Consumer Description
2011 F350 4X4 DUAL REAR WHEEL LARIAT. EVERYONE CALLS IT THE "SUPER DUTY DEATH WOBBLE" FORD HAS NO PLANS TO FIX. STARTED AT 30K MILES, REPLACED ALL KNOWN WORN PARTS AND SUGGESTED PARTS LIKE EVERYONE ELSE - STILL DOING IT. YOUTUBE VIDEOS SHOW VIOLENT SHAKE TO THE POINT YOUR HEAD CAN SMACK THE SIDE WINDOWS. FRONT END ON HIGHWAY HITS SLIGHT BUMP LIKE ON OVER PASS SHAKES SO VIOLENTLY IT CAN BREAK THE FRONT END WHEEL TIRES AND EVERYTHING ELSE.. CHANGED TIRES, STABILIZER SHOCK, ALIGNMENTS. RECENTLY THIS PAST WEEK ON I75 IN OHIO IT HAPPENED 1/2 DOZEN TIMES @ 65 TO 70 MPH SHOOK SO HARD YOU CANNOT CONTROL LOCK THE BRAKES DOWN HARD TO 30 MPH JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE ON THE NET SAYS. NEARLY CAUSING WRECKS ON THE FREEWAY. HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING. TOTALLY STOCK $55K TRUCK. DEALER SAYS NO TSB OR RECALL. BUT FORD DOES KNOW ABOUT IT AND SAYS IT "MAY HELP" TO CHECK STABILIZER SHOCK. EVERYONE HAS DONE THAT. GOOGLE SUPER DUTY DEATH WOBBLE IT AND SEE VIDEOS. MY FIRST EVER ONLINE COMPLAINT. THIS FORD TRUCK IS INSANELY DANGEROUS. AT DEALER NOW WITH NO SOLUTION. I DISCOVERED BY SWITCHING INTO 4WHD IT WILL STOP WHICH TELLS ME IT IS INTERNAL CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS BECAUSE 4WD WILL BIND THE FRONT END UP ENOUGH TO PRELOAD SUSPENSION. IT GOT ME HOME BUT THE WIFE WILL NEVER RIDE IN IT AGAIN! *TR
