general problems of the 2009 Ford F-350

My truck has the death wobble for the second time. I took it to red mccombs Ford in san antonio, texas and they charged me to fix what is an inherently bad design flaw in the f350 that I own. The wobble stopped and has now reappeared. The death wobble is real. I want it fixed for free or I want Ford to buy my truck for top dollar.

On March 23, 2012, while towing my RV on i16, the tread on the left rear tire of my 2009 f350 peeled off. My factory installed tires were continental contitrac lt275/65r18. According to continental these tires were not a part of recall #11t002000 and yet, given the exact same failure, I wonder if my tires should have been included in the recall. The truck had very low mileage, the tread still had a depth of 11 and the bed load was only 2700 lbs(using cat weight measurements. ) of the truck's 4000 lb capacity. The tire pressure, before leaving 2 hours earlier, was at the recommended 80 lbs. After talking to my Ford dealer in austin, TX I learned that there was notification 11b24 concerning these tires. Had I been notified about this I would have taken action. To this end I had all 5 tires replaced before I again towed the RV. While I was able to regain control of the truck, I could not take the chance of tempting fate another time. As the truck left quarter panel was damaged I did start a claim for repair with continental. Based on any response from you I will also request pro-rated compensation for the replacement tires. I saved the failed tire and continental has requested that I send it to them. I will do this within the next week.
