Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING MY 2009 F-250 TRAVELING ABOUT 40 TO 45 MPH AND AFTER HITTING A ROUGH PATCH OF ROAD THE WHEELS BEGAN TO SHAKE OUT OF CONTROL FOR ABOUT 20 SECONDS. I HAVE HAD MY TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE SAME PROBLEM ON 6 PLUS TIMES. FORD STATES THAT IT WAS A TIRE PRESSURE ISSUE.......BS!.... BS! EACH TIME FORD HAS MY TRUCK THEY SAY WE HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM AND IT SHOULD NOT OCCUR AGAIN. THE LAST TIME I LEFT FORD AND SPENT 165.00$ ON A DAMPER ROD TO FIX THIS PROBLEM I DROVE 18 MILES DOWN THE ROAD AND WENT INTO A "DEATH WOBBLE AGAIN. I TURNED THE TRUCK AROUND AND IT IS SITTING AT FORD AS I WRITE THIS POST. AFTER REVIEWING THIS MATTER ON LINE I HAVE NOTICED THAT THERE ARE MORE F-250'S WITH THE SAME ISSUE. A FEDERAL RECALL NEEDS TO BE DONE AND FAST. SEVERAL TIMES THAT THE "DEATH WOBBLE " AS OCCURRED TO ME , I HAVE BEEN LUCKY SO FAR TO DRIVE OUT OF IT WITH OUT A PROBLEM. I MIGHT NOT BE SO LUCKY NEXT TIME. A FEDERAL RECALL NEEDS TO BE DONE FAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *TR
