NHTSA Complaint #11288655 — 2019 FORD F-250

DRIVING ON A FREEWAY THE ENTIRE TRUCK STARTED TO SHAKE AND VIBRATE AS IF WE WERE DRIVING ON THE WORST ROAD POSSIBLE AND ALL 4 TIRES HAD JUST BLOWN OUT. WE WERE ABLE TO KEEP CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND SLOW DOWN UNTIL WE COULD PULL OFF THE ROAD AND STOP. DURING OUR TRIP, THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED 4 DIFFERENT TIMES IN THE 2 DAYS WE TRAVELED. WE WERE ABLE TO FINALLY RETURN HOME AND TAKE THE TRUCK TO OUR FORD DEALER. WE WERE TOLD THAT FORD HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND HAS A "TEMPORARY" FIX TO CHANGE THE "STEERING LINKAGE DAMPER" BUT WILL TAKE AT LEAST 4 WEEKS BEFORE THE PART COMES IN. MY VEHICLE IS ONLY ONE YEAR OLD WITH ONLY 4,000 MILES ON IT. WE RESEARCHED THIS AND IT IS KNOWN AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AND HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR YEARS ON THE F250 AND F350, YET I WAS SOLD THIS VEHICLE A YEAR AGO AND I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED ANY RECALL INFORMATION OR MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND WILL LEAD TO SOMEONE HAVING A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR EVEN DEATH.
