STEERING
MY 2017 FORD F-250 HAS WHAT IS BEING CALLED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND ONLINE AS HAVING THE DEATH WOBBLE. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS WOBBLE BOTH WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS 55-75 MPH AND ON SECONDARY ROADS AS WELL AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 35-45 MPH. WHEN THIS WOBBLE OCCURS IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE AS THE STEERING WHEEL AND TRUCK IS SHAKING SO VIOLENTLY. THIS HAS CAUSED ME TO LEAVE THE TRAVEL LANE TWICE AND END UP ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND IT WILL POSSIBLY KILL EITHER MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE. I TOOK IT TO MY DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT FORD IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM HOWEVER THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND NO IDEA OF WHEN THERE WILL BE PARTS AVAILABLE. FURTHERMORE WHEN I ASKED IF THE TRUCK WAS SAFE TO DRIVE THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE TOLD ME IT SHOULD BE. SAFETY IS A YES OR NO QUESTION THERE IS NO GRAY AREA. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THERE IS A FATAL ACCIDENT INVOLVING THIS PROBLEM IF IT IS NOT CORRECTED.

STEERING
TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (OVER 55 MPH) THE STEERING WILL GO INTO A VIOLENT SHIMMY ALSO KNOWN AS A 'DEATH WOBBLE' AFTER CROSSING CERTAIN SEAMS IN THE ROADWAY. I HAVE TO BRAKE AND REDUCE SPEED RAPIDLY TO ABOUT 45 OR 50 MPH TO REGAIN CONTROL. THIS CREATES A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION DUE TO MOTORISTS BEHIND MY VEHICLE HAVING TO BRAKE ALSO. REMEMBER, THIS IS OCCURRING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS IS NOT A ONE TIME OCCURRENCE AS IT STARTED AT ABOUT 20000 MILES. AT THAT TIME A DEALER REPLACED THE STEERING DAMPER AND AT ABOUT 29000 THAT PART ALSO FAILED. I AM WAITING FOR MY LOCAL DEALER TO REPLACE THAT DAMPER WITH A 'REDESIGNED' ONE. I FEEL THIS IS JUST A BANDAID ON A MUCH MORE SERIOUS ISSUE.

WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, CROSSING OVER SMALL BUMPS OR OTHER DISTURBANCES IN THE ROAD SUCH AS POTHOLES OR JOINTED SECTIONS, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE AND SHIMMY TO THE POINT OF FEELING LIKE IT WOULD EXPLODE. HAPPENED TWICE NOW AND ONLY REMEDY IS TO SLOW DOWN CONSIDERABLY UNTIL IT GETS BACK TO NORMAL. VERY VIOLENT AND VERY SCARY.

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, IN A STRAIGHT LINE, AT 64 MPH, I DROVE OVER A ROUGH BRIDGE AND MY STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE. I IMMEDIATELY BEGAN SLOWING DOWN BUT THE SHAKING DID NOT CEASE UNTIL I SLOWED TO NEARLY 40 MPH. 18 WHEELERS AND OTHER TRAFFIC WERE PILING UP BEHIND ME AND IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO KEEP THE TRUCK ON THE ROAD.

WHILE GOING 70 MPH AFTER CROSSING A SMALL OVER PASS THE SMALL BUMP WHERE IT MEETS THE ROAD, SENT THE FRONT END OF MY VEHICLE INTO WHAT I CAN ONLY SAY WAS A VIOLENTLY OUT OF CONTROL SHAKING THAT I COULD NOT STOP FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. THE WHOLE VEHICLE SHOOT UNCONTROLLABLY AS I DID ALL I COULD TO SMASH THE BRAKE PEDAL THAT DID VERY LITTLE, AS WELL AS HOLD ON TO THE STEERING WHEEL THAT WAS GOING BACK AND FORTH SO HARD AND FAST IT WAS IT COULD NOT BE TURNED IN ANY DIRECTION UNTIL THE VEHICLES SLOWED. WE WERE IN TRAFFIC AT THE TIME AND I COULD NOT CONTROL MY VEHICLE UNTIL IT SLOWED AND I COULD GET IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE SHAKING WAS VERY VIOLENT. I KNOW ABOUT VEHICLES SO I LOOKED OVER THE WHOLE FRONT END AND SAW NOTHING WRONG. I DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME, ABOUT 30 MILES FROM THE INCIDENT AT 50 MPH. I HAD A WOBBLE AROUND 25 MPH GOING DOWN AN ON-RAMP. THE MILEAGE WAS AROUND 24,000. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL DEALER AND THE SERVICEMAN SAID, OH, YOU HAD A 'DEATH WOBBLE' AND SAID IT JUST NEEDED ADJUSTMENT. HE NEVER SAID THIS COULD HAPPEN AGAIN, OR THAT IT NEEDS TO BE MONITORED IN SOME WAY. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE PER OTHERS ON THE INTERNET. MY TRUCK HAS 57,475 MILES ON IT.

