On April 26,2023 we were traveling home from Florida in our F250 towing our RV. Suddenly,( after we hit a rough patch of road) our truck started violently shaking. It was HORRIBLE. My husband was driving and I was the passenger. It lasted about 20 seconds during which it took all his strength to hold the steering wheel so we would not die in a horrible crash. THIS IS NO EXAGGERATION. When it stopped I burst into tears and told him"I thought we were gonna die !" He responded, " I dont know how we didnt!" We were both very shook up realizing, what we just experienced is what someone sees right before they die in a fatal car crash. We had this happen in a much, less slighter degree last spring. So we are aware of "The FORD truck death wobble " Our Ford Dealership did replace the steering damper last August. I hope no one has to experience what we did that day ever again ! The next day we continued home cautiously. Again it happened as we entered Michigan. A just a few seconds. But PTSD kicked in from the last event and had us white knuckling. This truck has under 50,000 miles on it. We had it diagnosed and were told it would be $1500 to repair it. ARE YOU KIDDING ? What we experienced should NEVER,EVER happen in a car. Especially with under 50,000 miles on it !!! Our safety and others was put at risk as it started to wobble us into the next lane. THANK GOD, no one was there. FORD should be responsible for this repair ! NOT US ! We almost came home in Body Bags .....

vehicle looses power and shuts down while driving.....fuel injection kit is not available for purchase. Part number is HC3z9b246b to correct problem is on back order and no estimate on when part will become available. The truck has been at the dealership for 5 weeks. A hugh company like Ford this is totally unacceptable and dangerous say the least

Driving at speeds over 60 mph I have experienced a wobble in the steering. It is at the point that I am unable to control the vehicle. I am forced to slow down considerably to regain control of the vehicle

Steering, front wheels and suspension violently shakes and becomes almost uncontrollable hitting a bump or pot hole at over fifty to seventy miles an hour. Commonly known as the ford death wobbl

While driving down the road, the dash flashed Hill Assist warning, Advance Trac warning and the steering wheel jerks hard to the right with a lot of pressure causing the vehicle to swerve right, then it does it to the left. Then after a few times of doing this, it stops and all the lights and messages go away. I did not take yet take it to the dealership as I currently do not feel comfortable driving the vehicle. It feels like the vehicle is trying to swerve off the road. In fact, it did it while a Sheriff was right next to me on 04/24/2023.
