One problem related to front suspension hub has been reported for the 2013 Ford F-250. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I was driving 75 mph down the highway, ran over a patch if wavy concrete road when the front end of my f250 began to shake violently. Out of nowhere, I was not in control of my truck and simply along for the ride. Thank god for alert truck drivers around me that gave me space when they saw I was struggling to regain control. I used 15' of lane, side to side, to get my truck back under control but the only thing that worked was taking my foot off the accelerator. Once I reached 35 mph, the shaking ceased and I was able to move to the side of the highway to determine the cause of the issue. Imediately after getting to the side of the road, I checked the tires and removed the hub caps to confirm every wheel lug was tight and secure. No play in the wheels side to side nor any visible irregularities anywhere. With reluctance, I drove on the service road and the truck ran smooth. I eased back onto the highway and the truck ran smooth. When I researched my event on the web this evening, I found the issue of "death wobble". I will be contacting the dealership tomorrow, but based on what I've read from numerous reviews and comments, I'm not the only one with the problem, nor should I expect an admission from Ford or expect them to take responsibility for the issue. It surprises me that an issue this grave affects 2005-2017 year models and nothing has been done to remedy the defect. It appears that Ford is placing the blame back onto the customer's maintenance schedule and tire alignments. How can this problem which began in the 2005 model still plague my 2012 model? what can be done to rectify the issue and prevent this from happening to others?.
