This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Traveling down interstate and crossed a bridge that was bumpy and my front end was like my tires were bouncing like a basketball. I thought the front end was coming out from under it and slammed on brakes and started pulling to side of road. After inspecting tires and lugs, I saw nothing wrong and decided to try driving again. As speed increased, there was no problem and eventually got back to speed with no bouncing. Happened again later and I carried truck to Ford dealership. They replaced the steering wheel linkage damper at no charge. The problem was better but not fixed. I carried truck back and they replaced the front suspension tie and charged me $534.37 saying it was not their problem. I disagree.
Our truck begins shaking violently while driving down the highway. This has happened 3 times on the last 5 weeks. It appears to be brought on randomly by normal road -€œbumps-€ the violent shaking begins and we cannot regain control until we come to a stop. This las time, We-€™re on the highway surrounded by passenger vehicles and professional trucks when it began and we needed to stop to make the shaking stop and could not get over. This is going to cause major accidents for anyone around us. This is a 2019 vehicle and we service it regularly, last time being 8/26/21. These three incidences occurred on 9/8/21, 10/7/21 & 10/13/21 This needs to be recalled! It-€™s very dangerous, we lose control and feels like the truck is going to split in two and drop.
Driving at highway speed hit a bump on the freeway and truck started to shake violently and we had to immediately slow down and pull over on the side of the freeway.
Driving highway speed and tire hit lane divider reflector and truck was violently shaking and had to pull over and stop on the side of the road immediately.
While driving on the interstate at approximately 60 mph, I hit a bump on a curved portion of the roadway, which resulted in severe wobbling of the steering wheel and leaving me unable to control the vehicle until I came almost to a stop. This occurred twice at the same location over the period of a week and once more and a different location after that.

Front end suspension and steering wheel shake violently when hitting a bump in the road at around 65 mph. Lost complete control of truck until I hit brakes hard to slow down and shimmying stopped.
