Me and my wife were driving down the highway 70-80 mph, and the truck began to wobble side to side, and I thought it was a flat tire. We slowed down to make sure everything was ok, and nothing was wrong. I started back on the highway, and about 10 minutes later we hit a bump going roughly 75 mph, and the truck again started wobbling, I felt like I had no control of the vehicle. I just purchased this truck with 18,862 miles on it, and currently there is 19,541 miles on the odometer. I am going to take it to the dealership because I still have the manufacture warranty on the vehicle, but I feel very intimidated to drive it, and my wife refuses to drive the truck after this incident. All I have been able to see is that this is a result of the Ford "death wobble". I do not know what components of the vehicle are causing this, but it is very frustrating to spend the amount of money that we did, only to find it being a possible death trap.

'death wobble' intense vibration and loss of control when I hit a bumps at highway speeds. The only way to stop it is to slow down to almost a complete stop

- Fort Worth, TX, USA

Driving at 45 mph and hit change in pavement from concrete to raised asphalt and front end/steering began to shake violently and did not stop until reached 20 mph. Has happened again 3 more times at speeds around 70 mph on paved 3 lane highway with no control until reaching speed of 20 mph extremely hard to control vehicle and very very dangerous truck has under 30,000 miles on it. In dealership service department currently waiting to pick it up to find out what parts they have replaced. This is a very dangerous problem that Ford needs to correct before people are hurt or killed

Driving down the highway at 70mph, I hit a rough patch on highway and suddenly the steering wheel started vibrating vigorously, whole truck was shaking and pulling to the left. I struggled to control it and began to slow down, at around 45-50mph the shaking stopped and regained control of the steering. Truck continue to have excessive shaking when hitting small bumps on highway. This happened on the day I picked up the used truck from the dealership as I was driving home, truck approximately 37,700 miles. The next day on my way to work, I hit a small bump on the highway going 72mph and steering wheel began vibrating, but was not a vigorous as day prior.

I believe I have experienced the known 'death wobble'. when going 65 mph or more and hit a bump with a turn I'd lose control and my truck would feel like my front tires had blown or shocks had failed. I'd slow down and pull over and the truck looked fine. At lower speeds it does not seem to happen. I've experienced it twice now. All Ford has said is I need a new steering stabilizer, that is on back order. They claim that will ' fix ' the problem.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-250. The contact stated that while the vehicle was driven at highway speeds, the vehicle went over a bump on the roadway and the steering wheel started to shake violently and uncontrollably. The vehicle was taken to lamarque Ford located at 3101 williams boulevard, kenner, la 70065, (504)-443-2500 for inspection. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and informed of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 41,000.

My vehicle experienced three "death wobble" occurrences. All within a few hundred miles of each other. Starting at around 22,000 miles.(November 2019) extreme steering wheel oscillation and uncontrollable lane shifts. These occurred after hitting a pot hole or a seam in the road. All of my occurrences were at highway speed. The only remedy is to immediately brake hard and attempt to move to the shoulder. I contacted my dealer and the truck was given a new steering stabilizer per the most current tsb. I paid to have the truck re-aligned. (alignment was out due to the "death wobble" jarring the front end so hard) 4000 miles after this service, I started to experience "bump steer", humps in the road transfer to the steering wheel excessively. The truck is also pulling hard to the right. Now at 8000 miles past the service the "bump steer" is even worse. There is noticeable play in the steering wheel and you must work to keep the truck in your lane. Having someone move the steering wheel while visually inspecting the steering components showed play in multiple linkages. Tie rod ends and track bar heim joint both are worn out at less than 31,000 miles. Unacceptable, and not safe. The steering stabilizer is a band-aide to push me out of my bumper to bumper warranty. It is on the edge of failing and sending the truck back into more "death wobble". this truck has only been serviced by Ford. All recommended maintenance has been performed. Including tire rotations. It is my opinion that steering components fail prematurely. The new steering stabilizer has not remedied the problem with my truck. It will be going back to the dealer for another round of service. It will need at a minimum a new track bar, tie rod ends and an alignment. Ill be filing a reimbursement claim directly with Ford if I am asked to pay for the alignment again this round.

