Description of the problem | I was driving my 2009 f-250 traveling about 40 to 45 mph and after hitting a rough patch of road the wheels began to shake out of control for about 20 seconds. I have had my truck to the dealership for the same problem on 6 plus times. Ford states that it was a tire pressure issue....... Bs!.... Bs! Each time ford has my truck they say we have fixed the problem and it should not occur again. The last time i left ford and spent 165. 00$ on a damper rod to fix this problem i drove 18 miles down the road and went into a "death wobble again. I turned the truck around and it is sitting at ford as i write this post. After reviewing this matter on line i have noticed that there are more f-250's with the same issue. A federal recall needs to be done and fast. Several times that the "death wobble " as occurred to me , i have been lucky so far to drive out of it with out a problem. I might not be so lucky next time. A federal recall needs to be done fast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
