Description of the problem	At about 45 mph after hitting rough patch on a bridge surface i experienced what is referred to as the ford death wobble. The steering shook so violently i had zero control of the truck. The only recourse was to immediately brake to almost a stop before being able to regain control. Fortunately i was in a rural area of eastern or and had no traffic around me. Had there been traffic it could have easily led to a collision or another vehicle having to take evasive action. The loss of steering control started when crossing a concrete surfaced bridge that had a fairly rough surface. The road plane was lightly sloped to the right. The vehicle is a 2017 f250 super duty diesel. The loss of steering control happened on september 13, 2019, the next time it occurred was two days later at about the same speed. This time i was slowing down so the loss of control was less significant. There have been no modifications to the truck, everything is stock. The local ford dealership does all the maintenance. There has been no damage, collisions or rough use of this truck. The majority of the mileage has been around town, with about 20% being highway use.
