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…

When driving at 40mph and above, the pickup sometimes goes into a violent steering shake or "death wobble" as i've seen it refered to. A quick internet search reveals that this is a common problem among ford superduty pickups, and ford apparently has no remedy for the problem.

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.

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.

This problem start in 12/2018. When driving on the highway, the vehicle will all of a sudden start shaking uncontrollable. The only way to rectify the problem is to slow down and pullover in the breakdown lane and stop. This option is sometimes not available and the situation is extremely dangerous. After spending a great deal of money this problem has not been fixed. Over the last several months, this situation has…

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…

Death wobble, safety issues, lost braking and limited steering at 65 mph.. So far ford dealer in freeport il. Told me the only thing i can do is trade it in. Ford would not offer any fix for the problem. Truck has had no modification or any changes in configuration. So far i have changed two sets of brakes, two sets of tires and over 2k in steering links and rod along with steering stabilizer.

Violent front end shake wobble. Any bump in the road causes the front end to shake violently. Have tried everything to fix with no change.
