2015 FORD F-350 SD Complaints

Truck began to shake violently and did not stop shaking until I slowed to 20 mph. Safety risk of not being able to control the vehicle and having to slow on busy highway. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer. The components have not been inspected by manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. No warnings or other symptoms.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford F-350. The contact stated that while driving at 55 MPH, the vehicle message of “50 Miles until Derate Speed Limitation” was displayed. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was diagnosed by a dealer as a failure with the DEF system and a failed NOX module. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and confirmed that the vehicle was not under warranty. The failure mileage was approximately 29,593.

The vehicle goes into a violent shaking of the front end and steering wheel (Ford death wobble). It has happened many times in the last two or so years. It can start at any time when the truck is traveling over 60 MPH but it is usually associated with a bump in the road. It usually stops when I slow to 40-45 MPH. I replaced the track bar ball joint and the steering stabilizer shock and the truck didn't shake for several months but now the problem has returned. When the problem started the truck was probably under 100,000 miles and now has a bit over 130,0000.

Drivers side front brake line is passing thru the coil spring. While performing the trucks first break job I observed this. The passanger side is OK. Truck has not been any accedent. Dealer said no big deal, it hasn't failed yet. I am the original owner. Truck is not used for plowing or business. To me it looks like it was built with the wrong bracket or to short a line but I know the line should not go thru the spring. The potential for abrasion on the line is high. I have pictures of both sides of break lines.

The vehicle shakes violently (Death Wobble) when the front wheels hit an uneven highway bridge transition or a large bump in the road causing the truck cab and steering wheel to shake uncontrollably. The truck sometimes veers to the left or right a little bit depending on the position of the wheels when the death wobble begins. I have taken the vehicle back to the dealer three times and the problem has not been corrected. All the front end parts have been replaced with ford motorcraft parts.

Was driving on highway on December 10, 2020 and when entered bridge doing approximately 70 mph experienced extremely violent frontend shaking (death wobble). Had to pull to shoulder of highway and stop to reduce it. This occurred again during same trip under similar conditions. Thought something on frontend had broken, but all seemed to be alright upon visual inspection. Plan to take into Ford dealership on December 12 to have it inspected. Truck has 118,000 miles on it. This is a very dangerous situation as it occurs at higher speeds and could result in accident.

The backup camera fails to function when truck is in reverse causing a back over danger to children it was specifically supposed to address.

I was going approximately 70mph on the interstate and hit a bump and the vehicle began to shake violently and I had to make an emergency stop in the middle of the interstate to get it back under control! I’ve been told this is the death wobble. The vehicle has approximately 125,000 miles. This was very serious!
