2015 FORD F-250 SD Complaints

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 60-70 MPH I DROVE ACROSS A BRIDGE TRANSITION POINT WHEN OUT OF THE BLUE MY TRUCK BEGAN TO WOBBLE EXCESSIVELY TO THE POINT I HAD TO MERGE TO MY RIGHT AND SLOW DOWN TO UNDER 40 MPH TO GET THE WOBBLE TO STOP. CARS BEHIND COULD SEE I WAS IN SOME SORT OF TROUBLE AND THEY WOULD NOT PASS ME. ONCE THE WOBBLE STOPPED I PROCEEDED TO MERGE BACK ONTO THE FREEWAY AND ONCE AGAIN THE WOBBLE STARTED AS SOON AS I PASSED OVER THE BRIDGE TRANSITION. AGAIN I APPLIED MY BRAKES AND MOVED OVER TO THE RIGHT FOR MY SAFETY AS WELL AS OTHERS. THE MILEAGE ON MY TRUCK AT THAT TIME WAS 20,780 MILES. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY FORD DEALER AND EXPLAINED THE SITUATION TO THEM. THEY INSPECTED THE TRUCK AND REPLACED THE STEERING DAMPER ASSEMBLY. THE PROBLEM DID GO AWAY UNTIL AUGUST 19, 2019 WITH 34,052 MILES WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN IN THE SAME LOCATION. I RETURNED TO THE DEALER AGAIN AND THEY REPLACED THE STEERING DAMPER AGAIN. IT RESOLVED THE ISSUE FOR 1695 MILES AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN SEVERAL TIME AT DIFFERENT LOCATIONS ON DIFFERENT FREEWAYS. THIS TIME REPLACING THE DAMPER DID NOT WORK. THEY ALSO TOLD ME I NEEDED TO HAVE THEM INSTALL A CASTER/CAMBER ADJUSTER SHIM TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. THAT ALSO DID NOT WORK. THEY HAVE READJUSTED THE CAMBER AND CASTER WITH WORSE RESULTS. THEY NOW TELL ME THAT I NEED TO REPLACE MY TIRES WHICH STILL HAVE 6/32 OF TREAD LEFT ON THEM. THE TRUCK HAS NOW BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR SIX WEEKS WITH NO FIX AVAILABLE. THEY PUT A SET OF TIRES AND RIMS OFF OF ANOTHER NEW TRUCK AND SAID THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. SO WHAT THERE TELLING ME IS I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE MY TIRES EVERY 20,000 MILES WHICH BE RIDICULOUS. FORD HAS A BIG PROBLEM THAT THEY DON'T WANT TO ADMIT. I BELIEVE A DUAL STEERING STABILIZER UNIT WILL FIX THIS PROBLEM BUT THEY DON'T WANT TO ADMIT THAT WOULD WORK. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ASAP TO SAVE LIVES.

IF THE TRUCK HITS BUMPS ON THE HIGHWAY, ON OR OFF A BRIDGE FOR EXAMPLE, THE FRONT WHEELS SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND I MEAN VIOLENTLY AND HAS HAPPENED 40 PLUS TIMES IN 6 MONTHS. ALL FRONT END PARTS ARE TIGHT AND ALL TIE RODS ARE NEW.SHOCKS ARE NEW STABILIZER SHOCK HAS BEEN REPLACED 3 TIMES. EACH TIME ITS REPLACED PROBLEM GOES AWAY, OR SEEMS TO FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS. IT HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY ONLY , 60-70 MPH. I TRAVEL SOME REGULAR ROUTES SO I HAVE LEARNED WHERE TO TRY TO AVOID. PROBLEM STARTED AT 92,000 MILES. TRUCK NOW HAS 108,000 MILES ON IT. I PURCHASED THE TRUCK WITH 36,000 MILES ON IT. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT BUT CANNOT AFFORD ANYTHING ELSE. THANKS

