I was driving at 65 mph on the freeway when all of a sudden the vehicle starts shaking uncontrollably. I had practically no control of the vehicle as it was swerving all over the road. All I could do was hold onto the steering wheel and slow down as I veered into the grass median between the two freeways. I had my 12 year old daughter in the car when this happens and its absolutely unacceptable for a 70k vehicle to be this unsafe. Ive contacted Ford and they pretend as if this isnt an issue but if they dont get this fixed people will die. This has now happened twice within a weeks time on a 2019 Ford with 33k miles on it.

I have a 2017 Ford F-350 super duty. Over the last two months I have had two situations during acceleration on a highway where the vehicle almost shakes/vibrates apart on the front end. I have reported the issue to Ford two times now. When it first occurred in Nov 2019 with 19k miles on it, they told me they never heard of this issue. When it happened again on the 29th of December I took it back into the dealer and mentioned that I almost lost control of the truck and the wife refuses to drive it on a highway. They admitted there is an issue. Either my truck or their design is unsafe. Massive wobble/vehicle vibration - if I was in a corner I would have been in an accident.

Submission from constituent re issues with Ford F-350 truck (full document not imaged). The dealer had the consumers vehicle for 12 days. The vehicle was returned to him damaged. When he attempted to start the truck, there was metallic engine rattle. He shut the truck off and inspected the engine, but found no problem. As the consumer drove home, the truck stalled several times, the transmission would not shift properly and the steering wheel started to shake violently at 30 mph. The consumer also stated the head lights did not provide adequate lighting of the road, the seat belts did not retract properly; they would tightened as he was driving, which prevented him from moving, there cruise control did not engage properly, it was difficult to maneuver the steering wheel, the fuel gauge was not reading accurately, there were noises coming from the drive train, the emergency brake was inoperative, the vehicle severely pulled to the right, the engine lacked torque and power, the suspension was not adequate for the vehicle, every time he hit a pot hole or bump in the road, he would loose steering ability and the tires would start bouncing. It would take too long for the vehicle to take off, when the accelerator was applied, there was an instant shudder from the vehicle, when he applied the accelerator pedal.

Brakes: brakes fade easily and will pull to the left. Brakes also shake and shudder the whole vehicle and surge grabbing and ungrabbing when coming to a stop. The steering wheel vibrates and brake pedal pulsates. Brakes began problem with very few miles never loaded or pulling. Results in unsafe braking. Seat belt: drivers seatbelt hangs down and gets caught in bottom of door. You shut your door, fasten the belt not knowing it is stuck in door. In sudden stops, the belt pulls free with much slack remaining possibly allowing your body to go through windshield. Belt twists very easily, and bottom pivot/anchor turns easily allowing belt to hang down in door. Must fiddle with it each time exiting the vehicle and must double check it is not stuck in door. Transmission: automatic transmission did not disengage in cold weather causing vehicle to stall at intersection nearly causing accident several times. Transmission also shifts in and out of gear while going into overdrive erratically. It will go in and out of overdrive several time withing a second or two causing the vehicle and passengers to jerk back and forth suddenly and unexpectedly.
