no solution found, the dealer even after seeing video wouldn't fix it under the warrenty. It only happens when it is cold. am going to get a steering stabilizer as others have done. wheels are balanced and alignment is good. it happens when I hit a bump in the road at 65mph or above

If it's out of warranty why are you even trying to take it to the dealer? If you need a competent Jeep shop to quickly diagnose and fix call Globex Performance a call in Toms River.

It’s been almost a year, and nobody has been able to fix this? I drive a 2017 F-250 for work, I start getting the death wobble at about 45,000 miles on tires , have 180,000 miles and have gone through hell trying to get it fixed at dealer, five steering stabilizers did nothing but new tires fix it right away, my company likes us to run our tires out, first two sets of Goodyears went about 77,000 each , Continentals I have on now have 30,000 on them and feel it coming back very tiny bit. I might pay for tires myself instead of waiting . You should not be driving it with DW that much, it wears everything out including your arms!….Jack

Yeah, that's a lot of hammering back and forth - hammering hard, on those tie rods and the drag link and what's it doing to the steering gear.......
