“When the vehicle speed is between 40-45 MPH the vehicle has a noticeable vibration. I've had the vehicle checked and have the lifetime balance/rotation and alignment with firestone. I have also taken it to the Ford dealer and they said there is nothing wrong with it. Continues to do this since I've owned it, bought used from carmax.”
NHTSA complaint #11270552, filed 2019-10, 18,000 miles“I experienced death wobble while driving approximately 70mph after hitting a rough patch of straight road on the highway. Extremely violently shaking! I ended up in the shoulder of the road. I could not control the truck until I got to a near complete stop. There was a total loss of control. Miraculously avoided a wreck on the highway.”
NHTSA complaint #11141615, filed 2018-10, 29,500 miles“The reductant heater recall needs to extend to at least my 2016 truck. They have had excessive failures. My last truck was included in the recall (warranty extension-program 18m01). This recall was given in 2018 and they should have included more than just 2012 to 2015.”
NHTSA complaint #11278223, filed 2019-11, 54,000 miles“2016 Ford f350 entire rear window exploded upon entering vehicle and shutting door (door was shut normally, not slammed).

Temperature / weather was a clear day approximatly 69 degrees.”
NHTSA complaint #11205761, filed 2019-05, 30,000 miles“Several events during acceleration after slowing (as for a light that turned green while approaching) the engine goes to full throttle (more power than normally available) and it requires full hard braking for an extended period of time, after an audible pop it responds. The hand book addresses this briefly, the dealer gives no answers and states the vehicle is safe. There is no interference from a floor mat ( this would only restrict the pedal going full anyway). …”
