Description of the problem	Purchased brand new, had the first steering oscillating experience or death wobble at around 10000 miles. Happened on and off, took it in for warranty and they couldn't find any issues, but replaced the steering dampner. I pretty munched stopped driving over 63 mph unless i knew every bump on the road by heart. Finally got it in at another dealership at around 17000 miles due to the continued death wobble that would happen over certain bumps at speeds over 65. They found a bad lower tie rod end. After replacing the tie rod end it seemed to drive a little better, finally went 70mph again, but not for long. At about 22,000 miles it started again, my wife was with me and experienced it for the first time. She cried... Has not set foot in it since. It now has 23000 miles on it. My wife refuses to ride in it or drive it. I will not allow my 3 kids to ride in it either. If it happened at the wrong time it could easily kill someone. I'm a very mechanically inclined person, and experienced driver. It truly scares me when it happens. Between the death wobble, and ford urging dealerships to hush hush the severity, i wont be buying another new ford anytime soon. And i purchased 3 new trucks in the last 5 years, and have easily owned 15 or more. This is just my complaint about something that is potentially a deadly design flaw. Not to mention it shakes bad while towing. And it's not the trailer, i pulled 3 different ones. And the dealer told me it just how they tow when i brought the tsb, part numbers etc. For them to repair it. And just ignore it. I have zero complaints on any of the other ford vehicles i have owned, but this 2017 f250 has made me rethink my next new vehicle purchase. I also have video footage of several of the death wobble occurrences.

What is Recall?
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?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
