NO NO NONE I am a former Mechanic and this is LIFE THREATENING.

NHTSA #11616075

My truck has only 13000 miles on it. We were going on vacation pulling our camper. I was doing about 63 MPH when we hit a bump in the interstate and the truck started VIOLENTLY shaking out of control. They cal it the death wobble. After doing some research it seams to be a very common problem that ford will not fully address. They put a bandage over a serious issue. They put me, my family and others in very serious danger. It took everything I had to keep us from going in the ditch. A vehicle with only 13000 miles on it should not experience something like this.

NHTSA #11608950

While on a ramp to merge onto a highway, slightly downhill, a small ripple in the pavement joint caused the front wheels and steering wheel to shake violently and nearly lost control of the vehicle. Was traveling at approximately 40-50mph and could not steer the truck and the out of control shaking did not stop until I was able to slow to maybe 5-10mph. I was towing a trailer and if I had not been on a wide roadway late at night, going straight with little traffic around me, it's very likely I would have had a serious accident. The truck has 40,000 miles on it and tires etc are in good condition as this is a federal government owned and maintained vehicle. I see no recalls or service bulletins for the vin, but found hundreds of complaints online of the exact situation and referred to as out of control "death wobble". This is a serious issue and people will very likely be in serious and fatal accidents if not already.

NHTSA #11587667

Severe uncontrollable shaking of the front wheels. I had to slow down to about 10 miles an hour on the freeway, people has to swerve to avoid me. It has happened 4 times in the last 3,000 miles. The date below is the most recent time it happened. I'll be taking it to the Ford Dealership.

NHTSA #11571379

Death Wabble Twice all 6 wheels shook as though falling off. Semi truck behind hit airhorn and locked up brakes to avoid hitting me at 75mph..i had to immediately slow to 20mph to stop castrophe

NHTSA #11572155

Experiencing what’s known as the “death wobble.”

NHTSA #11541984

EXCESSIVE SHAKE AND UNCONTROLABLE STEERING WHEN RIDING ON ROUGH SURFACE OR BUMPS IN THE ROAD. EFFECT WILL NOT DISSAPATE UNTIL VEHICLE IS BROUGHT TO A STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES RECENTLY.

Sustained steering oscillation on two (2) occasions. July 16th and Aug 4th. Had to slow down both times for it to stop.

NHTSA #11537037

Was driving in middle lane eastbound I-84 with cruise control set at 65 mph. Upon a lane bump from paving construction, the truck began a violent shaking, which is consistent with a problem know as "death wobble". slowed down immediately and stopped at side of interstate. Inspected tires, and there was no flat tire. No outward signs of tire damage . Drove at 20-25 mph to next exit. Was able to drive home about 20 miles at slow speed.

NHTSA #11519704

While driving at any speed above 30mph the front end wobbles violently whenever the truck hits potholes or big bumps in the road!

NHTSA #11520162

I was accelerating to get on the freeway and there was a slight bump or crease in the pavement and my front end started to bounce and warble uncontrollably, fortunately I was able to pull off of the on-ramp and come to a stop with out incident. This was not the first time I noticed this, but it was definitely the worst.

NHTSA #11508324

When I hit a bump with this truck the steering shakes violently. I brought to ford and they said it is a steering dampner and it is a recalled part and they would fix it as a recall however they said they dont have the part and they dont know when the part will be available. I am now left with an undriveable truck and no one can tell me when it can be fixed.

NHTSA #11503545

While operating my 2019 F350 on 12/3/2022 at approximately 65 MPH on an interstate the steering wheel began to shake/pulse violently from left to right for approximately 40 seconds. I was unable to control the vehicle during this time. About 2 minutes later the exact same symptoms appeared again, even more violently. I had a passenger in the vehicle record the second incident. During these incidents it is next to impossible to control the vehicle. This is an ongoing issue which Ford is aware of...a quick search online and you'll see this is referred to as the "Super Duty Death Wobble". My vehicle was repaired 3 times for this same issue prior to the incident which is mentioned above. The dealer installed an aftermarket part, which was authorized by Ford at the time. However, Ford now no longer authorizes the use of this part. The correct part has been on backorder forever and many doubt that it will ever be shipped for installation into vehicles. Both Ford and the NHTSA have failed consumers by never mandating recall for this steering issue in Ford Super Duty trucks. I am now forced to try and drive a truck with serous safety issue because both the OEM and federal government have failed to ensure that safety standards were met. The dealer has informed me that they can make no further repairs for this issue and that Ford has directed them to await the replacement parts.

