Wheels on other F-250 Super Duty years

Report counts are for each model year on its own, so a newer car has had less time to collect them. Model years with too few reports of it for a sheet: 2014, 2016, 2020, 2021, 2022.

What this problem usually is

This sheet gathers complaints about the parts that meet the road: tires that wear out early or blow out, wheels that crack or bend, lug nuts that come loose, and wheel bearings that start to hum. The median mileage owners give is about 21,000, among the lowest on the site, so many of these are fairly new cars.

What got replaced

Owners who name the part that was replaced mention the wheel (39 reports) and the tires (34 reports).

Recalls and investigations

One recall on the wheels covers the 2019 model year. A recall on the same system isn't always the same failure, so read the defect text.

Is this a known problem?

The manufacturer has sent NHTSA 2 service bulletins or notices for the 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty that deal with this problem. Newest first.

Federal rules make a manufacturer send NHTSA a copy of any notice about a defect that goes to more than one dealer or owner. Most of these are service bulletins, the repair instructions manufacturers send to dealers. NHTSA generally leaves safety recall bulletins out of this file, and recalls are listed separately.

What owners wrote

“Experienced the oft reported death wobble while driving home from TN and had to limp my vehicle home while experiencing the constant, extreme and dangerous wobbling.”

Filed Jul 5, 2026

“My lug nuts have swollen and cannot be removed using the proper size socket. The chrome outer coating is separating from the inner steel lug nut. This means that the chrome coating could fall off and cause an imbalance on each wheel which could lead to disastrous effects including the lugs breaking off and causing a tire to come off.”

“While driving on Interstate 45 south of Houston at highway speeds, the steering wheel began heavily vibrating after hitting a small pothole in the freeway. It vibrated violently until I was able to apply the brakes and slow to under 40 mph. At that point, it smoothed out and control was restored.”

“While driving my children to school on a two lane road (55) the front end started shaking wildly. I lost control of the vehicle and ran oncoming traffic off the road when I crossed the double yellow line. My vehicle is stock with just barely 17k miles. Very scary.”

Should you keep driving it?

This page can't tell you that. 1 of 91 reports involved a crash. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.

File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation. How reports land on this sheet.
