Within a span of 30 min. I experienced 3 uncontrollable steering oscillations also known as the "death wobble." The DW experienced, the speeds were around 50 miles per hour. Less than that, the aforementioned oscillations were not experienced. Reason for the 30 min time frame was due to making it back home from the first occurrence. First oscillation was on smooth road, the other two were on less than smooth roads.

I spoke with Ford about the service bulletin for the EGR Cooler that expired in April 2023. They said because of the low mileage, to contact you to see if the recall, (21M04), could be added back to this vehicle for repairs.

This truck has never stopped well. Seems like the ABS coasts to a stop no matter how hard I stand on the brakes.

It’s doing the death wobble and has almost made me lose control on the interstate and seriously could have had my 9month daughter and I killed.

While traveling down the highway at the speed limit, the truck hit a bump and started to shake violently. I slowed down and pulled over to resecure a freezer that was shook loose. We continued on and when I went to make the next right turn, one of the straps, which was sliced during the death wobble, snapped. The freezer slid and seesawed over a cooler. The corner of the freezer came through the rear window striking my wife in the arm and head. I have brought the truck to multiple shops, replaced steering stabilizer, shock, and tires to no avail.
