Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Bought the truck used at 150000 miles. After 5000 miles the loud ticking that these trucks are known for became louder. At 161000 miles the engine died. I started it up in my driveway one morning and instead of just ticking, it was knocking 100x louder. The truck began shaking violently. Then it just died. All this happened in a matter of minutes. Had it towed to a shop, and they said i need a whole new engine. I can't help but think if i was driving and this happened, what the outcome would be. I have read hundreds of complaints from people online saying similar things. Ford is aware of the problem, but no recall was issued. That is irresponsible, and very dangerous on ford's part.

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.
