High speed wobble when driving over un even pavement such as a transition from asphalt to concrete. if turning slightly while driving 60 - 70 miles/hr and you run over slightly rough pavement, it will start to wobble violently and you have to slow to 25 or 30 miles/hr for it to stop. when you are on a multi lane highway and on the inside lane(s) you have to navigate to the shoulder to slow down and it is very dangerous. there is many internet articles reflecting this exact situation and it is a design defect with the F250. I would hope a recall would be issued to require Ford to fix this problem before someone is killed. Right now the only option available is to buy and after market stabilizer to try and minimize this issue. thanks

Vehicle shakes violently when driving at highway speed 65-70 mph even slower, have to stop almost completely on highways! Very dangerous, as soon front tires hit any imperfections on the road even small pot hole or open joints on the road. This is a pretty known problem on previous trucks '17-'18 problem still on 2020 trucks my start doing it at 39500 miles. Hoping Ford make a recall for this just like they did with the 2018 f250 that I used to have.

My steering wheel is out of orientation by 5 to 10 degrees. there is a shimming in the steering wheel. This is accentuated when i change lanes on the freeway and go over the lane deliniators. If i am on a smooth road on the freeway, my vehicle tracks perfectly staight without and pressure on the steering wheel(hands off, no other vihicles near me. I have less than 15,000 miles. Check mu service record. It is stellar. No accidents. No off road driving. Move my fifth wheel tralir 20 feet to a new space only. Never had the fifth wheel on the road yet. My fifth wheel is an ultra lite design for a F-150. There was a lawsuit for the Death Wobble for the 2019 and earlier models. How many adults and children have to die before it shows up on your radar screen. What are the algorithems for this to be a unhidden issue. Shame on you.

MY BRAND NEW 2020 F250 LARIAT WAS DELIVERED TO MY HOME YESTERDAY. IT WAS DRIVEN ROUGHLY 80 MILES FROM DENVER TO COLORADO SPRINGS BY THE SALESMAN WHO SOLD IT TO ME, BUT IS OTHERWISE UNUSED. I NOTICED LAST NIGHT THAT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE CABLE RUNNING TO THE LEFT REAR WHEEL APPEARS TO BE TOO LONG. AS A RESULT IT HAS A LOOP IN IT THAT IS POSITIONED BETWEEN THE MAIN LEAF SPRINGS AND A SECONDARY SPRING THAT I BELIEVE ENGAGES WHEN THE TRUCK IS FULLY LOADED. IT'S PRETTY OBVIOUS THAT UNDER A FULL LOAD, THE BRAKE CABLE IS AT RISK OF BEING PINCHED BY THE SPRINGS. I HAVE LITTLE DOUBT THAT THE DEALER WILL FIX THIS FOR ME WHEN I ASK, BUT AM ALARMED THAT OTHER SIMILAR TRUCKS MAY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.
