2019 f-250 4x4 "death wobble" at 4,400 miles. I noticed on back roads at 45-55 mph front-end left acting like it was loose on steering, but i don't drive it much. Took a trip and several times (10+) at 65-70 front would wobble a little when hitting small uneven pavement. One time it went into the death wobble and had to do an emergency stop into the median because it was shaking itself apart. Shook so hard the water…

This was almost 10 days ago on a saturday. I took it to the dealership on the following monday.…

I braked hard while surrounded by other vehicles and was able to pull over to the shoulder without a collision. I…

While operating vehicle under normal conditions, between 25 and 65 mph, the steering wheel will jerk and shake violently when crossing uneven pavement surfaces, such as expansion joints for bridges or overpasses, or potholes. The problem is noticeable on highways and side streets, and both straight and curved sections of road. On multiple occasions the only way to stop the shaking was to slow down below 20 mph, or…

Truck front end shakes violently when hitting an irregular road surface or expansion joint driving at highway speeds - the only remedy is to abruptly brake to speeds around 20 mph to stop the "wobble" and resume driving - this presents a highly dangerous condition due to having to brake so abruptly and potentially cause a rear end collision for other cars.

The truck has the "death wobble". Driving 55 or above is dangerous if you hit a bump, the truck starts to violently shake and must be brought to a complete stop in order to regain control.

We were driving down the highway doing roughly 70-75 mph and hit a small bump in the road (almost like a double groove in the pavement). Immediately after we hit the bump, the entire truck began to shake violently almost to the point that it felt as if it was "floating" on the road. The first time it happened we thought we had blown a tire, so we reduced our speed and moved to the shoulder of the road. As it turns…
