This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Ford dealer.
Violent shake on mild / rougher roads roads especially at speeds around 50-60 mph . The dealer said it was because the tires had a default. Purchased new tires and the problem went away for a few months but now they are back. This is a real problem and someone will get seriously hurt or killed if not addressed by Ford. Very Very dangerous on the interstate.

The front end will violently shake on rougher roads especially at speeds around 50-60 mph. Has been referred as the death wobble by Ford. Happened mostly on 2006 to 2008 models, but have heard about it on 2011's. Mine is a 2012 and of course the dealership is saying they have never heard of it and blaming tire balance. It is bullshit and Ford will not admit there is a problem. Dealer is taking care of me at there cost. Hopefully it fixes it, because it is very dangerous. I will not let my wife or kids drive this piece of sh*t until I know it is safe. I'm waiting for it to do it again.

Problem is still not fixed happens when my tires get 40% worn. Class action suit needs to happen before this kills someone.