NHTSA #11496426

The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-350. The contact stated while driving approximately 55 MPH and driving over a rough patch of roadway, the steering wheel started jerking to the left and the right. The vehicle had experienced the death wobble. The contact slowed down to 30 MPH and the vehicle started driving properly. The contact resumed driving 55 MPH and the vehicle drove normally. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who diagnosed that the sway bar needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 12,000.

NHTSA #11493770

Upon crossing a bridge expansion joint at around 65 -70 mph, the vehicle steering began to shake violently side to side. I was able to quickly reduce my speed and the shaking subsided once I was able to slow to around 40 mph. I have not contacted the ford dealer yet, but do recall seeing mention of this specific problem before. I started searching the internet for answers where I came upon the recommendation to report this dangerous incident to your agency.

NHTSA #11491964

I was crossing a railroad at 50-55 miles per hour and the front end started shaking violently and was barely able to control it . almost had to stop to get the shaking to stop.

NHTSA #11491625

Ford has issued a recall on the steering dampener. The ford brand part is on back order. There are several aftermarket options available however ford refuses to cover the costs of these parts. They are also refusing to cover the cost of a rental vehicle similar to what I a currently driving. Basically forcing me to drive a vehicle with a serious steering defect.

NHTSA #11490931

After traversing across a bridge the truck started shaking violently. I could not keep the truck under control and it started to ver off the interstate to the shoulder. Once the truck slowed down to about 30 mph the truck stopped shaking. I was towing a 39’ camper. Once the shaking started I had absolutely no control of the truck. This truck only has 35,000 miles on it and should not be experiencing steering and suspension failure. After researching this is a very common issue with these trucks.

NHTSA #11488857

Traveling with fifth wheel out of home state and the steering wheel and front end starts shaking violently. Was on the interstate when this happened. This has happened now three times and I’m concerned I may loose control and crash.

NHTSA #11488583

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!

NHTSA #11487601

Death Wobble was a consistent problem. Driving at approximately 40-60 mph and the front end and steering wheel shook violently after hitting a bump in the road. I have an extended warranty and Ford repaired it yesterday (I hope). They said it was caused by loose parts. Here is a list of their repairs: Installed BC3Z 3050 C : Joint ASY - Ball Installed AC3Z 3A116 A : Bush - Front Suspension AR Installed HC3Z 3304 A : Rod ASY - Drag link Installed 3A131 B : Ind ASY - Drag link rod Replaced loose parts Track bar ball joint Track bar bushing Upper drag link, lower drag link, right hand tire rod end.

NHTSA #11490094

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!

NHTSA #11485501

Truck violently shakes when vehicle traverses over pothole while traveling over 55 mph. Commonly called the “ford death wobble”. Taken to Ford dealership twice, each time told they can’t replicate the issue.

NHTSA #11497373

Extreme shaking / loss of control when hitting bump (Ford “Death Wobble”) No accident, was able to slow to a stop and regain control. Happened a few times, had to keep extremely slow to get home.

NHTSA #11482887

While traveling on the highway and going over uneven pavement the truck began shaking violently and i lost control of said vehicle. once slowed below 40 mph I regained control.

NHTSA #11481417

3 different occasions where my trucks front wheels and steering wheel shakes uncontrollably after hitting a pothole or bridge transition. Twice pulling a fifth wheel camper and once by itself. Very scary. Twice I had to come to a near stop before I could continue. Death wobble they call it. Took to Ford dealership who said the fix is a steering damper which is on national back order with no release date. It has happened once again since then for a total of 4 times. Never know when it will happen. Just depends on the bridge transition or pothole. Ford needs to correct this steering problem

NHTSA #11506563

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).

