Oh man. Prayers of comfort to the surviving family. So tragic and sad. I hope they'll be able to find a definitive cause and will be following this thread for updates.
I know there's factory experts in this forum. Could this have been death wobble? Curious to hear some thoughts.
Very sad.
As to your question; do you really expect a Ford employee to claim responsibility in an accident that resulted in the death of five family members?
Of all of the potential causes (alcohol or drug impairment, fell asleep, medical condition, swerve to avoid something, etc...) you think this might be death wobble? Really?
Really? Are you trying to create an outlandish internet rumor without any factual evidence whatsoever? There are a 100 other things more likely that DW so let's hold off on the speculation until more information is released.
No way to tell. Dead wobble? How about dropping your cell phone, wallet, coffee cup, cigarette, sandwhich, soda or just about anything else. Maybe it was a blown tire.
A guy I work with dropped his can of dip while driving off plant site yesterday. He ran his truck into a guard rail trying to retrieve it. If it wasn’t for the Armco rail he would of ended up in a 10 foot deep retention pond.
But guess we could speculate it was a death wobble instead of a can of dip and distracted driving that caused it.
Could have even been a left front tire blow out, and failure to maintain control. Yes this is a larger vehicle but it can happen on our size of vehicle also.
Horrific accident. We travel this road almost weekly on the way to the beach. I call this road the Delaware autobahn. The avg speed is 75-80+. My wife was on the road when it happened and eventually drove past the accident. I have not heard many more details on the cause. It will not surprise me to hear it was related to speed
