“I have the death wobble problem on my super duty truck and it's happening every day all the time when I'm bringing on more than 45 or 55 MPH and I hit a hole on the road I'm afraid to bribe my truck.”
NHTSA complaint #11323823, filed 2020-05, 65 miles“Driving on the highway at speeds between 65-75 MPH, when you hit a bump, or any rough patch of road, the truck shakes violently in the front end. I have heard this referred to as the 'death wobble'. This has been happening periodically over the years I have owned the truck. Despite new tires, alignment, shocks, brakes, etc., the truck still has this wobble. There are two spots on the highway I travel within 15 minutes of my house this happens every time I drive the truck. Both are where the road transitions to a bridge overpass.”
NHTSA complaint #11320672, filed 2020-04, 86,000 miles“The ignition sometimes turns off by itself. When attempting to start vehicle the ignition will get stuck in the far on position. If you don't notice this and start to drive and hit a bump the key will spring back to the off position causing power loss. The key also gets stuck in the ignition and not able to remove it. This has been going on for awhile and have not seen any recalls on it. Today I started my vehicle and did not notice the key stuck in the far on position. I drove away from y residence and hit a small bump in the road. …”
NHTSA complaint #10993283, filed 2017-06, 53,000 miles“While driving my 2010 Ford f250 super duty on the highway I drove over a bump in the road. The truck began to shake violently. It felt like it was going to fall apart while still in motion. I tried to hit the brake but that seemed to exacerbate the problem. I tried to adjust the steering wheel in hopes to align some defunct component. Nothing seemed to help except to let off the gas and attempt to control the vehicle and avoid a potential fatal accident. This really was a frightening event, it was all I could do to maintain a safe distance around me so not to collide with other drivers.”
NHTSA complaint #10838463, filed 2016-02, 96,877 miles“When attempting to start the vehicle. The ignition switch gets stuck in the on position and does not release to the normal position. Getting stuck causes the heater and the radio or any other electronic device inside the vehicle not to work. To make these devices work, you have to manually turn the ignition one notch towards the driver. This happens all the time when attempting to start the vehicle.”
