Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When the truck reaches speeds over 60 MPH, the vehicle will go into an uncontrollable shake, the death wobble. The driver looses partial control and has to fight to keep the truck in a single lane for safety until the truck speed gets under 45 MPH. There is no warning for the wobble. We have checked the alignment, the tires, the tie rods, the suspension and steering, brakes and bearings and all are in mechanical order. We drive on a highway daily with traffic speeds from 60-75mph. I do not have photos, but we do have a short video of it happening.”

It was 100+ degrees and we had to wait for over 3 hour for road assistance to arrive. Our truck is a 2011 with only 42,215 miles on it. Ford doesn't know exactly what caused this to happen, but needed to replace DPF pressure sensor & filter and all egt sensors. This was very dangerous for us. Our truck gave no warning and our truck has been maintained for all routine services and recalls, no assistance offer from factory. …”

NHTSA complaint #11243708, filed 2019-08, 91,000 miles“My low mileage 2011 F350 has what has been called a DEATH SHAKE . If while driving at highway speeds I hit a bump the wrong way the front wheels seem to go in non-parallel directions, causing the vehicle to bounce from side to side. During this time there is no control or steering possible. The goal is simply to hang on and not get thrown from the seat. (The bouncing from side to side has destroyed my relatively new shocks.) Braking hard to slow the vehicle will eventually realign the wheels and allow me to regain control. This has been happening for over a year. …”
