Consumer Description
WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH MY TRUCK'S STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE. IT ALSO FELT AS IF THE WHOLE TRUCK WAS SHAKING. I DECREASED MY SPEED TO APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH AND MY TRUCK QUIT SHAKING. THIS HAPPENED ON 02/23/2020. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES SINCE I HAVE HAD MY TRUCK. ONE OTHER TIME I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I WAS ABLE TO SLOW DOWN AND THE TRUCK QUIT SHAKING. THE OTHER TIME I WAS DRIVING ON A STATE HIGHWAY AND I WAS IN A CURVE. THE TRUCK AND STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE. I BRIEFLY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND WENT INTO THE LEFT LANE. I SLOWED DOWN AND THE SHAKING STOPPED. I WAS ABLE TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I WILL BE CONTACTING THE DEALER TOMORROW MORNING ON 02/24/2020. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHEN MY TRUCK BEGAN TO SHAKE. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH, IT SEEMS THAT FORD HAS A PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES AND MY TRUCK SEEMS TO HAVE A DEATH WOBBLE. I AM THE ONLY OWNER OF MY TRUCK AND IT HAS LESS THAN 7600 MILES. MY TRUCK IS FULLY STOCK WITH THE 18 INCH RIMS AND STOCK TIRES.