NHTSA #11479819

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.

NHTSA #11475954

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.

NHTSA #11476561

During the past two weeks while pulling a 5th wheel trailer I have experienced multiple incidents of violent front end shaking; a feeling that the front of my truck is almost floating from side-to-side and a rapid jerking of the steering wheel back and forth. The only way to regain control of the vehicle is a hard breaking to slow the truck from my normal towing speed of 65 mph to around 40 mph. When this happens in heavy traffic pulling a 12,000-pound trailer I’m afraid I will hit a vehicle on either side of me or be hit by a vehicle from behind due to the hard breaking. It happened 3 times on the same day during a recent 400-mile travel day along I-40. The events were precipitated by rough road, potholes, transitions between the roadway and a bridge, etc.

NHTSA #11472565

Experienced the Ford Death Wobble approximately July 1, 2022. After going over a small pothole at 65 mph, vehicle experienced severe wobble and pulled from far right lane to shoulder and veered toward cement wall at 65mph! Braking caused increase in wobble. Was finally able to slow vehicle to exit highway. No prior issues with wobble nor any warning. Shaking and nearly crying, I slowly drove to Big O shop who confirmed wobble and recommended Dealer address problem. Slowly drove to Ford dealer which took two days to confirm issue and inform me that parts were backordered and would call when available. (As of 3/23/23 no call.) Ford told me to not drive over 45mph, essentially making my truck useless. Slowly drove back to Big O and had them repair at my cost ~$1600, Ford reimbursed ~$250. On 3/21/23, driving 65mph over small bump in road, experienced Death Wobble again and pulled to side of highway. Slowly drove to Big O and had additional parts installed ~$330. Scared to drive my truck over 45mph!

NHTSA #11513385

I was traveling down an interstate (60 mph)and hit a bump in the road. The vehicle and steering wheel started to shake violently. I had to abruptly apply my brakes to reduce my speed to 30MPH to regain control of my vehicle. All this while towing a 36 Feet long camper. This happened 3 times within a 10 mile distance.

NHTSA #11470108

Vehicle front end started to violently shake when hitting small bumps while driving over 55 mph. When this happens, I have to slam on the brakes to get the vehicle back below 40 mph to stop the shaking, then can accelerate back to speed.....only to happen again when hitting a bump. The dealer states that it is worn parts on a vehicle with less than 20,000 miles on it. The vehicle has been at the dealer waiting on backordered parts for over 3 months. Ford is not taking responsibility for the issue. The vehicle is unsafe to drive in it's current condition.

NHTSA #11499492

My vehicle constantly experiences the death wobble meaning front end suspension experiences violent shaking making it difficult to stay the course and won't stop till vehicle comes to a lower speed but imagine I'm going 75 it takes along time to slow down and very scary

NHTSA #11590689

Steering stabilizer or dampener is not functioning. Experiencing death wobble on freeway every 2 miles when driven over 50. Have reported before and ford refused to fix it because they couldn’t repeat it. The stabilizer on this truck has been replaced three times not by ford.

NHTSA #11566709

I hit a rather large bump in the road at highway speeds and the steering wheel and whole truck started to shake and wobble extremely violently and i almost lost control. The only way to stop it was to come to a stop.

NHTSA #11562652

Super Duty death wobble at 60 mph. Slowed down to around 40 mph for it to stop. Very violent shaking of the entire truck.

NHTSA #11552495

The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-350. The contact stated that while his client was driving at slow speeds in a parking area, the vehicle suddenly lost electric power steering functionality. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, who determined that the upper steering column shaft bearings were missing and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 68,000.

