2019 FORD F-250 SD Complaints

AFTER DRIVING OVER BUMPS ON THE FREEWAY THE TRUCK START SHAKING VIOLENTLY. IT WAS HARD TO CONTROL AND HAD TO SLOW DOWN TO 15 MPH TO GET IT TO STOP.

When driving I came across a rough patch in the roadway. I was doing about 60- 65 mph when suddenly the front end starting shaking. I had to grab the steering wheel with both hands and apply the brakes to gain control of the vehicle

2019 Ford F250. Consumer writes regarding low fuel pressure gauge. THAT CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE BECAME FULLY ENGULFED IN FLAMES AND WAS DESTROYED. WHILE DRIVING THE CONSUMER SAW SMOKE EMITTING FROM THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED BY THE MANUFACTURER.

While accelerating onto onramp on IH35 South of Ft Worth my truck went over a small bump. Speed was approx 65mph at that point and a violent shaking started. I pulled over and slowed and it stopped after I slowed to approx 40mph. I got out and inspected but found nothing. I got back to hwy speeds and about 20 minutes later hit another bump in hwy. Same issue: Violent shaking of front end/Steering Wheel. Luckily I was in far right lane and was able to control vehicle until I could slow enough to make it stop.

THE TRUCK REACTS VERY STRONGLY WHEN DRIVING 60-70 MILES PER HOUR AND HITTING A ROUGH PATCH OR POOR ROAD SURFACE. THIS RESULTS IN STEERING PULLING TO ONE SIDE/VEERING, EXTREME VIBRATION AND SHAKING THROUGHOUT THE TRUCK. I HAVE TO HANG ON TO THE STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP IT IN THE LANE AND LIFT THE FOOT OFF THE GAS WHILST IT SETTLES DOWN TO DRIVING SMOOTHLY AND BACK IN CONTROL AGAIN. ONLINE I SEE THAT THIS IS REFERRED COMMONLY TO 'DEATH WOBBLE'. IT IS GETTING WORSE AND MAKES ME CONCERNED RE DRIVING AT HIGHER SPEEDS AS IT IS DIFFICULT TO KEEP THE TRUCK STRAIGHT / NOT BOUNCING UP AND DOWN. IT HAS HAPPENED 6-8 TIMES IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS SINCE MAR 2021 - IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT ON THE INTERSTATE WITH A ROUGH SURFACE.

MY TRUCK WAS PARKED LAST NIGHT AND I CAME OUT TO IT THE MORNING AND MY REAR HEATED SLIDING GLASS WINDOW WAS SHATTERED

APPROXIMATELY 5 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS I HAVE EXPERIENCED "DEATH WABBLE" WITH MY F250, IN THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT, I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER HITTING A BUMP AT HIGHWAY SPEED, I EXPERIENCED AN OSCILLATION IN THE FRONT WHEELS, CAUSING VIOLENT SHAKING, THAT WOULD NOT STOP UNTIL I STOPPED THE TRUCK. FORD TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE TRUCK.

I WAS DRIVING ALONE E ON IL RT 64 AT ABOUT 2:45 PM WHEN I HIT A SERIES OF BUMPS ON ROAD THAT MADE THE FRONT END SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. I HAD TO BRAKE AND SLOW TO UNDER 20 MPH BEFORE IT STOPPED. AGAIN LATER THAT NIGHT AT ABOUT 8 PM COMING S ON IL RT 2 WITH CRUISE SET AT 55 MPH IT HAPPENED AGAIN HAD TO BRAKE/SLOW TO UNDER 20 MPH AGAIN. THIS TIME MY WIFE AND MOTHER-IN-LAW WERE WITH TO EXPERIENCE IT. I HAVE NOTICED FRONT END BEING A LITTLE WISHY-WASHY AFTER HITTING BUMPS BUT THOUGHT IT WAS DUE TO STIFFER SUSPENSION AFTER EXPERIENCING THIS I DON'T BELIEVE THAT IS THE CASE. VEHICLE HISTORY SO FAR- PURCHASED USED FROM WICKSTROM FORD. WENT THRU THEIR USED CAR INSPECTION BEFORE I COULD PURCHASE IT- NEW REAR TIRES AND BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS ALL AROUND. WILL TRY GETTING IN TO HAVE CHECKED OUT AND TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN FOR STEERING DAMPER PERFORMED. HAVE PUT LESS THAN 600 MILES ON TRUCK SINCE PURCHASING.

WHEN I HIT A BUMP OR UNEVEN LANES (50-60MPH) MY TRUCKS MY FRONT END VIOLENTLY SHAKES AND MAKES MY VEHICLE HARD TO HANDLE. AT LOWER SPEEDS 20-50 WHEN I HIT A BUMP OR UNEVEN LANES THE TRUCK WILL SHIFT TO THE SIDE THE BUMP HIT ALMOST LIKE DRIVING ON ICE.

I AM EXPERIENCING SEVERE DEATH WOBBLE. IT HAPPENED 6 TIMES ON THE INTERSTATE BETWEEN 4/24/2021 AND 4/25/2021. IT IS VIOLENT STEERING WHEEL OSCILLATION AND TRUCK VIBRATION. IT HAPPENED BETWEEN SPEEDS OF 65-75MPH. MY TRUCK ONLY HAS 32000 MILES ON IT. FORD HAS RECALLED THE STEERING LINKAGE DAMPENER. I'M AFRAID THIS REPLACEMENT WILL ONLY FIX THE PROBLEM FOR A FEW THOUSAND MILES AND THEN I WILL HAVE TO COVER COSTS OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY. I PLANNED ON KEEPING THIS TRUCK FOR A WHILE BUT IT IS DANGEROUS. IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN TOWING MY GOOSENECK TRAILER, I WOULD HAVE LIKELY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. IT COULD HAVE INJURED OR KILLED MYSELF, MY FAMILY, OR OTHER MOTORISTS. I HAVE A VIDEO OF THE INCIDENT, BUT I CAN'T UPLOAD IT HERE. THE FORD TECHNICIAN SAID IT WAS THE WORST HE HAD SEEN.
