Description of the problem	My ford f250 super duty 2006 model truck started up just fine on way to job site and then about 1:00 p. M. That day my truck over-heated even though no indication on the electrical panel. I saw white smoke coming out of tail pipe, started over-heating, and i was losing power in motor. I put water in coolant over-fill because all of my antifreeze drained out and i just had put in prior to this date above about two weeks. I regularly change the oil and maintain all the fluids and do required maintenance on truck per the mileage. I was able to make it to my house where i waited 30 minutes for truck to cool and then drove immediately to diesel mechanic named [xxx] who knew immediately what had happened because (6) other trucks came in the same week with the same issue which was to replace the egr's and also the oil cooler. My bill for this was over $3,000. 00. I was very lucky that i had work and was able to pay for this huge expense otherwise i would be out-of-pocket in a bad way because the truck is my livelihood in my making money as i am a general contractor and need a heavy duty truck. I think that there should be a re-call on this part because of the six other trucks that came into his diesel shop the same week. This was a very expensive experience and i feel like ford should know about this and correct the error because this part should not go out on a super duty truck like this.

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?
