Death wabble

Asked by GuruQDC2G Nov 11, 2019 at 10:06 PM about the 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty Lariat Crew Cab 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2019 (10 month old) F250 super duty
and on the way home from a trip to Illinois I
had TWO instances while going 75mph the
front drivers side tire started jumping viciously
and the steering wheel shaking violently side
to side!!! On interstate!!! VERY SCARY. What is
the deal with this?? Is ford acknowledging the
problem??? I see many complaints. If it’s
called the “death wabble” that speaks
volumes about the seriousness of this issue.
Is this a recall??? I have 38k miles on it, I’m
sure they’ll tell me it’s out of warranty. Any
suggestions????

There is a long thread here on CG's on this subject. Read up online as there can be multiple causes of this problem. One solution is a heavy duty, after market track bar.

I do not think Ford is taking it very seriously. Mostly they blame the tire air pressure or worn tires.
