Description of the problem	On multiple occasions, my 2017 f-250 has experienced the so called "death wobble". These events have been triggered by small bumps or pavement transitions in the road when traveling between 55-70 miles per hour. The events seem to have increased in intensity. The first couple of instances the steering wheel shook aggressively, requiring the speed to be reduced to stop the event. The last couple of events have gotten worse. While in traffic traveling down the interstate at 70 mph, the steering wheel / front end began shaking so badly we thought we were getting ready to have a front wheel fly off the truck. I had little to no control over the truck and had to reduce the speed to 45-50 mph to regain control of the truck and get the shaking to stop. The most recent event was triggered while driving in traffic on a state highway traveling approximately 63 mph. A small patch of bumps in the road triggered the event. . Again we had little to no control over the truck. The steering wheel and front end of the truck shook violently and continued until the trucks speed could be reduced to 45-50 mph. The truck has been serviced under tsb-2268 and covered by factory warranty. This tsb did not correct the issue and i am now being told by ford (2,750 miles later) that this pre-existing issue is no longer covered under warranty. My local ford dealership agreed to check to truck to see if any front end parts were loose. I was told there were no parts loose on the the truck that could be causing the condition and that it must be an alignment issue. I question the alignment issue claim as the truck had the alignment set to tsb parameters 2,750 miles ago. I have now been waiting 8 business days to have the alignment checked. Ford really needs to address this safety issue. The issue puts the owner of these new trucks and the drivers around them in an unsafe situation.

A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