I AM EXPERIENCING DEATH WOBBLE IN MY TRUCK. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD. THE WHEELS AND FRONT END SHOOK VIOLENTLY CAUSING ME TO RUN OFF THE ROAD. LUCKILY I WAS IN AN AREA WHERE THERE WERE NO DITCHES OR HAZARDS. I TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE STEERING STABILIZER OR DAMPENER. OF COURSE THE NEW PARTS ARE BACKORDERED. I WAS 600 MILES FROM HOME WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I DROVE HOME YESTERDAY GOING 55 OR LESS THE WHOLE WAY BECAUSE I WAS SCARED TO DEATH. I EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE AGAIN TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE GOING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH. I NEARLY GOT REAR ENDED AND CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I WILL BE TAKING IT TO A LOCAL DEALER TOMORROW. THE TRUCK ONLY HAS 33,000 MILES ON IT.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
MY TRUCK HAS HAD THE FRONT END DEATH WOBBLE SINCE THE MIDDLE OF 2019. I HAVE HAD IT IN THE FORD DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. THEY REPLACED THE STEERING STABILIZER AND TOLD ME THEY ADDED SOME SHIMS TO CORRECT AN CASTER PROBLEM.. THEY RETURNED THE TRUCK TO ME.SHORTLY AFTER THAT IT BEGAN TO WOBBLE AGAIN. I CONTACTED THE SAME DEALER TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AGAIN. I SCHEDULED IT, BUT THEY IMMEDIATELY TOLD ME THAT THE NEXT FIX WOULD REQUIRE PARTS THAT WERE NOT AVAILABLE. SO I AM WAITING ON PARTS THAT ARE SUPPOSEDLY 60-90 DAYS OUT. THERE ARE MANY DOCUMENTED COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME ISSUE AND FORD WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE UNSAFE CONDITION. FORD DEALERS ARE TELLING CUSTOMERS THAT THESE TRUCKS ARE NOT DESIGNED TO BE DRIVEN FASTER THAN 70 MPH OR TO SPEND OUT OF POCKET MONEY TO BUY AFTERMARKET PARTS THAT ARE KNOWN FIXES FOR THE PROBLEM. BOTTOM LINE IS MY 60K$ TRUCK IS STILL IN WARRANTY AND A DEATH TRAP TO DRIVE AND FORD IS NOT AGGRESSIVELY FIXING THE PROBLEM. THE DEATH WOBBLE HAPPENS AT ANYWHERE FROM 50+MPH WHEN YOU ENCOUNTER AN UNEVEN PORTION OF ROAD LIKE A EXPANSION JOINT AT A BRIDGE. THE WOBBLE WILL NOT STOP UNTIL YOU ARE BELOW 30 MPH. WHEN THE WOBBLE OCCURS IT IS NOT UNCOMMON THAT YOU LOOSE CONTROL CAUSING YOU TO BE IN THE ONCOMING LANE OF TRAFFIC.