NHTSA #11544746

My 2019 F350 has the proverbial “Death Wobble; which Ford knows about and has admitted to. They have stated the steering damper is the fix, which is not a recall but a CSP, and cannot be sourced for an ETA. When I was driving over approximately 50 mph and ran over the change between the road and the bridge the steering wheel began to shake violently, along with the front end of the truck. This has happened multiple times and has gotten progressively worse. Ford Motor Company and my local dealership have offered no solutions. I feel this needs to be upgraded to a recall and Ford needs to requisition the parts immediately before something detrimental happens to someone due to an accident. Also, according to multiple reports online, there have been numerous components that have prematurely worn out on the front end of the Super Duty’s significantly contributing to the horrible steering oscillation-“Death Wobble.” My most current incident was 19 December 2022.

NHTSA #11498137

The problem I have had is when driving above 45 to 55 mph when you go across the bridge control joints or hit a pothole the steering wheel will begin shaking and you have to slow down to get it to stop. When this has happened I have been pulling a 45' fifth wheel trailer and it's hard to control the vehicle, so myself and passengers along with traffic around me are at risk of weather or not I can safely get slowed down to control the vehicle. It has happened without the trailer but it is much easier to control when it happens. I have had it looked at by the dealership where I purchased it and I'm currently waiting for what they say will fix it. When this occurs the there are no warning lights or sensors to let you know anything is wrong nor is there anything afterward. It has been 2 months since the dealership inspected it and was ordering repair part, but still the part isn't in and my vehicle is not fixed. Also the vehicle only has 14,000 miles on it.

NHTSA #11491981

The steering became totally unresponsive and unstable resulting in a very severe front end wobble that did not diminish until the speed of the vehicle was reduced. This caused for some very anxious times as I was afraid I might lose control of the vehicle. This was reported to two Ford dealerships in the area without any assistance with the problem. As I was 500 miles from home and needed to get back home. I researched this condition on the internet as found was was referred to as the Ford Death Wobble. I took it upon myself to have the steering linkage damper replaced at my on expense.

NHTSA #11492668

The steering stabilizer malfunction. We were traveling on the Highway with a six horse trailer when after hitting a bump the truck started the death wobble. Had to slow down to less then 45 before leveling out. It caused swerving into other lanes causing near collision. We had replaced the stabilizer less then 5 000 miles ago when we had the same issue. The dealerships don’t have the part available and we had to replace it again on the side of the road. This is a reoccurring problem with this make of truck. Everyone I know has had this issue. We have the broken part. There was no warnings. It’s ridiculous that Ford is not being held responsible for this issue. It’s dangerous and will eventually end with loss of life for someone. I reported the original incident to you.

NHTSA #11490491

My 2019 F350 is having the death wobble again. First occurred in 2021. Speeds 35-50 shakes truck like it will fall apart. Have to stop vehicle to resume normal driving. Ford fixed once in august 2021. Retuned again in summer/fall 2022. Ford said they wont cover second repair to replace the know left dampener.

NHTSA #11490762

While getting on the freeway my vehicle started to shake violently when I hit about 50 mph. There was no warning. The road surface was kind of rough. The shaking affected the steering wheel so much that it made controlling the vehicle very difficult. I thought a wheel was falling off or we had a blow out. Luckily there was a wide shoulder. Two semis with wide loads (trusses) were able to move to the left lane to avoid hitting me. It traumatized me and my passenger. We could have been killed and no one would have known about the violent shaking we experienced. I usually am towing a horse trailer. I don't know what might have happened if I had horses with me. This is a known problem to Ford. It's referred to as the "death wobble". They have extended the warranty for this but haven't made a recall. The service appointment for this isn't available until December or later! Ford told me I can either not drive it until then, or only drive it under 40 miles per hour, or pay someone to replace the steering dampener (which they would not reimburse). My truck is a 2019 F350 with only 9,000 on it. My husband replaced the defective part and we have it if needed for inspection. At the very least this problem should be highly publicized so if it happens drivers will be able to recognize the problem and try to slow down and hold onto the wheel. We were totally caught off-guard. Owners of the affected trucks should be encouraged to change the part on their own. Ford says there's a part shortage and can't schedule replacement for 3 months. We were able to get the part the same day at Napa. Ford refused to reimburse for it.

