| Bought vehicle used in nov,2011. about 4 months later started having problems with engine power. was told by ford dealership that i bought it from would need to rebuild engine, should be covered under extended warranty (involved egr, gaskets and bent head bolts). call ford extended warranty people. refused to pay anything. now truck has about 96000 miles on it and the truck is stalling out while driving down the road, took back to dealership again, was told that the injectors are the problem now. decided to check out recalls on this veh. and found out several things (1) that ford had a recall for the injectors and (2) that the problems before were probably caused by this. called the recall center at ford and was told that vin # did not match up to any recalls, even though it was on 180000 05 ford f250 sd. was also told to check with extended warranty that is also through ford. once this is fixed will have more money invested in this and rebuilding engine 6 months ago than the truck is worth. no more fords for us. *tr | |||

| It took several times before i could crank my truck and once it was started it smoked badly but did eventally clear up. it spitted and sputtered on the way to work so i dropped it off at the mechanics shop. the mechanic inspected it and the fuel injector module was bad. i researched the recall list and called the ford dealership in mobile, al based on the recall list to have the problem repaired; gave them my vin and was told that my vehicle was not included in any recalls. the dealership offered to repair the module for $900.00 however the nhtsa id # 05v270000 says there is a recall concerning this issue. | |||

| While on vacation truck started losing power then started blowing coolant from the exhaust pipe. called aaa had truck towed to ford dealership where they told me truck had bad egr cooler. not only that but my truck was 8 months out of warranty. dealership repaired truck, cost was over $2,500. not only did i have to travel 2 hours to pick my truck up 3 days later after repair, but found online they are a lot of 6.0 power stroke customers having same issue. i contacted ford with no resolution, even asked the representative if she could look up some of the same websites that i had, she replied no due to restriction at work. i then offered to email the complaints of others to them which i was told no. i was told my name and information would be saved incase there was ever a recall. this is obviously a defect with this engine and needs to be addressed, and customers reimbursed. | |||
