Description of the problem | I have a 2017 ford f250 super cab with approximately 28,600 miles on it. I've been experiencing the front end oscillation (death wobble) for about the last 5,000 miles. It occurs when travelling over approximately 60 mph and when the vehicle hits certain bumps in the road or expansion joints at road bridges. Vehicle shakes side to side uncontrollably and only stops with an immediate braking to around 35 mph. This is a very dangerous problem that myself and many other ford super duty truck owners are experiencing which could lead to major accidents, injury, or death, if it hasn't already. |
