| I was driving my 2009 f-250 travling about 40 to 45 mph and after hitting a rough patch of road the wheels began to shake out of control for about 20 seconds. i have had my truck to the dealership for the same problem on 6 plus times. ford states that it was a tire pressure issue.......bs!.... bs! each time ford has my truck they say we we have fixed the problem and it should not occur again. the last time i left ford and spent 165.00$ on a damper rod to fix this problem i drove 18 miles down the road and went into a death wobble again. i turned the truck around and it is sitting at ford as i write this post. after reviewing this matter on line i have noticed that there are more f-250's with the same issue. a federal recall needs to be done and fast. several times that the death wobble as occured to me , i have been lucky so far to drive out of it with out a problem. i might not be so lucky next time. a federal recall needs to be done fast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | |||
