When in motion at highway speeds (60mph +) my truck will violently shake and wobble if a small bump is hit. It looses steering control and is not even close to safe. You have to come to a stop to get the shaking and out of control wobble to stop.

I have experienced the ford death wobble on my 1997 f350 and my 2014 f250. At 45 mph plus, hitting sometimes imperceptible bumps can cause the suspension and steering to develop a very violent vibration. I almost lose control and have to brake very hard to get it to stop. I am afraid i am going to crash or be hit from behind when braking. Ford made some suspension repairs under my extended warranty, but these…

While vehicle is in motion, at approximately 60 mph vehicle begins to wobble violently. Truck is virtually uncontrollable until speed is reduced significantly. A quick google search identifies the problem as a worn out drag link. It also seems to be a common problem on many years of this vehicle.

Front end death wobble. New tie rods- stabilizer-shocks tires and still does it when hitting bridge end dam- chug hole-bump in road or just rough road. What is the cure? Chevy. Or gmc does not have this problem.

When driving at highway speeds and hit a bump in road or going over a bridge and driving over the bridge joints the front wheels/suspension go into an almost uncontrollable bounce/wobble. Best way i can describe the issues is as if your tires were over inflated and the shock absorbers were missing. Vehicle has 48,000 miles and has been doing this occasionally for approximately the last 20,000 miles. This is a 2nd…

Death wobble started at higher speed. Has progressively gotten worse. Everything is tight in the front end. Changed ball joints both wheel bearings track bar and bushing and steering dampener and nothing has helped. Happened on 2 sets of tires.

My ford truck typically experiences the death wobble when traveling more than 50 mph and at least one of the tires hits a groove or bump in the road. The only way i know to control the violent shaking is by quickly reducing speed, which is very dangerous in traffic

At high speeds hitting pot holes or bridge decks, front end wobbles uncontrollably. It's referred to as (death wobble) need to hit the brakes hard to stop it. Very dangerous. Ford knows about the problem and is turning a blind eye.crashing on the freeway at those speeds could be catastrophic. Some vehicles have as little as 20000 miles on them, mine has 51000. Just put new tires,front shots and steering stabilizer…

My truck is at the dealership for the 3rd time for having the 'death wobble'. First time they replaced ball joints. Second time they replaced a bar and ball joints.

When the truck hits a bridge expansion joint or a pot hole it's shakes violently losing control and pulls the steering wheel out of your hands. The dealership claims there is no problem and has never heard of such a thing.
