| The dpf / cleaning exhaust filter initiated without warning while i attempted to cross a busy intersection, thus, drastically reducing the boost and power to the vehicle when it was absolutely essential. the drastic loss of boost and power put me in imminent danger due to on coming traffic and my vehicle and i were in the broadside position. a motorist had to take evasive action to avoid slamming into the side of my vehicle by riding onto and over the median. i was lucky enough to retrieve his name and phone number. i brought the vehicle to the team ford las vegas for repair, however, the truck checked out according to ford's specification. on 3/10/11 service manager bob rahala contacted ford consumer relations in my presence and the representative stated ford is aware of the problem and we are working on it; you will be contacted within 48 hours with the further information. i received the call from ford consumer relations 23 hours later and the representative stated the truck is operating according to spec, there is no problem. please be advised, ford is aware of the boost and power loss when the cleaning exhaust filter mode is in effect. my ford case number is 0527870691 which ford closed. this is a major safety issue that requires action immediately. | |||

| When driiving at highway speeds for at least 15-20 minutes, then when you slow down or come to a stop. the problem manifests itself. engine begins to hesitate, sputter, shake and leads to a total loss of power and begins to blow tons of white smoke, i , mean a cloud of smoke. this happens every time it is humid or raining out and even in between. it has happened from day one. just picture this scenario playing out, as you attempt to cross a busy intersection, passing or getting on a highway, pulling a trailer and climbing a hill or mountain totally dangerous condition. there are thousands of people with the same complaint of the same condition manifesting itself.the evidence is on the internet diesel forums and blogs and ford says that there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. this condition does not generate any trouble codes or lights on the dashboard, what a nightmare : vehicles affected are ford f-250,350,450 etc superduty 6.4l diesel engine it is a shame that you pay upwards of $ 50,000.00 or more for these vehicles and they are potentially life threatening and the manufacturer only makes excuses for an obvious model wide problem. the problem/ condition has manifested over 25 times in my vehicle in only 6 months of ownership. i am scared to pass, pull trailers, cross intersections because this condition leaves the car powerless for multiple seconds at will repeatedly. we need your help, to force the manufacturer to come clean and own up to this defect once and for all it affects 2008-2010 model years, they have a tsb for this on the first build of vehicles, there are 3 builds i believe, however the problem is still present in the later builds. wow unbelievable | |||

| 2010 f-250 40k miles has been in and out of the shop since purchased 14 service repairs and 8 of the 14 repairs have been major, transmission was leaking and down shifting while on the highway, had to be repaired, cruise control went out while on the freeway and the truck lost all power while on a highly congested highway, it has had the same problem a few times now, defective instrument cluster fuel, speedometer. egr valves went out and stalled in the middle of a intersection with a 30 foot trailer, which that happened twice, ford says well this has never happened to any other vehicles that they have dealt with. this has reoccurred multiple times, which causes traffic congestion and could possibly result in major issues or accidents, truck was purchased to haul a trailer and we do not trust it at all since it has broke down so many times. when you press the accelerator loaded or unloaded it has a hesitation before it goes, sometimes it takes awhile to get up to speed, fuel injectors have been replaced also. when the cleaning exhaust system is on it starts to decelerate and you lose a good amount of power. | |||
