    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…

    This is not an isolated incident with our trucks, it's a nationwide problem that is very very dangerous. In a 10 mile ride it would happen 3-4x at 70 to 75mph hitting the slightest bump, the truck would violently shake. I would have to slow down to 20 mph for it to stop. Very difficult on a highway.*dt*jb

    Truck shakes uncontrollably in a 10 mile ride it would happen 3-4x at 70 to 75mph hitting the slightest bump, the truck would violently shake. I would have to slow down to 20 mph for it to stop. Very difficult on a highway. Very unsafe. I have a video to submit it is very hard to show shaking off a truck in pictures. *bf please see attached video. I have filed 6 complaints for 6 different trucks.*jb

    When driving down the highway the truck will start to shake otherwise know as the death wobble. This has happened 4 times. Took it into the dealer and they told me i need new tires and need a new steering damper per tsb-19-2392. They said it would be 400.00 for the part. My ruck is under warranty and i purchased the ford protection plan. This is not safe for us to drive. It shakes uncontrollable at freeway speeds

    Speeds greater than 70 mph and hitting small bump causes truck front tires/drive suspension to shake uncontrollably. Also known as a death wobble.

    Four valve stems have been replaced for corrosion and leaking in the last 2 months on 3 of my 6 wheels. Tends to happen over night. Tire is fine when parked then next day little to no air in tire.

    I own a 2018 f 350 dual rear wheel pickup. I have had leaking tires/rims for several months now. My own research has shown this to be a continuing problem and have had the truck to the dealer several times without resolution. Two of the tires still leak a lot and 2 of the tires leak slower. The inner two rear wheels do not leak likely because they are steel rims, and not the aluminum ones connected to a steel tpms…

    Aluminum wheel valve stem leaking - tire loosing approximately 10 psi per day. Tpms alarm notified me of a problem on highway when pressure reached 50 psig (spec =65) but identified the wrong tire because the sensors are incorrectly mapped. Apparently a this is a common failure on the 2017 and newer ford f350 drw trucks as indicated here and in other online forums:…