I AM FILING THIS REPORT FOR THE FAMOUS FORD SUPER DUTY F250 "DEATH WOBBLE"IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION. I HAVE HAD MY TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES FOR REPAIR, AND I AM NOW ON MY FOURTH STEERING STABILIZER INSTALLED ON MY 2017 F250 WITH ONLY 27K MILES ON IT. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE OF THE DEATH WOBBLE HAPPENED WITHIN 10K MILES, AND SUBSEQUENTLY ABOUT EVERY 3-5K MILES THEREAFTER. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS WHEN TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, AND WHEN A BUMP OR IRREGULARITY IN THE ROAD COMES UP. THE UNCONTROLLABLE SHAKING OF THE ENTIRE TRUCK RENDERS IT OUT OF CONTROL, AND CAN ONLY BE REMEDIED BY COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. IT HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME, AND THREW MY WIFE AND I INTO THE MEDIAN OF THE INTERSTATE WHILE GOING ABOUT 75MPH. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU'RE GOING STRAIGHT, AROUND A CURVE, ETC. I TRIED TO GET FORD TO DO A BUYBACK ON THIS VEHICLE, TO NO AVAIL. THEY HIDE BEHIND THE IL LEMON LAW VERBIAGE INSTEAD OF OWNING THE ISSUE. THIS VEHICLE IS MOST CERTAINLY A DEATH TRAP, AND I WILL NOT LET ANY OF MY FAMILY DRIVE THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE JUST BECAUSE OF THE DEATH WOBBLE. I AM AT A LOSS ON WHAT TO DO ABOUT THIS. I SPENT MY HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS TRUCK, ONLY TO HAVE IT BE A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD TO THOSE RIDING IN IT, AND TO ANYONE ELSE ON THE ROAD AROUND IT WHEN THE DEATH WOBBLE HAPPENS. THE ONLY THING LEFT IS LEGAL ACTION I GUESS, OR PARK IT IN THE FRONT YARD AND HAVE IT BE AN $80,000 FLOWER POT. PLEASE HELP!!

MY 2016 FORD F250 PRODUCED A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. PER AN OBD TESTER THE CODE P20BA IS PRODUCED. THIS CORRESPONDS TO THE DIESEL REDUCTANT FLUID PUMP ASSEMBLY. UPON ONLINE RESEARCH THIS NORMALLY CORRESPONDS TO THE HEATER WHICH HEATS THE DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID FAILING. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH FORD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON OLDER MODELS OF THIS TRUCK, EVIDENTLY FROM 2011 THROUGH 2015. FROM OTHER'S EXPERIENCES IT APPEARS THE PROBLEM CONTINUES INTO THE 2016 MODEL YEAR HOWEVER THERE IS NO EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE. AS THE VEHICLE MODEL OF 2016 IS SIMILAR TO THE 2011-2015 MODELS I BELIEVE COVERAGE SHOULD BE EXTENDED TO THE 2016 MODELS AS WELL. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON TODAY UPON STARTING MY VEHICLE ON 1/17/2020.

ON TWO OCCASIONS THIS WINTER I HAVE HAD DOOR LATCHES ON THIS 2017 FORD F-250 CREW CAB SUPER DUTY FREEZE PREVENTING THE DOOR FROM LATCHING CLOSED AFTER IT WAS OPENED. THE MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE WAS APPROXIMATELY 19,700 MILES. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE HAPPENED IN DECEMBER 2019. THE MORNING TEMPERATURE WAS IN THE MID 20'S (DEGREE FAHRENHEIT) AND THE TRUCK WAS PARKED OUTSIDE OVERNIGHT. AFTER OPENING BOTH FRONT DOORS OF THE TRUCK TO LOAD PERSONAL ITEMS AND MYSELF, I WAS UNABLE TO SECURE EITHER FRONT DOOR DUE TO THE FROZEN LATCHES. I TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO SHUT AND SLAM THE DOORS AND CONDUCTED A CURSORY VISUAL INSPECTION OF BOTH LATCHES. THE 'DEFECT' WAS CLEARLY INTERNAL AND THERE WAS NOTHING I WOULD BE ABLE TO DO AT THAT TIME. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OF MANIPULATING BOTH DOORS, EVENTUALLY, ONE DOOR LATCHED CLOSED. REPEATED ATTEMPTS WITH THE OTHER DOOR WERE UNSUCCESSFUL. I THEN DROVE APPROXIMATELY 2 MILES TO MY DESTINATION, ON PUBLIC ROADS, HOLDING THE UNLATCHED DOOR CLOSED WITH MY HAND. I FULLY ACCEPT THE DANGER I PLACED MYSELF IN THAT DAY AND BELIEVE MANY OTHERS WILL MAKE THE SAME CHOICE WHEN FACED WITH A SIMILAR SITUATION. MOREOVER, I BELIEVE OTHERS WILL TRAVEL MUCH LONGER DISTANCES WITH FROZEN, UNLATCHED DOORS. THIS FROZEN LATCH PROBLEM WILL ONLY BEFALL MORE SIMILAR VEHICLES AS THEY AGE. I WAS AWARE OF THE POTENTIAL OF THIS PROBLEM FROM ONLINE FORUMS. I RECEIVED FORD'S LETTER ALERTING OWNERS OF A 'POTENTIAL FIX' FOR ONLY VEHICLES WHICH HAVE EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM. I HAVE ALSO SEEN NUMEROUS ONLINE POSTINGS THAT FORD'S FIX FOR THE LATCHES IS SOMETIMES UNSUCCESSFUL. I HAVE NOT HAD THIS PROCEDURE PERFORMED AS I DO NOT BELIEVE IT 'FIXES' THE ISSUE OF FROZEN LATCHES AND A FULL REDESIGN OF THE LATCH IS REQUIRED. PEOPLE DRIVING THESE VEHICLES WITH UNLATCHED DOORS IS CLEARLY UNSAFE. THE DANGER IS EVEN GREATER IF PEOPLE DO NOT REALIZE THE DOOR IS UNLATCHED.

