I have been on the interstate going the posted speed limit of 75 mph. This happens on bridge transitions. The vehicle was again taken in both times for repair. I keep getting told by Ford this "should" fix the problem. I am scared of this vehicle as it is a danger to myself and to others on the highway. I have requested a buy back from Ford as this is the third time it has happened on a new vehicle that now have 9,550 miles on it. Ford has denied the buy back.

- Harlingen, TX, USA

Experienced "death wobble" 5 times. 3 in one trip and the other two about 2 months apart each all around 70-75mph. Dealer says not under warranty because we have installed Ford approved leveler kit; all else is factory. "death wobble" started around 34K miles, but thought it was at first very bumpy road because the roads were under construction

- San Marcos, TX, USA

Driving at highway speed (60+) in a straight direction, under dry conditions of 55 degrees F, I encountered a short patch of paved road with a rough or washboard surface. Suddenly the vehicle began to encounter severe sustained steering wheel oscillation which shook the entire vehicle, reduced my ability to steer the vehicle, and resulted in the vehicle entering the oncoming lane of traffic. After slowing the vehicle to approximately 40mph, the oscillation ended and I was able to regain steering control. This occurred again shortly after encountering a similar road surface. The vehicle was unloaded except for the 4 occupants.

Twice this past weekend, I experienced what the dealership calls "death wobble". the steering wheel and entire truck started shaking violently after going over uneven asphalt. The first occurence was on the highway around 75mph and the second time was at approximately 55mph. It felt like the truck was going to shake itself apart and I had very little steering until I slowed the truck down below 20mph. In both instances, I was seriously concerned for my life (and I don't scare easliy in vehicles). After reading on the internet, it appears this is a widespread issue with Super Duty Ford. Surprised this is happening to a truck with only 33,000 miles on it! I am scheduling a time for the truck to go back to the dealership.

Ford F-250 at highway speed (50-70mph) will become totally unstable after hitting an uneven section of road, bump, pot hole. Vehicle begins to shake violently. Vehicle control is not gained until the truck is slowed down to 15-20 mph. Other cars notice and slow down, to avoid possible collision. The issue is and will result in a fatal accident. Vehicle was taken to dealership for this issue and was told they could not duplicate the problem. The issue was explained and nothing was done to solve the problem.

Vehicle (2019 Ford F250 XLT) experienced what is commonly referred to as the "death wobble". when hitting a bump or irregularity along the interstate, at highway speeds (70 mph and above), the entire vehicle and steering column shook violently and was uncontrollable. I experienced this event twice on a recent trip out of state, with my grandchildren in the vehicle. I immediately stopped at a mechanic shop, and described the event to the mechanic, who informed me that this is a common problem with the Ford F250, and although there are measures than can be implemented to reduce the issue with the faulty front end suspension and design, the "death wobble" will most likely continue. I have spoken with several other Ford F250 owners who are experiencing the same issue with their vehicles. These vehicles are unsafe to drive at highway speeds, and are putting the occupants of the vehicle, and and other highways travelers in the vicinity of the vehicle, at risk of injury or death. As far as video documentation of the incident, please go to you tube, and enter Ford F250 "death wobble". you will see several instances of this event. In speaking with the Ford Motor Company, I was informed that the front end of the F250S were re-designed in the year 2020, and that the "death wobble" is no longer an issue. This does nothing to help the people who purchased the F250S between 2011 and 2019. Thank you.

In the last two weeks my 2019 F-250 truck has started shaking when reaching speeds around 50 mph. The entire front end of the truck starts rattling and steering wheel starts jolting back and forth at a rapid pace causing you to not have control of the vehicle. This occurs on well paved roads, highways and interstates. When searching for what the cause may be for this issue, I find hundreds of complaints and reports about the "death wobble". this definitions is exactly what is occurring with my vehicle. I have had the 2019 truck for just over a year and have less than 40,000 miles on it. I did buy the extended warranty on the truck so hopefully Ford will honor it and fix it correctly so I can safely drive it again.

- Lynden, WA, USA

Truck experiences 'death wobble' meaning it starts to shake violently while driving (in motion) making it uncontrollable. This occurs most often on the freeway. Truck has already received what Ford said repairs the issue, but issue still continues

- Houston, TX, USA

Initially the vehicle was very hard to gain control of the steering while going over expansion joints on the interstate during a recent trip. Really scary event with my son in the vehicle. Today I hit a pothole while getting on the onramp to the interstate at about 65mph. The steering wheel wobbled uncontrollably. I had 2 18 wheelers beside me and traffic behind me approaching fast. I had to come to a complete stop on the shoulder while almost getting rammed in the rear. Same day I hit a small bump in the road going 70 mph and with no traffic around the same thing happened. Steering wheel vibrated uncontrollably and my wife was able to video the incident. I had to pull to the shoulder and come to a stop for the shaking to stop. 2 times in the same day for the steering wheel to shake but the 3 time in a week that I have been scared to death I was about to die in a vehicle accident.

Truck has 26,600 miles, tires rotated from new per manual at Ford dealer. Tire pressures at spec. Normal tire wear. 90% pavement driven. On familiar two lane paved state road during clear weather while traveling between 70-75mph upon hitting a slight bump in the road the steering wheel began oscillating at a high rate with my complete inability to control the vehicle. The road had a slight curve to the right and I was unable to manipulate the trucks direction causing an oncoming vehicle to leave their lane into the shoulder to avoid collision. Immediately upon this happening I let off of the accelerator and did not apply the brakes for fear of losing control further with a vehicle oncoming. Once the vehicle passed I firmly applied the brakes and upon slowing to about 40-45mph the truck self corrected and I regained full control. Immediately after the incident my steering wheel is now 3-5 degrees off center to the right hand side in order to maintain a straight track when driving. The next day the truck exhibited the wobble at speeds between 60-75mph after hitting minor potholes and bridge approaches at least 3 times in a normal course of driving. My local Ford dealers service advisor said I had experienced the "death wobble" and that they would replace the steering dampner and re-align the truck under warranty. I am not convinced this is the total solution and I am very skeptical of continuing to drive this vehicle. Had I been on a busier road I am not sure the outcome would have been the same.

Our 2019 F250 first experienced "death wobble" in March of 2020 while driving down the interstate. The steering dampner was replaced at that time. We then had "death wobble" occur for the second time October 2020, once again driving 75 mph down the interstate. The steering dampner was replaced for the second time. Here we are in November 2020, two weeks after having the damper replaced again and we are experiencing "death wobble" for the third time. Every time this has happened while driving on the highway at least at 70-75 mph. We called Ford after the second time and were told we had to have the issue occur 3 times before they would do anything.

My wife and I were driving down E-470 near southlands mall, when we hit a bridge joice followed immediately by a pot hole. This subsequently caused our 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty lariat with a little over 27K miles, to begin shaking uncontrollably, to where we had to slow to 20 mph and veer for the side of the road, or risk being propelled into the neighboring vehicle. Completely unsafe and ridiculous to see this out of a new truck. Scared the living hell out of us. And we consistantly trailer horses, if this were to happen while we were trailer our horses?? oh my god.

- Pueblo West, CO, USA

I experienced the "death wobble". I was driving on a highway in Oregon and as I crossed onto a bridge on the grande ronde river at about 50 mph, the steering wheel started shaking violently. I gradually slowed down and regained control. I took the truck to a Ford dealer and they replaced the steering dampener. The service advisor told me that this was the second time that the truck had been repaired for that issue. The truck had fewer than 27,000 miles and the dampener had been replaced twice.
