2014 Ford F-250 REGULAR CAB - Ratings, Complaints and Recalls

"death wobble. i did not know this was a thing until it happened to me and i found out its been a problem on ford trucks for over 15 years. my entire truck including the steering wheel shook violently on 5 different occasions. i'm scared to drive my 100k truck now. i brought to dealership thinking it came from them working on my truck and they informed me that this has been a issue that ford refuses to recall and there's been multiple lawsuits. they suggested i file a complaint with this org."

"while driving down the highway at 75 i hit an uneven bump in the road and the vehicles front end started to vibrate and quickly became violent shaking of the trucks front end causing me to lose control of the vehicle and almost cause a major multicar accident on the interstate. i ended up almost hitting the guard rail on the side of the road but everyone was ok. i thought the whole front end came apart and had to get out of the vehicle on the side of the interstate to inspect the front and upon doing so almost got hit by a passing vehicle. after researching this problem i found thousands and thousands of complaints on f-250s for this same issue. it is unbelievable nothing has been done to remedy this problem when it seems it has been a known problem for many years. thank god i didn't but if i would have got hit by the passing car and died my wife and children would have been fatherless because of negligence on ford and them absolutely knowing about this problem and doing nothing about it. in the end my family would have lost a husband/father because he bought a ford. that is just insane to think about being a reality. why is nothing being done about this? is ford paying off the nhtsa to not demand a recall on these trucks? there are thousands and thousands of complaints on this site for this issue. how many does it take or does it take a certain number of deaths before it matters? please someone do something about this!"

"on two different occasions while driving on the highway ( approximately 60 to 65) when i passed over an expansion joint the steering wheel and entire truck started to shake violently and out of control - it was like it hit some harmonic balance and would not stop until i got hard on the brakes and slowed down to approximately 35 mph. ( not fun to do in the fast lane of a highway) this happened two times once in feb 2023 and again in june 2023"

"driving at 55 mph and hit small bump in the road and front end started shaking violently. had to come to a complete stop to get it to quit"

"the contact owns a 2014 ford f-250. the contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the front-end of the vehicle was shaking violently. there were no warning lights illuminated. the contact called the local dealer but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to nhtsa. the approximate failure mileage was 60,000."

"while breaking quickly due to another group of vehicles suddenly breaking, my truck began to shake violently similar to symptoms noted in the repeated reports concerning death wobble. my tires have less than 10,000 miles and the truck has had the alignment checked in the last 12 months. it is important to note that the steering shook so violently that it came out of my hands. this could have caused a major accident or worse for a less skilled motorist."

"i experienced the death wobble in a 2014 f250 while driving 60-65 mph on highway through memphis. wobble initiated by hitting a pot hole."

"unknown! this is the 2nd ford f250 that i've purchased brand new. i had no clue what the issue was until visiting with fellow ford f250 owners. low and behold, the "ford death wobble". i don't understand why there has not been a recall on this before now. after researching, i've learned there was even a class action lawsuit filed against ford in 2019! what on earth is wrong with ford?! i love my truck, but not enough to continue buying a ford product knowing this is an issue that they don't want to fix!!! i'm so glad i was informed by friends with the same issues and know it's not just "an alignment" issue! shame on you ford for refusing to address or acknowledge this issue!!!!! i pray that i don't have an accident due to the "death wobble" that the ford trucks have.....but at least it is documented that i have the same issues that over 1200 other ford truck owners have experienced and complained about......i wonder how many others are out there that don't know it's called the "death wobble" and they keep returning to have it repaired! i noticed this incident with my truck in 2015! how sad that it took nearly 7 years for me to discover the real issue!"

"the contact owns a 2014 ford f-250. the contact stated that while driving over a bump at approximately 70 mph, the front end was shaking violently. after the vehicle decelerated to approximately 40 mph, the vehicle stopped shaking. there were no warning lights illuminated. the contact called an independent mechanic and was informed to contact nhtsa. the local dealer was not contacted. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified. the approximate failure mileage was 59,000."

"my 2014 ford f-250 started developing a death wabble when on rough highways doing over 45mph. three or four times i took it to ford service tucson at 22nd street and technician changed steering box, ball joints and generally looked it over. the other day the death wabble was every 5 miles on highway 83 which is a little rough but no potholes. took the truck in yesterday and they couldn’t find a problem. please be advised when this happens the truck is out of control. i need to hit my brakes to about 25 mph and the shaking then stops."
