Complaint Summary

STEERING

Owner Narrative

My 2004 F250 has developed the "Death Wobble" that is normally associated with newer models, but the shudder at or around 40-45mph is identical to the described problems of the newer models in the class action lawsuit and tech bulletins published by Ford. Older models need to be considered in the tech bulletins, customer satisfaction programs, and fixed by ford despite being 1 year older than the current guidelines.

Owner-submitted narrative on file with NHTSA. Complaint narratives are self-reported and have not been verified.
