Consumer Description

I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH WOBBLE AND VIBRATION ON MY F-350 FOR YEARS NOW AND IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. IT HAS ALWAYS SEEMS TO OCCUR BETWEEN 45-55 MPH. THEY FIRST REPLACED BALL JOINT, THEN I WAS TOLD IT'S THE TIRES, GOT NEW TIRES. IT WAS ALWAYS JUST A LITTLE VIBRATION AND PLAY IN THE WHEEL. NOW WHEN I HIT A BUMP, A FROST HEAVE OR LIKE A BRIDGE JOINT I GET EXTREME SHAKE AND VIBRATION IN THE STEERING WHEEL THAT MAKES THE VEHICLE HARD TO CONTROL. THEY MOST RECENTLY REPLACED STABILIZER BUT IT STILL OCCURS. THE EFFECT SEEMS TO BE WORSE WHEN I HAVE MY TRUCK CAMPER ON IT. STARTED TO DO RESEARCH TODAY ON IT AND DISCOVERED THIS SO CALL DEATH WOBBLE COMPLAINT. I AM FILING A COMPLAINT TOO BECAUSE IT ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT TODAY AS I HAD NO CONTROL AND WAS FORCED TO SUDDENLY SLOW DOWN TODAY AFTER I HIT A BRIDGE JOINT.
