- Severance, CO, USA

The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-350. While driving approximately 50 mph, the front end of the vehicle suddenly shook and vibrated violently. The front wheels wobbled and the steering wheel vibrated after driving over a bump. The contact indicated that the failure occurred on multiple occasions while driving over 30 mph. The vehicle was taken to opelika Ford (801 columbus pkwy, opelika, al) and town and country Ford (1101 martin St. N, pell city, al) where it was diagnosed that the steering track bar and steering bushings were faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was informed that the replacement parts were also not defective. The manufacturer was notified and provided case number: Cas25139941.

Driving on dry pavement, approximately 40mph, straight smooth road. I drove over an expansion joint in the pavement, the steering began to wobble violently which made my vehicle leave the pavement onto the opposite side of the road onto an easement. I seemed to have experienced the "Ford deat"H wobble, I contacted the dealership, they referred to what I experienced as a known problem referred to as "death wobble". if a vehicle would hav been coming in the opposite direction, there would have been an accident and could have resulted in death at the speed I was traveling. The truck only has ~15000 miles on it. I was told that there is an apparent tsb on this issue and parts are on national backorder with no idea when the parts will be available. This is a very serious safety issue.

At approximately 14,000 miles the vehicle developed a severe vibration in the steering when going over even a small bump on the freeway at freeway speed. The vibration continued to get progressively worse until the vehicle was no longer safe to drive. The vehicle was taken to the dealer that sold us the truck. The dealer service department had to replace a number of steering components in the front end and indicated that a tire problem caused the failure. The tires, wheels and all steering components were oem and no modifications had been made to the vehicle steering or suspension system when the issue occurred. The dealer indicated that the Goodyear tires installed at the factory were the cause of the problem and recommended installing Michelin tires to alleviate any future issues. The steering was repaired and the tires replaced by the dealer. Since those repairs another similar vehicle in our fleet that came with oem Michelin tires and has under 10,000 miles has started to develop the same issue. The dealer has indicated that this may be a problem with F350 models but continues to blame Goodyear for the problem and no other solutions to fix the issue have been indicated.

During speeds 50 mph or above the front of truck will shake violently losing control of steer and breaking. It only takes the edge of a cement transition between regular road and bridge or some basic rough spots to start the violent shaking. During speeds between 35 and 50 after driving over rough road front will shimmy and smoothout. I have had 3 near misses with other vehicles due to the extreme and violent shaking. Yesterday was a near miss with a semi-truck, and did not gain control until after crossing over three lanes of I-435 traffic outside of Kansas City. I went by Ford today, and they have had many complaints for same reason. This is an extreme safety issue. I should have been notified that this model of truck is developing drivability issues that can kill.

When driving 55 mph, I approached a bridge which was a slight elevation in roadway, I was pulling a horse trailer which was a goose neck. When I went over the change in elevation the truck's front end shook violently, the steering wheel shook so hard it was hard to hold onto, I slowed down the truck to 10 mph and the shaking went down. This was extremely scarey and dangerous, luckily no one was behind me on the highway and the weather was not bad. This truck only has 20,000 miles on it. I really wish there was a recall regarding this truck, I want to trade it in at this point, it's too scarey to drive.

Truck has a re-ococcuring death shake / wobble that happens when you hit bumps at highway speed (60 mph plus). Only way to regain control is to abruptly decelerate the vehicle to around 20 mph. Has now happened multiple times and it's getting woemaw. It's to a point where I no longer allow my wife and kids to be in the vehicle. These trucks should not be on the road as it's a known issue.

At approximately 60mph hit rough spot in road and truck started 'death wobble'! had to brake hard to less than 20mph to get truck to stop. This happened first with the truck having only 2830 miles on it. Next time about 100 miles later happened at 75mph and I thought I was going to loose control. Called dealership and was told it would be 2-3 weeks before they would have parts and was also told to not expect the new parts to fix the truck. I was told prior to purchasing the truck that the issues had been fixed prior to my purchase since the truck was built in September 2019. I depend on my vehicles to make my living, can't do that with them in the shop with a unknown fix. Ford needs to stop being allowed to sell this trucks until there is a proven fix!! how many people will be injured or killed do you this problem before action is taken. Dealer asked me what I wanted to do after I complained about the 2-3 week delay on even being able to work in the truck. I said you knew these trucks still had the problem so just refund my money and I'll go down the road. Was laughed at and said that wouldn't happen. Again bought the truck October 10, 2019 and it now has 3,120 miles on it. This needs to be stopped.

- Cisco, TX, USA

Truck has 21750 miles on it and is experiencing the known symptom of Ford Super Duty known as the "death wobble". as I was entering the ramp to the freeway, I hit a bump in the road and the vehicle started shaking violently causing me to almost lose control. I had to slow down and move to the shoulder and stop the vehicle to seize the shaking. Other vehicles were on the road and this causes a huge safety concern.

