Terrible shaking when cruising at certain speeds. I mainly notice the shaking around 45 mph, and again around 60 mph. I am able to control the shaking by either accelerating to around 70 mph, or braking to below 40 mph. The shaking is so bad sometimes that I feel like I will lose control of the vehicle if I don't speed up or slow down to make the shaking stop. It doesn't matter what type of street I am on as long as I am going fast or slow enough to cause the steering wheel and vehicle to shake uncontrollably.

At 70mph, on the interstate, we went over some grooves in the pavement. The truck began shaking so violently that my husband couldn't steer. He rapidly decelerated, and we were able to pull over. We were convinced that we had had multiple tires blow out. There were no other vehicles on the road at that time of the morning, or I don't know what would have happened. I normally haul a gooseneck trailer with horses, so thankful this wasn't the case this time.

My truck has 56000 on it and you cannot hold it on the road. I have had the steering looked at and they cannot find whats wrong. This is a very common issue with Ford superduty and there are several lawsuits filed with no recalls.

Death wobble! the know problem Ford has with their Super Duty truck but won't fix! I am a 56 year old woman and was driving on the expressway with my daughter when the death wobble happen. My steering wheels started shaking so hard I thought all 6 of my tires had blown. I had no control over my vehicle and than god there was no other cars near me. It is just getting worse now. I hit any little bumps on even the side road and the death wobble happens again. Called my Ford deal and they say no know fix for it. I can bring it in and they can try to replace the staring tracking bar. But don't know if that will fix it. Ford needs to be held responsible and pay for the fix! I am afraid to drive my own vehicle!

Extremely violent shaking of steering wheel and truck. Also known as the death wobble. This happens at highway speeds and is in predictable when it will do it.

- Mertztown, PA, USA

While traveling highway speeds (60mph-80mph), steering and truck start shaking violently (death wobble) until slowing to ~20mph. Shaking is triggered instantaneously after driving over a depression-type bump while in a left hand curve. Problem is most likely castor alignment needing adjusting (see Ford tsb 18-2268) or, less likely, steering linkage damper.

I started my truck and started down my driveway. The steering wheel was very hard to turn so I attempted to stop and the power brakes were out as well and only had manual brakes so I had to pull the steering wheel hard to turn and press the brakes very hard to stop the truck. I stopped the truck, turned it off then back on and the steering wheel with a whine and the brakes worked but not fully. It felt like the ABS was attempting to kick in when pressing the brake pedal. I took the truck to the dealership and they said the power steering pump went out and needs replaced. The truck has 29, 618 miles.

While driving the vehicle it shakes violently causing loss of control of vehicle. This is also known as a death wobble.

While traveling freeway speed, hitting a bump on the road causes an uncontrollable shake in the front end and causes the truck to go towards the left, that only goes away after hitting the brakes and slowing down 10-15 mph. A representative from Ford calls it the "death wobble." I had the truck into Ford before the warranty expired and they replaced a steering stabilizer shock, but the problem never went away totally. Ford confirmed the problem, and diagnosed it as track bar ball joint worn, excessive play, shimmy shock worn. The dealer is aware of the defect in their trucks, but refused to take responsibility for it and said it's just because the parts were worn out. They didn't say anything about any parts being worn when they replaced the steering shock, less than 10000 miles before. Vehicle was unsafe to drive with the "death wobble." Ken garff Ford was willing to pay for the oem parts to be replaced, and now the death wobble is gone. However, Ford has known about this problem for 15 years and refuses to take responsibility for the defect.

I am experiencing a profound "death wobble" in the front end. When driving on the highway and going over uneven pavement, an uncontrollable death wobble occurs and the whole front end shakes violently (causing the tires to skip on the pavement surface-loosing traction) and this "rhythm" cannot be controlled until the speed is brought below 25 miles an hour. This is especially dangerous in a curve in the road. It would be easy to loose control and crash into something/someone! everything on my truck is factory stock. The tires are good and I have made no modifications to the suspension. The dealer acknowledges the problem and wants me to replace good parts at my expense which does not fix the problem. This seems like a definite design flaw. There are many aftermarket parts available that claim to fix the problem. I do not want to put them on because I don't want to give Ford a reason to blame the problem on the aftermarket parts. This seems to be happening to many other people and looks like a serious safety issue!

My Ford F-350 has experienced the death wobble at speeds from 50-75 mph, it's random and doesn't show any warning signs, it is extremely scary and unnerving to experience. Hitting the brakes makes it violently uncontrollable. My truck has been to the dealership twice for this repair. It has been returned to me in worse shape then before I took it in. I have done tons of research and have found this is a very common problem with all F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 trucks and there should be a recall issued! this death wobble is going to get someone killed it, if it hasn't already. I own 3 Ford Super Duty trucks so far 2 of them have experienced this uncontrollable situation and my 2019 F-550 is showing the same signs as my other 2 trucks before they actually death wobbled. Ford knows of this issue and so does the NHTSA. Please do research and an investigation so this can be taken care of for all Super Duty owners! or stay away from these trucks if you are a consumer. They have replaced my track bar, steering stabilizer shock and some sort of slugs which I have never heard of. So we will see when I get it back this time if it's any better.
