A steering control module in my steering wheel failed which makes the lane keeping warning not operate correctly and the steering wheel not straight it's set at an angle to the right so when you're driving down the road you have to have it constantly turn to the right a little bit in order to go straight down the road in order to fix it you have to replace the entire steering wheel which is about 3,400 or so.

I was driving at freeway speeds on the interstate when I hit a divot in the pavement. My truck started shaking violently and I could barely control the steering and/or hold onto the steering wheel. When I applied the brakes, the issue worsened. I was finally able to find a spot to pull off. The shaking stopped and I was able to re-enter the freeway. This issue has occurred on three separate occasions. The first incident occurred on or about March 31, 2025, as described above. The second and third incident occurred yesterday, May 11th, mirroring the conditions of March 31st.

I was driving on an interstate at about 70MPH and I hit a bump that sent my front end into a terrible wobble. I could not regain control and literally had to slow down by braking and pulling off the road. I am lucky I was in the right lane, or I would have been in trouble as it would not stop shaking until I got down to about 20MPH. I could not steer the vehicle until it was at the lower speed limit. It was the worst feeling I have ever experienced. I have been driving for over 45 years and this is the scariest situation I have faced. This happened again a few days later, however it was at only 50 MPH and in a banking turn. I was able to get over to shoulder again. My F350 has 56,000 miles. I have good tires, and the air pressure was correct both times it happened. I have an appointment to take my vehicle to the dealer.
DEATH WOBBLE, front suspension and steering Danger of a rear end collision at freeway speeds, or loss of control hitting other vehicles or items on the side of the road, result possible death to passengers, other vehicle people or bystanders. NO NO NONE I am a former Mechanic and this is LIFE THREATENING.
Front steering/suspension system Severe wobble causes driver to stop in middle of Freeway, possible accidents or death in an accident. Not confirmed by dealer at this time. Hundreds have reported here, and the same occured. Not at this time. No warnings prior to all of the failures. So far 12 failures Yes, 12 failures.
My truck has only 13000 miles on it. We were going on vacation pulling our camper. I was doing about 63 MPH when we hit a bump in the interstate and the truck started VIOLENTLY shaking out of control. They cal it the death wobble. After doing some research it seams to be a very common problem that ford will not fully address. They put a bandage over a serious issue. They put me, my family and others in very serious danger. It took everything I had to keep us from going in the ditch. A vehicle with only 13000 miles on it should not experience something like this.
In June 2024, I experienced serious sustained steering wheel oscillation to the point of having to stop the vehicle while traveling over 70 mph to regain control before proceeding on my way. I scheduled an appointment with my dealer (Woody Anderson Ford, Huntsville, AL) after July 4th weekend and was assigned an appointment date of August 9, 2024 at 10:00am. In May 2024, after traveling about 47 mph over a semi-diagonal railroad tracks on level pavement, the steering became violent but was recoverable after reducing speed to under 20 mph. This was the second instance. In March 2024, after transitioning across a section of highway in town at about +/- 45 mph, which the highway had appeared to have been poorly repaired my steering began to oscillate but I was able to recover with no concern. This was the first instance.