2019 F250 KING RANCH PURCHASED NEW IN LATE JUNE 2019. FRONT SHIMMY (ALSO REFERRED TO AS "DEATH WOBBLE"), STARTED OCCURRING AT AROUND 16,000 MILES. THE FRONT WHEELS, SUSPENSION, STEERING COLUMN, ETC,. WILL SHAKE VIOLENTLY AFTER PASSING OVER A BUMP, SUCH AS AN EXPANSION JOINT, POTHOLES, OR PAVEMENT OVERLAPS AT 60 MPH OR GREATER. HAPPENS MOSTLY DURING INTERSTATE/HIGHWAY DRIVING. VIOLENT SHAKING WILL NOT STOP UNTIL VEHICLE HAS SLOWED TO < 25 MPH. AS SOON AS PROBLEM STARTED, THE TRUCK WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT. PARTS REPLACED AS STATED ON THE ATTACHED INVOICE DATED 12/10/19. THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM, SO THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THE PARTS REPLACED ARE STATED ON THE ATTACHED INVOICE DATED 12/26/19. THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT ON 1/14/20. THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED THAT THEY ARE ENCOUNTERING THE SAME ISSUES WITH OTHER F250 OWNERS, ESPECIALLY WITH THE 2017-2020 MODELS. THE PARTS MANAGER ORDERED WHAT HE REFERRED TO AS A "SLEEVE" THAT HE HOPED WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT THE PART IS ON BACK-ORDER FOR 4-8 WEEKS. THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT PROVIDE A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE FOR THE TIME BEING, SO I AM FORCED TO DRIVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE.

CROSSED OVER VEHICLE WARRANTY AT 36000... AT 38K THE VEHICLE HAD FIRST "DEATH WOBBLE" AT APPROX 70MPH (HIGHWAY) AFTER HITTING MINOR ROAD IMPERFECTION.. VEHICLE IS NOW AT JUST UNDER 40,000 MILES ON ODOMETER.. HAVE HAD 4 OTHER EPISODES IN THIS BRIEF PERIOD OF TIME. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO SOMEONE'S POINTLESS LOSS OF LIFE. THIS ISSUE IS WELL DOCUMENTED THROUGHOUT THE INTERNET IN COUNTLESS BLOGS-WEBSITES-AND VIDEOS. TO CHARGE ANYWHERE FROM $35,000-$90,000 DEPENDING ON MODEL AND KNOWINGLY PUT PEOPLES LIVES AT RISK OVER A PROBLEM (THAT MY DEALERSHIP AND THE FORD CUSTOMER CARE PROGRAM ADMIT IS A PROBLEM) AND NOT ISSUE A RECALL OR BUYBACK IS REPREHENSIBLE AND NEGLIGENT.

WHILE DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEED, STEERING WHEEL AND SUSPENSION WAS SHAKING TO THE POINT OF ABOUT TO LOSE CONTROL. ONLY BY DRIVING UNDER 50MPG WAS I ABLE TO SAFELY RETURN TO A DEALER FOR SERVICE. HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD AMPLIFIED THE ISSUE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY STATED IT IS THE STEERING DAMPENING SYSTEM. THEY DO NOT HAVE NEW PARTS OR TIME OF REPAIR. I WAS NEARLY IN 3 ACCIDENTS WITH A SEMI WHEN THIS HAPPENED. IT REQUIRED IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AND RESOLUTION BEFORE ANYONE IS KILLED
