Description of the problem | Catastrophic front end suspension failure again. Death wobble every 13k miles. Ford have attempted to fix this 3 times. Just hit 48 k and death wobble is back for the 4th time. Why has there been no recall on such a serious defect? When death wobble happened this time at 65 mph, i could not keep the truck in my lane due to a curve in the road. I forced another car onto the hard shoulder. Luckily, they had a hard shoulder to go in. Traffic behind me had to unexpectedly jam on their brakes as i had to slow to 25mph. This is a serious issue that the government must get involved with. I offer my truck to anybody working in nhtsa to test for themselves to experience how terrifying this is. (please don't take your children with you). Get ford to fix this now. Please do something immediately. Just read all the complaints. |