On Dec 2, 2019 I was driving my 2019 Ford F-350 (with 15,000mi) on insterstate 505 at approximately 65-70mph while overtaking a tractor-trailer. With no obvious cause, the front wheels / steering of the vehicle began shaking uncontrollably. I assumed there was some sort of major wheel damage or blowout of a tire and tried to pull over. The vehicle was very hard to steer and I did not have adequate speed to get safely past the semi, so I slowed down in the fast lane and pulled to the right behind the semi. Once stopped I inspected the vehicle and was surprised to find no obvious damage. I resumed driving without any apparent issue. About 45mi further down the road the exact same issue happened again at 65mph. This time there were no vehicles nearby on the highway so I slowed below 30mph and the vibration stopped. I accelerated back to 65mph without the vibration issue and continued my trip home. The intensity of these vibrations is very extreme and the vehicle is almost uncontrollable when they are happenening. There is no way to avoid or anticipate that they will happen, and the only remedy is to slow or stop the vehicle immediately, which is extremely dangerous to do in a freeway environment when the steering is barely working. My vehicle is using original, unmodified stock tires, wheels, and suspension components and is ovf relatively low mileage (15,000mi).

When crossing over bumps in the road at speeds above 45 mph the steering wheel shakes. Sometimes it's slight and other times it's severe.

My wife and I were headed to costco and were driving through West chester Ohio. We went over a set of railroad tracks on princeton glendale rd. Just before port union rd. Once we went over the tracks the front of the truck began to jump and shake uncontrollably. It was very scary. We had no idea what was going on. The truck wobbled side to side for a good distance after we went over the tracks. The wobbling was felt extremely strong in the front end and carried through the cab of the truck. It only subsided after slowing the truck down by letting off the accelerator and letting it coast to about 25 mph. Thank goodness we weren't on the highway or worse yet, that we weren't towing anything. We bought this truck to tow a large fifth wheel camper. If this were to happen while towing this on the highway we would probably lose control and crash. That would be catastrophic to say the least. I have just under 4,000 miles on my new truck and this is the second time this has happened. The first time was minimal. So minimal that we wrote it off after it happened. But, it too happened after going over a set of railroad tracks on a rural road just outside of seven mile Ohio. It was nothing like what happened this weekend. Since this happened I took it upon myself to look to the internet for more info. It seems this is a national problem with the Super Duty trucks. There is a plethora of complaints of this exact same thing. My fear is contacting my local sales dealership and getting the standard jargon. Having the mechanic take it for a test drive and then call me after I drop it off to them for three days and them tell me that nothing occurred and nothing appears broken. Like I said earlier, I have almost 4,000 miles on the truck and it has happened twice.

Going straight at 55 mph the steering wheel and front of the truck started shaking, wobbling and loss of control. I had no control of the vehicle as I ran off of the road into the mud on a county blacktop road. This is the second time this has happened.

If the vehicle hits a bump addy sleds above 45 miles per hour, the steering wheel shakes uncontrollably. I have multiple videos of multiple instances, too large to upload here.

- Clovis, NM, USA

Traveling at approximately 50-55 mph on a curved 2 lane highway I hit a small bump in the road. This caused the front of the vehicle and steering wheel to shake wildly and almost caused a collision with the vehicles behind me. I was only able to get it to stop shaking by coming to an almost complete stop in the middle of a narrow 2 lane mountain highway. As I was coming to a stop I had very little control over the vehicle and actually crossed the center line and went several feet into the oncoming lane.

When driving on the interstate at 75 mph I hit a small bump in the road while changing lanes. The entire truck began shaking violently. The steering wheel was shaking so violently that I had a difficult time controlling the vehicle while I returned to the right lane and reduced speed. The shaking stopped when the speed was reduced to 30 mph. Twenty minutes later while traveling on the interstate I hit an expansion joint at 65 mph and the violent shaking returned. I reduced speed and the shaking stopped at 30 mph.

My 2019 Ford F-350 has approximately 16,300 miles on it. On Friday, November 8, 2019, I was driving at highway speed (approximately 65 mph) westbound on interstate 10 near san antonio, tx around mile marker 588 shortly after noon. I was in the left lane. I hit a small, but relatively deep pothole in my lane, which caused a jolt to the vehicle. What followed next is difficult to describe as I have never experienced anything like it in over 40 years of driving. The front end of the vehicle started to shake and wobble violently. I initially thought both of the front steer tires had experienced a blowout simultaneously as the shaking was occurring on both front tires and the front suspension. The vehicle was very difficult to control. I was able to decelerate and move to the right shoulder. At some point during my deceleration, perhaps around 25 mph, I was able to regain control of the vehicle and the shaking stopped. I exited and inspected the vehicle, but could see no damage to either tire, nor any indication of damage to the tie rods, shocks or other components of the front suspension. I was able to resume driving and later conducted a more thorough inspection, again finding no apparent damage or cause for the violent shaking and wobbling I had experienced. I am terrified that this will occur again. In different circumstances, this could easily result in loss of control of the vehicle, with very bad consequences. I occasionally pull fifth wheel and goose neck trailers with this vehicle, which is why I purchased it. If this occurred while pulling a load, the consequences could be terrible.
