The rear cab glass completely shattered due to the defrost heating element shorting out because it had broken and falling off of middle sliding window, started to melt carpeting behind the seat and immediately burst the entire rear glass.

We started to have issues with our back up camera sporadically working, images appearing fuzzy and now the camera has gone completely blank - blue screen. We use this pickup truck to plow in the winter and the camera is important for that. Not having a working back up camera is a safety hazard under normal conditions as well. The issue is that Ford has a recall on "certain" 2019 F-350 trucks with back up camera issues WHICH ARE THE EXACT SAME ISSUES that are happening with our back up camera. This can not be a coincidence. I have called the Ford recall line and spoke to a representative who told me he would document my issue and forward the call information on to his manager. He told me to report it to the NHTSA as well. This is absolutely the same issue and we are not happy that they won't do right by us and take care of this issue.

Panoramic sunroof suddenly cracks. Contacted Ford dealership and they told me to go through my insurance. I read up on forums on this issue and it is happening to Ford owners with sunroofs.

As well as rear camera failure I have the front camera failure. Which is worse cannot see out of the front camera really at all. Looks like a white screen. Safety for others as well as myself are at risk on a daily basis. You cannot see if there's small children or objects in front of your vehicle when you're leaving. Dealership has looked at it. This camera actually started to fail before the rear backup camera. This is a very serious problem and needs to be fixed by Ford immediately a recall needs issued it's a matter of time before someone is killed or a child is killed.

The trailer brake controller randomly says trailer disconnected and will not apply the trailer brakes, but you can manually operate the brakes from the controller and they work fine, I have replaced every thing on the trailer brakes, wires,7pin plug, and I keep getting the same fault randomly( trailer disconnected). Ford tells me the unit is fine, Well it is not, I have pulled the trailer with a chevy and a dodge and the brakes work as they should. It happens everything I use it and after doing a Google search, seems there many others with the same problem

Traveling at 60-65 mile per hour on interstate freeway, hit a group of small potholes with left wheels. Truck shook as you would expect at first, then began to shake increasingly more violently in the front end. The shaking increased till the front end was bouncing up and down and shaking left to right. The steering wheel shook left and right. I took my foot off the accelerator and coasted to the shoulder and stopped. My passenger's and my safety were put at risk because the truck was difficult to control and slowing down did not bring the situation under control until we got down to about 20 mph. Fortunately we were in the right lane, so we had quick access to the shoulder. I don't know what component failed, but this behaved as if the steering were repeatedly over-correcting for what it saw as a potential spin-out in alternating direction. After the incident the front tires showed wear marks slightly up the sidewalls (about 1 inch) that suggested they had skidded sideways several times. All tires were properly inflated at the time: 61 pounds front, 80 pounds rear. There were no warning lamps or alerts before or after the incident. The vehicle has not yet been inspected by the dealer. No police or insurance representatives were notified since there was not an accident or injuries.

While driving on the two lane freeway at approximately 65mph in the right lane, a lane change to the left lane was initiated as a slower moving truck was in the right lane. Following the lane change to the left lane, the front left tire hit the pavement recess accommodating the yellow reflector embedded in the pavement, which was on the inside of the fog line. Upon impact with the reflector recess the vehicle front end and steering wheel began to shake violently. The steering wheel shook side-to-side so violently that it shook the drivers hands, arms, shoulders and head back and forth so quickly and violently that the drivers vision was impaired; the driver could see but all objects were blurred due to the shaking. Fortunately the left shoulder was paved and an area to the left of the shoulder was also paved (but not maintained perhaps a construction related turn around or cross over). Steering was severely impaired. With great difficulty the vehicle was steered off of the left lane onto the shoulder and then stopped on the additional paved area to the left of the paved shoulder. The violent vehicle and steering shaking subsided ONLY following stopping the vehicle. Had this incident occurred in heavy traffic, on a two lane road or a road without shoulders the outcome may well have ended in loss of control of the vehicle. Ford acknowledges that its Super Duty 4x4 vehicle experience "Death Wobble"; a violent shaking of the front end and steering. This incident was a "Death Wobble" incident: initiated by a bump encountered by one front wheel, violent shaking of the steering and front end, loss of steering control, continued shaking until stopped. Ford has offered to repair, but there are no parts available. This vehicle defect must be considered for recall and immediate long term repair. The vehicle in this incident was a 2019 Ford F350 Super Duty with approximately 38,000 miles. Part wear is unlikely with such a low-mileage vehicle, as acknowledged by Ford.

While driving down the road we got the death wobble after hitting a bump in the road. The truck violently shook and was unable to steal until the truck stopped. After that the truck was drivable again until it happens again.

My 2019 F350 has what google and others are calling the death wobble. The entire truck in under full warranty plus bumper to bumper additional coverage. When driving at hwy speed (and interstate) and you drive over bumps, potholes, or railroad tracks the vehicle starts shaking so bad that you can not steer or even stay in your lane. The shaking does not stop until you come to a complete stop. It doesn't happen for all railroad crossing, but those that are rutted.

Multiple times after hitting a small bump at anywhere between 35-60 mph the steering wheel locks and the entire truck shakes violently. It will continue doing this until I stop the vehicle completely. Once it started doing it again as I accelerated after it had stopped. It seems to get worse. I-??ve read it is a mechanical fault and causes -??Ford death rattle-??. It is very dangerous and I have almost lost control of the vehicle.

lost control of the front steering. Was going around a curve on a bridge when suddenly the vehicle started to shake which caused me to lose control of the steering wheel. I came very close to hitting the side of the bridge. it was a good thing I was in a single lane as the pickup was going from side to side. This really freaked out my wife as well as me. She does not want to ride in this very expensive truck again. I am taking in the vehicle 5/23/2022 to have it looked at. Guess at this point hopefully they can tell me what is wrong. Nothing prepared me for what was about to happen. I am very upset at ford and the dealership for not informing about this DEATH WOBBLE problem

It is a common problem that the dual heat in Fords has issues. My heat has stopped working, and I can make it work by turning one side up and one side down, but it still doesn-??t heat properly. This has happened to me with other year Ford vehicles, so it-??s a problem they apparently aren-??t looking to fix. Problem today is that I drove through freezing rain, passenger side iced over, driver side was barely clearing, obvious safety issue.

driving on 2 lane state road ran over a small rough area the truck started shaking badly happened so fast I was in oncoming traffic. I over corrected and went to the other side of road, I stopped the truck. I have been driving for 40 years and never been so shaken. I'm a disabled vet with over 20 years of service to our country. I want to enjoy life by not having a truck manufacturer causing my death or someone elses. I just bought this truck, and now I'm afraid to drive it. thanks truck manufacturer!

Hit a pot hole, at 65 mph with the front wheel. The hole truck started shacking violently, and I about loss control. I stood on the brakes, and vibrated into the emergency lane. The whole truck stopped shacking below 45 mph. And was fine coming back up to speed, until I hit another pot hole. Please watch YouTube ford death wobble, ford states there is no problem.
