I experienced what I now have come to understand is called the death wobble. It was terrifying and I was going about 60 mph on an interstate that was under construction. I hit minor bumps and the whole truck began to wobble back-and-forth violently. it would not stop until I came down to about 15 miles an hour, after that steering felt loose. I thought I was going to die. The incident chewed up my tires with pock marks everywhere.

When driving (Once going downhill 6% grade, several times driving level on the freeway and once on a 45 MPH road with ruts), the front end began shaking violently to the point I was losing control of the vehicle until I slowed down. The vehicle would be available for inspection upon request. Safety was impacted by the loss of control resulting from the vehicle violently shaking. I took the truck to a mechanic and he could not see any problems. Other than my mechanic, no one has inspected the vehicle. There were no warning lamps, messages, or symptoms prior to the event. I have dash cam video of the event.

I have been experiencing what is known as the Death Wobble. The death wobble is a violent shaking that happens to the front end of many Ford F250 and F350 Super Duty trucks. It typically occurs at speeds over 50 miles per hour. It can also happen after going over bumps or grooves in the road. To stop the shaking, drivers must quickly slow way down or even stop completely. In addition to the shaking potentially causing the driver to lose control of the truck, slowing or having to stop on fast-moving highways also puts both truck occupants and other vehicles at risk. I have taken this Vehicle to NTB for repairs and even had new tires put on in the event that was the issue. They have replaced all the steering linkages, tie-rods, ball joints, etc dealing with steering to no avail. I have taken this pickup back into the repair shop on 10/24/2022 once again as this has made me have to stop on major freeways to get the wobble to stop. This is putting me and others in danger.

When I hit any kind of bump in the road, especially when you change lanes the truck shakes so violently you have to slow down to about 10 miles an hour to get it to stop. This has been happening for years & on a few occasions it almost caused an accident. On one occurrence it was so bad the truck shook me off of the highway. This is an ongoing issue, I have tried many repairs to try to alleviate this problem with no luck.

A common, but irregular violent shaking of the steering after I go over a bump in the road of come off an overpass. Sometimes it happens once in a week, sometimes it will happen 2 times in 2 miles. The problem doesn't occur under 45 MPH. It is so dangerous that I don't want anyone driving my truck except me, in case this happens again. Very scary. Very dangerous.

I was driving at 60 mph on an interstate flyover that was curving to the left and hit an expansion joint. The truck began to shake violently. I almost lost control and had to quickly slow down to around 30 mph before the shaking stopped.

Front suspension shakes violently when traveling above 50mph and striking any type of uneven road surface. Bumps, holes, groves, expansion joints, etc cause the front wheels to shake uncontrollably until the truck slows down to approximately 25mph.

If the truck hits bumps on the highway, on or off a bridge for example, the front wheels shake violently and I mean violently and has happened 40 plus times in 6 months. All front end parts are tight and all tie rods are new.shocks are new stabilizer shock has been replaced 3 times. Each time its replaced problem goes away, or seems to for a couple of weeks. It happens on the highway only, 60-70 mph. I travel some regular routes so I have learned where to try to avoid. Problem started at 92,000 miles. Truck now has 108,000 miles on it. I purchased the truck with 36,000 miles on it. I am scared to drive it but cannot afford anything else. Thanks

The contact owns a 2015 Ford F-250. While driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle struck a bump in the road and shook violently without warning. The vehicle was taken to all star Ford-kilgore (903-984-2006, located at 1615 us-259, longview, tx 75602) where it was diagnosed that the shocks and tires needed to be replaced. The tires and the shocks were replaced, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who confirmed the dealer's diagnosis. The vehicle was not repaired and the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was approximately 105,000.
