SUSPENSION, STEERING
Traveling at 60 miles per hour I hit a bump in the freeway and the truck went into uncontrollable shake and jumped around like a pogo stick until I came to a stop. Pulled to the side of the road and checked wheels and looked at the suspension but didn't see anything unusual. Traveled normally after that. I only have 22,000 miles on this truck and have had bouncing and jumping before when traveling over bumps but it had been quite mild compared the what just happened. Luck we didn't hit or get hit!

STEERING
I just purchased my 2019 F350 King Ranch and a 2023 Gator made 24.9K 35+5 trailer for my business. When driving the truck without trailer truck does well. However when I purchased and picked up trailer and got on the highway I felt vibration in the steering wheel and cab of truck between 65-75 MPH. I checked tire pressures and everything was in range. (My truck and trailer have brand new tires) I proceeded back on the highway and it continued to shake periodically this scared me! I did some research and found that it resembles the "Death Wobble" I have not reported this problem to the dealership because it states to contact you guys first. I will contact dealership next. Oh there were no indictor light that came on or are on. This truck is available and can be inspected. Thanks

STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
On September 21, 2022 I was driving to Vail, CO. I hit a bump in the road as I was heading up the Vail pass. Immediately after, my truck started shaking violently out of control with no control of my steering. I skid across the highway and was lucky not to hit anything. When looking this up it appears it was the Ford Death Wobble.

Death wobble horrific experience (2)x on 9/15/22 after work on the interstate coming home. Almost rear ended by 18 wheeler. Travel speed 74. 6-lane highway, I had to control the vehicle best as possible in order to move over (3) lanes safely. Cars raced past blaring their horns b:c accident almost happened. Again on 9/18/22, merging on the interstate travel speed 60 with trailer attached. It was a VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE! I almost got killed not to mention another person could’ve lost their life too! This defect IS NO JOKE!! Ford should take responsibility & RECALL THESE VEHICLES!!! Do we have to die before they decide to fix a defective part(s)? I love my F350, & only source of transportation. I can’t afford to repair it at the moment. But Ford can at No charge to me. $65k vehicle, $3k parts/labor on a defect known by Ford & they’re not gonna take care of their customers?? WTF!!! I’ll sue Ford - safety is priority but not to Ford!

I have less then 40k on my 2019 f350 and I was driving home from work on August 24th on a back country road and all of a sudden my truck went into a complete shake as if I was going over rumble strips times 10... I was only going maybe 70km hr on dry/smooth road. I stopped the truck got out and looked at all my tires and nothing to be seen. Proceeded to head home and all was fine again. When this happened I had very little control of steering. This scares the absolute crap out of me as I haul horses all the time on the hwy's and if this was to happen doing higher speed hauling, I am scared of the outcome. I am a very experienced driver and hauling, driven all across Canada and the States hauling high end horses even in Europe. I am hoping a fix is in the very near future as if I was to lose my life or one of my animals life because of this... NOT GOOD for a anyone. thanks

STEERING
Driving the Richardson Highway, just north of Eureka Alaska, towing a small trailer with a side by side on. Hit a bump (frost heave) on the highway. The steering wheel became uncontrollable and shaking violently side to side. So violent, it was extremely difficult to maintain control. Called for a tow truck, but that was a minimum of 5 hours away. During this time, a friend of mine in town, did some research and we concluded it was the SuperDuty Death wobble, which appears to be a common experience. This is completely unacceptable, this should be a mandatory recall and this issue fixed before someone dies.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
Starting 3 weeks ago I experienced a very heavy and almost uncontrollable shaking in my steering and suspension after hitting a rough patch on the road. Since then it has occurred at least 7 additional times. I am now a bit hesitant to drive the truck. The truck is available for inspection and the dealer has confirmed this is a known problem often termed as the Death Wobble. The truck has not been inspected by anyone yet and there were no warnings of any kind prior to the many times it has happened. I took it to the dealer within a couple of days of the first incident and they have parts on back order but still nothing to fix my truck with after almost 5 weeks. I called the hotline in the letter that Ford sent out regarding the extended warranty for this issue and they said they would take care of it but I have not heard back from them today (I called yesterday and they said I would get a call before EOB today).

intermittent "death wobble" from front tires. Has been happening since about 4000 miles. First dealer said nothing was wrong, then they replaced steering stabilizer under recall, then they replaced track bar. Then they said they can't find anything wrong. Truck is still wobbling at 39000 miles. Truck is 100% stock

While driving down the road we got the death wobble after hitting a bump in the road. The truck violently shook and was unable to steal until the truck stopped. After that the truck was drivable again until it happens again.

The steering started wobbling very bad after hitting a bad section of the highway. I had to almost come to a complete stop for it to quit shaking. These occurred several more times on a 3000 mile trip. I was pulling a 40 ft 5th wheel and made it very hard to control. I have the truck at the ford dealer to check it out. There were no warnings before the first time it happened.

On 7/22/2022 I was driving on I80 in Salt Lake City, UT at approx 3:30 pm. The weather was clear the highway was dry. I was traveling at 55 MPH and hit a pothole. The truck began to wobble violently and required I come to complete stop on the shoulder before it stopped wobbling. I then progressed slowly to determine if it had rectified and proceeded to my destination. Since that time I have experienced continued wobble when I go over expansion joints or bumps, but not as violent as the one in SLC. It resolves fairly quickly with minor deceleration. I will be contacting a FORD Dealer about this issue to get it rectified. I have spoken to other F350 owners that have had similar experiences.

At 32k miles sudden development of a severe steering wheel shake after a small bump in the road. It now happens repeatedly at highway speed under normal driving conditions. I am required to slow to under 30mph to allow the shake to stop. This happens when just driving the truck as well as anytime I am pulling out 35ft 5th wheel home. The first few times it happened, I was able to keep the truck and trailer straight until I slowed enough. More recently it is harder to keep the truck going straight as the ability to steer during this event is diminished. Two ford dealers have told me it’s just how the truck is. I have another appointment just for this issue on August 1, 2022.
