 Description of the problem10/19/2018, at 54 mph, on a smooth, 4 lane freeway at 4:30 am, my truck began shaking and vibrating violently as though i was driving on a rolling flat tire. I immediately let off the gas to slow down as quickly as i could without braking; although difficult to steer, i was able to get the truck over to the shoulder of the road to inspect it. I could not determine there was anything wrong with the truck or any evidence i unknowingly ran over something. Later that morning, called 3 ford dealerships to see if i could get my truck in for inspection, which all 3 told me this issue is know as the ford death wobble. I was told that my truck couldn't be seen until the following friday. I contacted my local tire shop whom i have done business with all my fleet trucks and trust their experience in suspension, tire, brake and shock services. The manager told me the same thing about the ford death wobble. He said he would be happy to look at the truck and make sure nothing was loose, broken and that the alignment was correct. That all checked out fine. After researching this, i learned that this is common for the super duty trucks and apparently ford is not doing anything to correct it. This is an extremely dangerous situation and i hope that the nhtsa takes this issue seriously and becomes involved in the remedy of this problem.
