| After letting 2006 f250 diesel warm up for approximately 5mins, proceed to get onto i-35, about 5 miles from the house when i set the cruise control for 70mph everything was fine. within a mile of getting on the highway, truck hesitated and completely stalled. i move the vehicle onto the shoulder of the highway to await a tow. i took it to a ford dealership where they found that the ficm was bad. a day after i picked up the truck, again, the vehicle hesitated for a second before stalling in city traffic. i lost power brakes and power steering and was very difficult to get off of the city streets. currently towed to the dealership again, where the issue is under investigation. concern that if someone other than a 6'4 person was driving this 7500lb vehicle, they may not have been able to steer this vehicle out of the traffic. i've heard of common complaints with the ficm/hpop/egr issues with these trucks and am surprised that no recall has been created by ford. *tr | |||

| 2006 f-250 sd 6.0 diesel engine. a fuel leak onto the engine developed due to a degraded o-ring where the fuel pressure regulator assembly attaches to the engine mounted fuel filter. the leakage was estimated at 6 drops per minute when the engine was running. the housing and o-ring are subject to approximately 45 psig and are on the upper section of the engine. the leak was detected due to strong odor of unburned diesel fumes coming in the hvac system when stopped at a light and at the front exterior of the truck just after shutting the engine off. the dealer stated and my own research on internet forumns indicated this is a common issue. under the wrong circumstances this could be a fire hazard and at best is an issue with environmental impact to some degree. the dealer is making this repair at my expense. | |||
