Death wobble. The truck started violently shaking going down the highway. This truck was fixed 3 times for the same problem and every time Ford dealership guaranteed that the problem was fixed. My family was out at risk each time and the people that were driving the highway.

My 2019 F-250 usually at speeds above 50 mph begins to have violent shaking in the front end suspension/steering system when you hit a bump in the road. Problem can be so severe that you loose control of the truck while trying to avoid traffic to bring the truck to reduced speed to around 15/20 mph before it stops. Shaking.

I was driving my 2019 Ford F-250 with 11,000 miles on it down the interstate at 72 miles/hr. I went over an expansion joint and the truck started shaking violently. The traffic was heavy but all I could do was slam on brakes and pull to the shoulder to get it to stop. I inspected the truck but found nothing obvious. I took the truck to my local Ford dealer the next day and was told "this is common, we call it porpoising". they wouldn't even look at it. I have now spent almost $1000 dollars on a new adjustable track bar, premium shocks and a dual steering stabilizer to try and remedy this issue. This is a major safety issue and Ford is not going to fix it without NHTSA intervention.

While driving at speeds from 45-65mph on highway, truck will go into a violent shaking and entire vehicle will wobble and bounce. The steering wheel is impossible to control and only way to reduce the shaking episode is to slam on brakes and reduce speed to below 10mph. This is a common Ford front end problem and is usually referred to as the 'death wobble' and occurs in most Ford superdutys from 2005-2020

I bought this truck with 14000 miles 3 days ago. I was driving with kids 40mph when I hit a bump on road. The trick violently started shaking and did not stop until I completely stopped the truck. I called service and they said it is a death wobble and if they replace the manufacture part it will happen again in about 30K miles. I was driving on a city road when this happened.

- Peoria, AZ, USA

At approximately 55 mph, I hit a bump in the road and the steering began to wobble uncontrollably and I lost control of the vehicle. The only way to make it stop was to slow down to approximately 25 mph on a busy highway. Any time I hit a bump in the road at ~55 mph or more, this happens. Truck has 25800 miles. It has been doing this for the last couple of weeks, but up until this time, it was not near as bad. It is very dangerous and impossible to control without slowing down.

- Alma, AR, USA

Death wobble / severe shaking of steering wheel and almost lost control of vehicle. Was traveling down the road at around 70 mph and hit a rough patch in the pavement at a bridge. Ford should issue a mandatory safety recall and replace the entire front suspension system and steering system and whatever else it takes to fully resolve. People will get injured or killed if this is not fixed.

I have the Ford death wobble already been serviced after 1700 miles for this issue and don't think it solved the problem of a new steering stabilizer

Driving truck at about 50 mph hit pot hole then started to violently shake had to slow down to bring it under control

- Pine Grove, PA, USA

The problem has happened about 5 times now, the last time I was towing my work trailer. It seems it is always at or near highway speeds and only if I hit some rough pavement or the start or stop of a bridge. After I hit the rough spots the front end and steering wheel starts to shake very violently. I have to slow down drastically to get it to stop, maybe around 25 mph. The first few times where bad, but the last time with my enclosed trailer I was in the middle of I-75 in ft. Myers Florida and I thought for sure it was going to cause a wreck. Fortunately traffic was not to heavy and everyone was able to get out of my way as I made my way to the shoulder. I really like the truck, but I can not have this happen as I am on I-75 with my trailer just about every weekday it would have not been such a good outcome if it would have been normal traffic for this time of year.

While driving straight on a highway at approximately 55 mph my truck's steering wheel began to violently shake. It also felt as if the whole truck was shaking. I decreased my speed to approximately 30 mph and my truck quit shaking. This happened on 02/23/2020. This has happened 3 times since I have had my truck. One other time I was driving straight and the same thing happened. I was able to slow down and the truck quit shaking. The other time I was driving on a state highway and I was in a curve. The truck and steering wheel began to violently shake. I briefly lost control of the vehicle and went into the left lane. I slowed down and the shaking stopped. I was able to regain control of the vehicle. I will be contacting the dealer tomorrow morning on 02/24/2020. Luckily there was no oncoming traffic when my truck began to shake. After doing a little research, it seems that Ford has a problem with these vehicles and my truck seems to have a death wobble. I am the only owner of my truck and it has less than 7600 miles. My truck is fully stock with the 18 inch rims and stock tires.
