    When driving my 2017 ford f350 pickup truck at a speed over 55 mph and hit a bump in the road, my steering wheel will jerk violently left and right until i apply the brakes and reduce my speed to 30 mph or less. It can occur on a bumpy road, washboard gravel , concrete expansion joints on the highway, dips, or when transitioning on or off a bridge. I've gotten the violent shaking on both straight roads and corners.…

    While driving on the interstate i hit an uneven piece of pavement which caused my steering wheel to begin shaking violently. I immediately decelerated in attempt to regain control and maintain lane position. It is a reoccurring problem. Every time i see a bump, pothole, uneven pavement, etc, in my path, i grip the steering wheel as tightly as possible and brace for the worst. I have researched the problem and seems…

    While driving the speed limit on the freeway and hitting a "rough" patch, the truck's wheels then begin shaking, causing the whole truck to violently shake. There is a significant lost of control of the vehicle. The shaking won't subside to regain control until the speed drops below 50 mph or lower. The vehicle has very limited response to turning when the shaking is happening. This seems to be similar to what i've…

    While driving at freeway speeds i went across an overpass. Coming off the bridge i went over the bridge expansion joint and cased my pickup to immediately start an extremely violent "death wobble". I had to apply brake and slow down to 35 mph before it would come out of it. I have made an appt with the dealer that i purchased the truck from new however they were extremely non-nonchalant about my problem. In doing…

    I noticed the steering was getting sloppy at about 35,000 miles when driving at highway speeds on uneven road surfaces and going over bridge joints. Two nights ago i was driving at 57mph when i came off a bridge and the truck began to shake violently causing me to slow down quickly and pull to the road shoulder to avoid being rear ended. At about 30mph the shaking subsided. Researching the issue on line has led me…

    The truck does the death wobble (front end bounces side to side) at highway speeds. It's been in 5 times for the same problem, and it continues. I'm scared to have anyone in my family drive the truck.

    Steering · Suspension

    While traveling at 65-70 mph on the highway, i drove over a rough patch of road and the steering wheel and front end of the truck began to violently shake. Instinctually, i immediately let off the accelerator to slow down which seemed to add to the forceful shaking by causing the entire vehicle to sway from side to side. I'm a healthy sized 210 lb man and i struggled to maintain control of the steering wheel to…
