| 1. 2005 ford f550 diesel truck stalling, rough idle, loss of power completely. 2. the diesel fuel tank is delaminating and has caused $6,000 worth in damages. my truck stopped working completely and was towed to a ford dealership here in hawaii for diagnosis. my f550 is currently covered with a super duty diesel engine care warrantee that cost over $3,000 yet ford will not replace the defected tank that has caused thousands of problems nationwide to date. the tanks need to be recalled and individuals need to be reimbursed. ford has taken away from our economy and endangered our roads. 3. fuel filters, fuel tank, fuel injectors, fuel pumps, fuel pressure regulators, and fuel senders all need to be replaced. they are planning to replace the fuel tank with the same manufactured tank. it has already been documented that the problem will reoccur as many have had to replace the tank more than once. ford blames biodiesel yet i have never used biodiesel. this is manufactured defect. no other diesel tanks are having this problem on a daily basis nationwide. | |||
