Description of the problem | When i hit a bump or expansion joint over 45 mph my 2017 ford f250 goes into a death wobble. I have had it to the dealer 3 times now. I know ford has issued a tsb #18-2268 with replacement parts to try to fix the problem. On my 3rd trip to the dealer they replaced the parts included in the tsb except for a new steering stabilizer. I was told they are on backorder and they needed to try these other steps first. After driving home from the dealer today i still experience vibration in the steering wheel. Didnt go into the death wobble today but suspect it will happen again with the vibration still there. |
