Consumer Description

I had the F-250 Death Wobble. I hit a bump at 70mph and the entire truck started shaking violently. It didn’t stop shaking until I slowed down to 30mph on the highway. This had the potential to be a life threatening accident if I would have lost control, especially since this happens at high speeds. Thousands of people have had the death wobble, why won’t the NHTSA mandate Ford to fix this?
