 Description of the problemThis truck has a death wobble,it's a nice truck,but going down the road the front end shakes so violently that it is almost impossible to keep it under control it does it with or without a trailer. I contacted ford headquarters and was given a case number and took it to a ford dealer where they aligned it after i had new tires,track bar ball joint,steering stabilizer,u-joints,and front shocks installed. It cost me$2000. 00 for this to be completed. Well sorry to say it was a band-aid fix. After 2500 miles it is back and worse than ever i have once again contacted ford where i have received yet another case number,i am to take it back in on 3/19/19 so they can look at once again. This is an ongoing issue and has been for years. Google death wobble there are alot of videos on this subject. This is a safty issue i don't understand why this is not being taken more seriously. Ford says they must determine if it is a maintenance before they can move forward. This is a $50,000. 00 truck that isn't worth a plug nickel in it's current condition. I use this vehicle for my business so as of now i am shut down. This wobble happens anywhere from 35-70mph and is very scary to drive. It is currently out of service. Please help me
