| In a june 7, 2005 letter, ford notified odi that it would be conducting a safety recall of approximately 180,000 ford f-super duty, excursion and e-series vehicles equipped with 6.0l diesel engines to correct two wiring related conditions that could result in engine stall (nhtsa recall no. 05v-270, ford no. 05s34).the affected vehicles were built between september 29, 2003 and may 31, 2004.according to ford, vehicles with the conditions may stall without warning and may or may not restart.ford will instruct owners of vehicles included in the recall to take their vehicles to a dealer to have the fuel injector control module wire harness upgraded or replaced and or have a new injection control pressure sensor connector installed.during a may 2005 presentation to odi, ford identified a number of potential failure mechanisms that could affect engine performance in various segments of the subject vehicle population, including the wiring conditions addressed by 05v-270.the wiring conditions, which both affect engine fueling, were the most likely conditions to result in engine stall.the recalled vehicles comprise approximately 43% of the subject vehicle population and account for 75 of the 113 odi reports that have a valid vin (66%).the voq complaint rate for the recall population is 45/100k while the rate for vehicles outside the recall population is 17/100k and their trend (by date of receipt) is declining.based on the analysis, odi believes ford | ||||||

| Discovered my f550 superduty 6.0 diesel at 94000 miles with 8 months over its warranty had an exhaust leak coming from both sides of its 6.0 liter diesel engine exhaust manifolds. these fumes were coming into the passenger compartment at idle. at the same mileage, dealer discovered that engine had oil in coolant and that its entire passenger side injectors were malfunctioning along with the fuel pump and its regulator. excessive fuel in engine, running very lean could cause engine to cease while driving. dealer advised that oil in coolant is common for these engines and that this causes a other malfunctions such as head gaskets to go. the exhaust manifolds were repaired at approx. $1172. the other engine work was not repaired as of yet due to it costing approx. $4240. the head gasket work would cost another $6000. ford said it would not cover the repairs because i was the second owner. bbb complaint filed and in search for class action law suit to cover repairs only. *tr | |||

| 04 ford f550 sd dump truck was bought new on 12/04.. in april 2005 transmission leaked fluid while in park and truck was towed to dealer. the dealer claimed cause of problem was due to loose bolts on trans case. tranmission continued to slip but dealer could not find problem. february 2006, approximately 16,000 miles on truck, transmission completely fails. truck towed to dealership and new transmission installed. on june 2008 (approximately 56,000 miles) while driving on major highway, truck begins to lose power and black smoke pours out of muffler. the truck was driven to local dealership and diagnosed with a blown turbo. ford did not cover cost of repair. i paid $4,500.00 out of pocket to replace turbo. august 2009 (approximately 68,000 miles) again while driving on major highway, truck loses power and stalls. truck was towed to ford dealership and diagnosed with clogged injectors due to deteriorating gas tank. dealer advised me that all 8 injectors would have to be replaced and new fuel pump installed. the total cost of repairs would be $4,300.00 and it would not be covered by ford. i was incensed to say the least...after getting a second opinion, i paid an additional $475.00 and had the truck towed to another ford dealership which made the repairs without any cost to me. the fuel tank was not replaced even though it was the cause of the problem. i replaced the tank and paid $750.00 out of pocket...december 27, 2010 (96,000 miles) without warning, transmission begins to slip. i contacted the ford dealership that made the last repairs. i was told the transmission was out of warrenty and would not be covered by ford. it would cost $4,200.00 to replace. i took truck to a local tranmission repair shop and paid $3,000.00 to rebuild transmission. its obvious that ford does not back up their product. i will never buy another ford again!!!! | |||