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2015 F250 SUPER DUTY. IT WAS A CLEAN TITLE NO ACCIDENTS. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THE TRUCK I WAS DRIVING BETWEEN 43 -55 MPH ON A COUNTY ROAD WHEN MY STEERING WHEEL AND IN FACT THE ENTIRE TRUCK STARTED SHAKING SO VIOLENTLY I WAS HAVING TROUBLE MAINTAINING CONTROL. I MANAGED TO SLOW DOWN QUICKLY AND IT STOPPED. AFTER SEVERAL MORE OCCURRENCES ALL AT THE SAME SPEEDS I TOOK MY TRUCK TO A SPECIALTY WHEEL AND ALIGNMENT SHOP AND PAID NEARLY 1,000 DOLLARS TO HAVE THIS FIXED. AFTER NEW BUSHINGS, NEW TIRES, NEW SHOCKS, NEW STEERING AND NEW ALIGNMENT IT ABATED FOR 3 MONTHS. IT IS NOW BACK AND AS SCARY AS EVER. I HAD A 2004 F250 SUPER DUTY AND NEVER HAD THIS KIND OF ISSUE. I HAVE NOW LEARNED THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT FORD WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE OR EVEN RECALL. I MAY HAVE TO SELL THIS TRUCK BECAUSE OF THE DANGER TO THE REST OF MY FAMILY. THERE IS ALSO A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT OVER THIS KNOWN AND VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS BEFORE MORE MONEY AND MORE DAMAGE IS CAUSED. IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN IN A TRUCK THAT DOES THIS COME TO TEXAS AND TAKE A RIDE WITH ME. I PROMISE IT WILL SCARE YOU INTO ACTION. THIS HAS BEEN MY PROBLEM SINCE MARCH. IT IS ALWAYS ON ROUGHER ROADS OR AFTER HITTING UNEVEN PAVEMENT.

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND ENCOUNTERING ROAD IRREGULARITIES, TRUCK ENTERS INTO "DEATH WOBBLE" CONDITION WHEREBY TRUCK SHAKES VIOLENTLY UNTIL SPEED IS REDUCED TO <30 MPH. SUSPENSION WAS REBUILT 3 MONTHS AGO BY FORD DEALER AND CONDITION HAS RETURNED. IN THESE SITUATIONS THE VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL AND COULD EASILY RESULT IN TOTAL LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AT SPEEDS OF 60 MPH AND GREATER.

TRUCK START SHAKING VIOLENTLY AT 60 MILES PER HOUR AT RANDOM TIMES ON RANDOM DAYS, ALSO KNOWN AS THE DEATH WOBBLE

HELLO, ON HIGHWAY GOING BETWEEN 60-70 MILES AN HOUR, IT GOES INTO A DEATH WOBBLE THAT NEARLY THREW TRUCK OFF ROAD. VERY SCARY SITUATION. APPEARS FROM READING ONLINE THIS HAD BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH FORD F250 PICKUP TRUCKS FROM READING ONLINE CONSUMER COMPLAINTS.

THE STEERING ON MY 2015 FORD F250 HAS A VERY SERIOUS WOBBLE. IT OCCURS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (55-70 MPH), IT IS A VERY VIOLENT SHAKING THAT ALMOST CAUSED ME TO LOSE CONTROL OF MY TRUCK. I HAVE REPLACED THE STEERING DAMPER, SHOCKS AND STEERING ARM BALL JOINT. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF REPLACING ALL TIE ROD ENDS NOW AS I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT OVER 50 MPH.

WHILE GOING 70MPH ON HIGHWAY I DROVE OVER AN UNEVEN PAVING SEAM ON A SLIGHT LEFT CORNER AND TRUCK WENT INTO A FRONT END WOBBLE CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO PULL OVER THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY TO GET IT TO STOP.

2015 FORD F 250 HAS DEATH WOBBLE WAS DRIVING 70MPH THE STEERING HAS A UNCONTROLLABLE SHAKING AND BOUNCING IN THE STEERING HAS TO SLOW VEHICLE TO 30 MPH TO GET SHAKING TO STOP AND IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DO IN HEAVY TRAFFIC
