Consumer Description

WITH LESS THAN A 1,000 MILES ON MY 2018 F-250 THE TRUCK SHOWED SIGNS OF "DEATH WOBBLE" AND HAS BECOME WORSE OVER THE PAST 5,000 MILES. THE EARLY SIGNS HAVE TURNED INTO FULL "DEATH WOBBLE" NOW AND ARE GETTING WORSE. THE TRUCK IS BECOMING INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL AFTER HITTING BUMPS IN THE ROAD, TYPICALLY CROSSING BRIDGES.
