EXPERIENCING JUMPY STEERING, ESPECIALLY ON UNEVEN OR ROUGH ROADS. WENT INTO A FULL AND DANGEROUS DEATH WOBBLE SITUATION TWICE NOW. BEEN THIS WAY SINCE NEW. CURRENTLY HAVE 10,000 MILES. BEEN BACK TO SEWER TWICE NOW AND THEY ARE DENYING THE ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING AROUND A SLOW RADIUS IN THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 50MPH I HIT A ROUGH SPOT IN THE ROAD THAT CAUSED VIOLENT SHAKING OF THE STEERING WHEEL, WHICH MOST REFER TO AS "DEATH WOBLE". THIS CAUSED THE FRONT END TO LOOSE TRACTION AND SCOOT ACROSS THE ROAD. TO OVERCOME IT I HAD TO SIGNIFICANTLY SLOW DOWN MY RATE OF SPEED. MY CURRENTLY HAS 2857 MILES ON IT. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO LESSER AMOUNTS PREVIOUSLY.

TRUCK HAS THE DEATH WOBBLE GOES INTO A VIOLENT SHAKE VERY RANDOMLY WITH NO WARNING HAVE TO APPLY HEAVY BRAKES TO REGAIN CONTROL. STEERING WHEEL SHAKES VERY BAD AND THE WHOLE FRONT END FEELS LIKE IT'S GOING TO COME APART. TRUCK IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE.

IN DEC OF 2018 THE FORD F250 EXHIBITED THE "DEATH WOBBLE" WHICH HAPPENS WHEN GOING STRAIGHT DOWN THE ONRAMP ENTERING HIGHWAY OVER AN EXPANSION JOINT OR POTHOLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ABOVE 45-50 MPH. THE TRUCK EXPERIENCE EXTREME "BUMP STEER" AND HARMONIC OSCILLATIONS SO HARSH AS TO SEEM LIKE IT WAS A MULTIPLE TIRE BLOW OUT. DEALER TESTED AND EXPERIENCED SAME ISSUE. HAD 32,727 MILES ON THE TRUCK AT THE TIME. FORD TSB 18-2268 SUPPOSEDLY WAS THE APPLIED FIX. HOWEVER WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS AND EXPANSION JOINTS THERE IS STILL A SLIGHT BUMP STEER AND SHIMMY BUT NOT ENOUGH TO OSCILLATE HARMONICALLY. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS ON THE SUPERDUTY TRUCKS. THIS IS A CONTROL ISSUE RELATED TO BOTH PART FAILURES AND DESIGN AS MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THESE INCIDENTS BEFORE 20,000 MILES. PARTS SHOULD NOT BE WEARING OUT THIS SOON.

TAILGATE LATCH GETS STUCK AND ALSO DROPS WHILE DRIVING AND TURNING. THE TAILGATE DROPPED INVOLUNTARILY WHEN I WAS HAULING MY HORSE TRAILER AND DAMAGED BOTH MY TRUCK TAILGATE AND MY TRAILER JACK. I HAD TO CLOSE THE TAILGATE AGAIN TO GET MY HORSES OFF THE ROAD AND NOW THE TAILGATE IS STUCK AND I CANNOT UNHITCH MY TRAILER.
