Description of the problem	While accelerating up to a cruising speed on a local interstate, the steering wheel and front end began to shake violently, severely limiting my ability to safely control the vehicle (a/k/a a "death wobble") . I had to take my foot off the accelerator in the middle lane of an interstate (with a speed limit of 70 mph) and move carefully over to the right hand shoulder to bring the vehicle to a stop. The issue has persisted despite having my tires balanced and front end aligned. I took my truck to a local ford dealer for another warranty item on 2/3-4/2020 and requested that this problem be looked into as well. I was advised by the service manager that the truck needed "an entire new front end" at a cost of over $1,800 as it was something covered under the extended warranty we have on the truck (up to 75,000 miles).
