 Description of the problemDeath wobble occurred at around13k miles. It is triggered by hitting a bump at 45mph or faster. Whole front end shakes so badly your only option is to slam on the brakes and swerve onto the shoulder. Shaking goes away at 25mph. Dealership could not find a visible problem, but did experience the wobble. Mechanic was terrified. Ford hq told them to randomly change components until the problem was fixed. It did go away until now. Truck has 22k miles on it and the death wobble is back. Dealerships cant see anything wrong but wont drive truck long enough to hit the 'right' bump to trigger the wobble, so wont re-fix it. This is a catastrophic failure of the front end, and ford claim not to know anything about it. Pa dealership told me they had heard about it being an issue, and other people on line are experiencing the same thing. I am terrified to drive over 35mph in case i hit the bump that triggers it. I have already had a truck and several cars swerve to avoid hitting me. This problem must be rectified, or someone will be injured. The vehicle has been well maintained and has no modifications. Wobble does not occur every time i hit a bump. It seems to be certain bumps that trigger it.
