Consumer Description

OUR 2018 F-250 SUPER DUTY IS EXPERIENCING THE INFAMOUS "FORD DEATH WOBBLE" DUE TO PARTS USED BY FORD THAT THEY KNOW WERE NOT GOING TO HOLD UP AND WOULD WEAR PREMATURELY. THIS IS CAUSING AN EXTREMELY ROUGH AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WOBBLE IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION AND STEERING WHEEL THAT COULD LEAD TO SERIOUS INJURIES' OR EVEN DEATH DUE TO THE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. ALWAYS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND GENERALLY TRAVELLING ABOVE 50 MPH. ALWAYS HAPPENS AFTER GOING OVER A DIP IN THE ROAD OR A POTHOLE. I HAVE NOT TAKEN A VIDEO BUT THERE ARE PLENTY OF VIDEO'S ON YOUTUBE OF THE SAME THING.
