The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-250. The contact stated while driving 40 - 60 MPH, the contact experienced the death wobble. The contact used an excessive amount of force to maintain control of the vehicle. The contact occasionally slowed down or stopped the vehicle to and reduced the speed to regain control of vehicle. There were no warning lights illuminated. The failure recurred approximately 3 times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who related the failure with NHTSA ID Number: 10174720 (Steering) regarding the steering linkage; however, the vehicle was not repaired due to parts not being available. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and attempted to expedite the part to the dealer. The approximate failure mileage was 36,600.

When driving vehicle around 60 to 65 mph on interstate, when you hit a bump it will begin to shake violently and pull to one side. Took vehicle to dealership. They replaced numerous parts, but steering linkage arm, which Ford says it actual problem, is back ordered and could be a year before it is available. I was driving vehicle on the interstate after picking it up from the dealership and it did exactly the same thing. It does not seem safe to drive vehicle, but I do not have another truck to drive.

When driving the truck between 60 and 70 MPH and hitting a rough spot in the road (pothole, broken concrete section) with the drive side tire the steering wheel and entire front of the truck will shake violently. This will continue until speed is reduced below 40 MPH. In traffic slowing down to have the shaking stop is difficult and cause for a safety concern. If traveling on a two lane highway with other vehicles in the right lane it is very difficult to exit in order to slow down.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-250. The contact stated that the rearview camera image failed to display while reversing. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed; however, no issues were found. The contact stated that the failure recurred while reversing. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the rearview camera needed to be replaced. The part was replaced; however, the failure reoccurred mostly while it was raining. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the tailgate wiring harness had experienced an electrical short. The tailgate wiring harness was replaced; however, the failure persisted. The contact stated that the rearview camera image was significantly distorted. The contact contacted a second dealer, Fred Beans Ford of Washington (359 NJ-31, Washington, NJ 07882) who informed him that there could be moisture inside the wiring harness, and he had to pay for a diagnostic test. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Numbers: 22V644000 (Back Over Prevention) and 22V252000 (Back Over Prevention). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 30,000.

During the operation of the vehicle on a highway over 55 mph, after riding over a pothole on the road, the vehicle ceased to have steering. For 3 seconds the vehicle drifted in the right lane into another vehicle. After overcorrecting, the vehicle engaged the steering swerving to the left creating great instability by turning towards another vehicle. In this circumstance, an accident was avoided by a quick response and an attentative, however, we cannot drive the vehicle over 50mph otherwise luck may not be with us. The problem was previously identified by the local Fairfax dealership and the mechanic identified the Steering Stabilizer as problematic. A replacement was done, but the problem reoccurred. The 2nd Steering Stabilizer was installed at cost to us and initially the problem went away. Within a year, the problem has reoccurred creating the most dangerous incident so far. This problem is well known within the Ford enthusiast community noted in the link below: https://www.google.com/search?q=ford+f250+stblizer+problems&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS917US917&oq=ford+f250+stblizer+problems&aqs=chrome..69i57j0i22i30l3j0i390l3.9863j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

Driving 65 mph on state highway, after going over minimal bumps, front end shook terribly and would not stop. It almost caused a multi vehicle collision including tractor trailers. No notification from Ford until I brought vehicle in for diagnosis, Death Wobble

F250 Death Wobble, driving on the fwy anything above 55 mph and I hit a bump or any typ eof transition, my truck shakes and wobbles extremely dangerously. Causing me to often have to stop on FWY to fix.

In the last month of Nov,2022 I almost had 3 near accident incidents with my F250 Super Duty Ford due to a wobbling on front driver side wheels. I have done some research and looks like my truck has the wobble of death issues. I am afraid to drive again and it is our work truck and would like to know my options. Thank you

My 2019 super duty is only 3.5 years old with 35K miles on it. It is well taken care of and maintained accordingly at the dealership for its maintenance schedule. Recently I’ve been experiencing what others have reported for a total of 7 times now, each time over the speed of 65 MPH. It’s referred to as the “death wobble” on the front end. The whole vehicle shakes violently and you have to slow to a stop and pull over to make it stop. Each time I was on the freeway and once in the Rockies in Colorado and nearly wrecked there. Each time this occurs I’ve come Close to causing several vehicle accidents and being in law enforcement for over 22 years most of not all accidents are preventable but this is not. I’ve also learned I’m not the only owner experiencing the same issue and that Ford is aware of the problems. I also had passengers inside my vehicle.