NHTSA #11489134

Going down a hill, started to slowdown with traffic and the steering wheel started to shake violently. Had to slowdown quickly to about 10 MPH for it to quit shaking

NHTSA #11488800

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

NHTSA #11486827

The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-350. The contact stated that while driving approximately 65 MPH on a busy highway and hauling an RV, the vehicle and steering wheel suddenly began to violently shake and vibrate causing the contact to nearly lose control of the vehicle. During the trip, the failure had occurred on three separate occasions after driving over changes to the pavement of the road and driving onto a bridge. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the steering dampener was faulty and needed to be replaced. The contact was informed that the part was on back order and the vehicle could not be repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 21,000.

NHTSA #11492711

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.

NHTSA #11480646

Our truck has had several occurances with the "death wobble" that is associated with the following items: Track bar bushing, Damper bracket, Ball joints, Control arms, Shocks, Struts. When we are traveling at a higher rate of speed any bump that we hit can create a uncontrollable wobble that if we do not slow down immediately makes it feel like we will crash.

NHTSA #11490192

Truck front end goes into a violent shaking to the point the truck is uncontrollable unless slowed to a near stop. I have heard this situation referred to as the “death wobble”. It happens at higher speeds ( 50+ mph ) which makes it all the more dangerous. It can happen unexpectedly at any time when vehicle goes through a bumpy spot in the road. It has happened four times in the last 500 miles.

NHTSA #11472187

The truck suddenly started to violently shake on the highway 5 times in a week. After researching I found information on the death wobble which is what I experienced.

When driving over 50 mph, or while driving on a bumpy surface, the entire truck aggressively shakes until you either slow extremely down or stop. This has occurred appropriately 8-10 times.

NHTSA #11525064

experiencing intermittent violent wobble of front suspension/steering. 2 significant events since October 2022. Traveling at highway speed and incurring rough road steering wheel wobbles severally. Only way to stop it is to slow down below approximately 50 mph, however latest event (02/14/23), had to go below 20 mph to get it to stop. very dangerous on the highway. Tractor trailer had to change lanes very quickly to avoid hitting me. Ford dealership is aware of the issue, however they only offer a new steering dampener that has not been available for almost 4 months. Had an independent service center look at the suspension. They found that the dampener is faulty and another suspension joint is showing premature wear.

Several small issues with F-350 but nothing to stop using until yesterday. I was running along about 45 mph and front began to shake and in fact so bad started bouncing about 1’ to 2’ high. I did not brake or speed up but took foot off gas and slowed down to approx 15mph and stopped. I was in traffic so went back to 45 mph and has not acted up since. But this could have been disaster.

Death Wobble, the steering wheel shook violently. I could not control the vehicle and had to stop in the middle of the road to make it quit. This has happened before. It was serviced for this problem once.

NHTSA #11508187

My 2019 F-350 lariat power stroke 23,500 miles has experienced a shaking in the steering on the freeway multiple times previously, it seemed to happen when a bump or uneven part of the road was felt. The last time 1/11/23 it shook uncontrollably on the freeway until the truck was slowed to 20MPH. I had both hands tightly gripped on the steering wheel and could not control it- until the speed was reduced to 20 MPH. Other vehicles on the freeway had to avoid my truck as I had to lower the speed well below the minimum speed limit on the freeway which could have caused a crash. After consulting the dealer and another mechanic the term used for this condition is the death wobble. The truck is unsafe. It was brought in to the authorized Ford dealer in Wisconsin. They said there is a fix for this issue but it’s backordered and has been backordered for sometime. I asked the dealer for a date when I might see this part and was told it’s backordered with no expectation of a date for the part. The truck is not safe to drive. Now I have to pick it up from the dealer without a resolution- basically drive the unsafe truck home and park it until Ford can get me the part.

