Truck has death wobble.

- Sarasota, FL, USA

Extreame front-end vibration ("aka" death-wobble as described for other F250 and F350 pickups on Google). Driving 60mph on 65mph limit highway. Small bump on road. Truck starts severe vibrations from the front end. No steering control. Slight drift into left lane. Another car in the lane left to me had to break to avoid me. Vibration would not stop until I applied brakes and the truck speed was 30mph. Both the loss of steering, and the necessary reduction in speed was extreamly dangerous. Upon searching the internet it appears this is a common problem with Ford F250 and F350 trucks that neither the NHTSA nor Ford has/is addressing.

While traveling to and from New Orleans from New Jersey I had 12 incidents of the Ford Death Wobble. The first time I was traveling at 70 mile per hour when I hit a bump in the road and the wobble started. I was able to slow to about 30 miles per hour and the wobble stopped. Over the 2500 miles traveled I experienced this wobble at speeds as slow as 55 miles per hour. I will be taking my vehicle to the Ford dealer I purchased it from to see if they can help. Right now I am afraid to drive faster that 55 mile per hours for fear I my hit some kind of bump that will start this wobble and cause me to loose control of my truck.

"Death Wobble"- At a speed of run 50 miles per hour. Going around the curve my steering will begin to shake violently. Also a handful of other times it shook in the same way after hitting a bump in the road. Once I slowed down it corrected itself.

The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the fuse box and wiring harness needed to be replaced. The vehicle remained with the independent mechanic awaiting the repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to file a complaint with the NHTSA Hotline. The approximate failure mileage was 164,000.

Repeated -??death wobble-?? where the steering components oscillate rapidly left and right causing a lack of steering control. One repair attempted. Later occurrence and another repair. A third event, this time while pulling a 14,000 pound 5th wheel trailer. At about 63 mph the wobble started. I braked, the truck pulled left and I could not maintain my lane. An 18-wheeler behind me moved to the left lane due to my braking and we almost collided due to my not being able to steer. I did get it under control to get back in my lane and avoid the collision. This has been worked on by two different dealers and is about to be looked at again by the original dealer. Almost every front-end component has already been replaced.

My truck starting shaking really bad while driving after 45 miles per hour. I went to the repair shop today and they told me it was the death wobble. Could have lost control of truck as it was very terrifying.

- Bloomington, IL, USA

Steering - my steering wheel kept becoming really loose that it felt like it was going to fall off. I have had it fixed at FORD twice. It was difficult to drive or want to turn as it was extremely wobbly making me feel at any moment I can lose control. This also caused my Lane Keeping Assistance to fail. The first time FORD tightened the steering wheel but the same problem came back then parts were actually replaced.

- Happy Valley, OR, USA

Death wobble. The truck shakes very bad that it is unsafe to drive and causes a threat to other motorists. You literally have to reduce the speed of your truck to about 20 miles per hour to stop it when you on a freeway or not when it starts shaking.

- Little Elm, TX, USA

While travelling down the highway at approximately 65mph, came in contact with a rough patch of road, causing the front suspension and steering to shake violently, nearly resulting in a loss of control. This persisted for approximately 30-60 secs, until slowing vehicle down to about 50mph. This is the second time this has happened, within the past 3 months. The vehicle has all new tires, and is serviced and maintained regularly.

On 3 occasions since I bought the pu new on July 24th, 2020 I experienced what the Ford dealer now calls death wobble. The first time happened on Sept 2nd while driving down hill pulling my trailer at about 50mph. When I stepped on the brake the steering wheel and brake pedal started to shake violently. I had little control until my speed dropped. I took the pu to the dealer Sept 16th. They said they could find no problem and stated if their agent could not experience the problem while driving the pu they could not fix it. On the second time I was driving the pu empty at highway speed and again while braking the steering and brakes shook violently. Up to this point I was thinking the brakes were the problem. I started tracking the brake temperature which showed a large variety of temps for similar driving conditions. I provided the numbers to the dealer. I was told a few days later on Oct 29th that the temps were normal and my driving style needed to be adjusted for a vehicle of this type. On the third time Nov 15th I was again pulling the trailer but this time at 40mph in wet and snowy conditions when I stepped on the brake I experienced the shaking to the point of losing control. When I took the pu to the dealer with just 8000 miles on the truck they again said they could do nothing without their agent seeing the problem themselves. But this time on the paperwork they described the problem as 'death wobble'. I checked the NHTSA site finding several complaints similar to mine. The internet is also loaded with complaints and possible fixes since Ford won't or can't fix the problem. Ford clearly knows this problem exists because they have put a name to the problem but they are doing nothing on my pu (and many others) to fix the problem.

Brought this truck on November 5,2020. It is a Ford F-350 Super Duty dually. On November 25,2020 the power steering went out couldn't steer truck then within a few mins. Lost the brakes on the truck. Had to hold brakes to floor to get truck stopped beside of road. Look like lost fluid from power steering. Was a good thing on a two lane road with little traffic. Was about to get on interstate highway where this would have been bad with all that traffic and going speed limit. Why would brakes go out if power steering quit?

Steering returnabilty or "return to center" is impeded by electric power steering assist. According to Ford the new electric over hydraulic system installed on some Super Duty trucks assists the driver during cross wind or heavy road crown situations. But when there is no wind or road crown the system continues to "assist" and holds the steering column from immediately returning to center. This vehicle is not equipped with a "lane keeping' or "auto steer" system. Under certain conditions the vehicle requires constant left and right input to maintain lane.when driving between 30 mph and 50 mph the vehicle will continue to navigate turns after the steering wheel is released. This constant input is very fatiguing and when road conditions are slippery, icy or rough maintaining lane is extremely difficult at times.
