Reported at 140,000 miles, September 2019 Crash

My 2014 f250 has since around 80k miles had an uncontrollable wobble when at low highway speeds hitting even the smallest bump in the road. After multiple alignments and tire changes my dealer admitted that its known as "death wobble" and I need to do thousands of dollars in repairs that are very common. I am at 140k now and they finally admited that its a systemic problem
