 Description of the problemI'm experiencing what many, many other ford super duty truck owners have been experiencing since about 2005 commonly known as the "death wobble". At speeds above 45 miles per hour, when the truck goes across a rough (washboard) bit of road or a bridge joint, the front end sometimes shakes violently which also causes the steering wheel to shake violently until you can bring the vehicle to a stop, which is not easy. This is a very serious safety issue, which could cause loss of control resulting in injury to passengers as well as other drivers on the road. In the research i have done, it appears that ford has done very little to correct this problem for consumers. I have mentioned the problem to the dealership where i purchased the truck new twice now and they say they cannot find anything wrong and cannot duplicate the problem in a test drive. I have only 26,000 miles on the truck and the problem seems to be getting worse. Have had it aligned twice and tires rotated regularly. No unusual wear. My wife refuses to drive the truck and i'm not too excited about it myself. Will it take injuries and deaths to force ford into admitting there is a problem and fix it?