1/31/2020 driving approx 65 mph on interstate I hit a small undulation and the front of my vehicle began to oscillate violently. It was almost impossible to maintain grip on wheel. I was unable to immediately slow or pull over due to traffic and guard rails. I was in the process of making a right merge to another interstate and this was simply impossible. After clearing the guard rail I was able to ease to shoulder and slow to approx 20 mph. This stopped the violent shaking and I regained control. Less than 1/2 mi later I hit another normal undulation at approx 50 mph and same thing occurred, I was traveling in a straight line and slowed to 25 mph in center lane of interstate to regain control. I immediately took to the Ford dealership which denied ever hearing of anything like this, however conducting my own research this was clearly the "death wobble". this is a new vehicle w/ low milage and w/O exception every non Ford specialist I have spoken with is very familiar with this. This is clearly a design flaw and if it hasn't already, will result in serious if not fatal accident. Given all the info available on the web including a class action suit, Ford's denial is simply a lie. I have 3 children and this truck is my primary source of transportation, after experiencing the "death wobble" no parent of sound mind would ever put children in this vehicle w/O this issue being certifiably resolved. My vehicle has no after mkt parts and and very low milage. I am still well with my warranty

"death wobble" over the past 5 months (it is now 1/30/2020) the entire front end of the vehicle shakes violently and uncontrollably at a high rate of speed, typically highway speeds, ranging anywhere from 50-80 mph. Although, it has happened at a speed of about 40-45. It happens out of nowhere with no apparent provocation, I.e., hitting a pothole, turning, hitting the brakes, etc. It usually happens when driving in a straight line and nothing seems to make it stop. I've tried hitting the brakes, slamming the brakes, continuing to hold my speed steady, accelerating slightly, and praying to god to make it stop. Nothing works, it just eventually stops but not before traffic clears all around me. It is noticeable from outside the vehicle as I have seen drivers hit the brakes and fall back in traffic around me. The violent shaking makes it difficult to keep the vehicle steady or in my lane of traffic. The violent shaking makes the vehicle bounce all over the road. It makes it impossible to hold the steering wheel steady or straight. It is terrifying and unnerving. I believe it is going to kill me or someone else. I haul trailers with heavy equipment almost daily. Many times I am on the highway or on city streets. If it continues to happen, the damage will be costly and may kill innocent people, including myself. I am afraid to think what will happen if these unexpected, violent shakes happen while I am hauling heavy equipment.

While driving on a congested four lane interstate highway I experienced a steering malfunction that was horrifying. I purchased my 2019 F250 new in early November 2018. There have been no modifications to the original equipment. The truck had approximately 21000 miles at the time of the first event which occurred on Wednesday, Jan. 29, 2020. As previously stated, I was driving in the far left lane of a congested interstate highway in the metropolitan St.louis Missouri area. I was driving under the posted speed limit due to the volume of vehicles on the road at that time. I was in the far left lane due having no plans to exit the interstate for many miles and to avoid all of the vehicles switching lanes to exit the interstate. The condition of the pavement did not raise any obvious concerns but we have had some freeze/thaw weather this winter season. I would characterize/associate the onset of the event with a moderate bump in the pavement, possibly a raised joint from the recent freeze/thaw weather conditions. The contact with the pavement defect initiated a steering bump to the left towards a concrete retaining wall at which time I responded by increasing my grip on the steering wheel more firmly to bring the vehicle back to the center of the far left lane in which I had been travelling. The bump steering event spontaneously progressed to a violent front end wobble that was very intimidating to myself and my adult son who was riding in the front passenger seat. The wobble appeared to be associated with the front left side wheel but the entire front end was oscillating extremely violently. I was able to apply the right turn signal and navigate through the three congested lanes of traffic onto the shoulder and then an exit ramp at which time the event ceased once the vehicle slowed significantly prior to a stop. I experienced a second similar event sat, 2/02/20.

In motion on highway speed of 60-65 mph. Smooth surface. Experienced violent, uncontrollable shaking. Slowed speed and attempted to pull over. Shaking stopped after 1/2 to 3/4 of a mile. This is the 3rd occurrence in the past 30 days. First time occurred after hitting bump in the road. Next 2 occurrences began without warning. This most recent one that occurred on 1/27/2020 at 7:00 pm was the longest and most dangerous episode yet. Have already contacted the dealer and they called it the 'death wobble' and ordered parts.