Steering suspension has been failing over and over for months. Several severe incidents while driving 70+ mph down the road. Complete loss of control of the vehicle, uncontrollable death wobbles. One incident put me in a ditch, while the others were near collisions. First incident - was no longer able to drive above 30mph without sever death wobble. After “repairs”, recreated the issue at 75 mph and I’m unable to drive safely above 35 mph. Ford has confirmed many parts needing replacement but will not take ownership in replacing them. First incident -$5,300. Second incident - nearly $2500. There were no warning lamps, messages, or any notification of failure prior to incident. The entire front end of these vehicles need to be recalled. There is a class action lawsuit for a reason. I’m unable to sell my truck, or drive it do to costly RECURRING repairs. I’m fearful for my life in my 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

Several occurrences of violent sustained steering oscillation at high speeds, also known as death wobble. Front end steering components failing/worn out at 55k miles. Violent shaking of front end on interstate, little to no control of vehicle. The only way to get this frightening death wobble event to stop is to slow down to nearly a stop on the interstate which put driver and passenger at rick or being rear ended or causing another type of accident. Vehicle does not feel safe to drive, every bump or expansion joint in the road is a stress inducing concern when driving. Ford offering steering stabilizer replacement but identified that the truck needs tie rods and a new drag link as well to get this death wobble to stop. Ford should recall these components for safety reasons.

Fuel Filter Failed and Is available for inspection: Driving back from Gloucester Ma to Cohoes NY, pulled into Charlton Ma rest stop on I90 parking in truck area fueling lot noticed fluids leaking from engine compartment, upon further inspection found fuel filter spraying diesel fuel all over engine compartment and components. My life, my passengers and surrounding personnel may have been injured or killed if went un noticed for too long while parking next to fuel pumps when engine was running or driving along I 90. There were no warning lights indicating loss of fuel pressure or any sort of engine light on. Luckily I noticed it before it could get out of hand and happened during a week day during business hours a local ford dealer, IDA Ford in Auburn Ma had a fuel filter kit in stock: They also stated they just had another customer a few days earlier with the same issue. Had to Uber to and from dealer to get parts to repair. Poured water on engine to break down diesel fuel over engine to drive back to NY and not cause a fire. Looking online for a recall and don’t see my year of vehicle but just 2021????

Filled the tank before arriving home, parked on incline nose down. Not very steep. A few hours later there was a puddle of diesel on the driveway and after inspection it seemed it was leaking from the top of tank. I have no other vehicle and this one cost too much to be doing this at 60000 miles. It is dangerous to drive for fire risk but I have no choice. In 55 years I have never had a fuel tank leak on any vehicle. Looking online there have been many instances under the same conditions. There is no condition that a fuel tank should leak.

An OBD2 engine code of P2002 came up, so I took it to my local Ford Dealership. While it was at the dealership, I did a little research and found out that this crack on the DPF filter was a common occurrence on 2017-2020 F250 and F350 Powerstrokes. Ford is aware of this problem but they told me that my warranty would not cover this, as it was a "filter"! This crack is located on the piping right before a flange connection! It is a factory weld that is cracking in every one of this diesel trucks! I was quoted a repair cost of over $6300 ! This is outrageous and I refuse to pay this much for a "filter " because only the dealership can replace it!

We started to have issues with our back up camera sporadically working, images appearing fuzzy and now the camera has gone completely blank - blue screen. We use this pickup truck to plow in the winter and the camera is important for that. Not having a working back up camera is a safety hazard under normal conditions as well. The issue is that Ford has a recall on "certain" 2019 F-350 trucks with back up camera issues WHICH ARE THE EXACT SAME ISSUES that are happening with our back up camera. This can not be a coincidence. I have called the Ford recall line and spoke to a representative who told me he would document my issue and forward the call information on to his manager. He told me to report it to the NHTSA as well. This is absolutely the same issue and we are not happy that they won't do right by us and take care of this issue.

My 2019 F350 has what google and others are calling the death wobble. The entire truck in under full warranty plus bumper to bumper additional coverage. When driving at hwy speed (and interstate) and you drive over bumps, potholes, or railroad tracks the vehicle starts shaking so bad that you can not steer or even stay in your lane. The shaking does not stop until you come to a complete stop. It doesn't happen for all railroad crossing, but those that are rutted.
