FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY COMPLAINT IS FORD HAS NO WARNING SYSTEM BEFORE IT DOES $7800.00 DAMAGE. I REPORTED THIS PROBLEM TO FORD MOTOR CORP. AND ITS NOT COVERED UNDER THE FACTORY WARRANTY MY CASE NUMBER IS CAS11721824. THE FORD DEALERSHIP I TOOK IT TO SAID FORD USED TO HAVE A DESIGN FEATURE TO SHUT DOWN MOTOR BEFORE IT DID DAMAGE TO FUEL SYSTEM BUT THE EPA HAD THEM REMOVE IT AND FORD NEVER PUT ANYTHING IN TO REPLACE THE WARNING FEATURE. ACCORDING TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP I HAD CONTAMINATED FUEL THAT BY PASSED THE FILTERS THAT I HAD CHANGED ACCORDING TO FORDS RECOMMENDATIONS. I HAVE A REPORT FROM THE STATE OF ARKANSAS BUREAU OF STANDARDS PETROLEUM DIVISION AND THE FUEL ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT THE DIESEL WAS NOT CONTAMINATED FROM THE LAST PLACE I FUELED UP. I REGULARLY USE THE SAME AUTO LUBE TO SERVICE MY TRUCK AND WAS NEVER TOLD I HAD EXCESSIVELY DIRTY FUEL FILTERS AND ONLY HAD 7000 MILES ON THE LAST FUEL FILTER CHANGE BEFORE MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I HAVE INVESTIGATED THIS PROBLEM AND FORD HAS HAD NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME PROBLEM. IF FORD HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM WHY HAVEN'T THEY IMPLEMENTED A SAFETY FEATURE TO PROTECT THE FUEL SYSTEM BEFORE IT DOES EXTENSIVE DAMAGE COSTING THE CONSUMER THIS MUCH TO REPAIR?

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
HAVE A 2015 FORD F-250 LARIAT. BOUGHT BRAND NEW. AROUND 40,000 MILES A CODE CAME ACROSS THE DASH DISPLAY HI'LL DESCENT/ TRACTION CONTROL FAULT-. SO IN TOOK IT IN TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT. GOT IT BACK A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER AND THEY HAD TOLD ME THEY REPLACED SOME PART AND IT SHOULD BE FIXED. AS I WAS DRIVING OUT THE SAME THING CANE ACROSS MY DASH AGAIN AND WENT OFF. I WENT FOR A FEW DAYS AND IT CONTINUED TO COME ACROSS MY DASH. SOMETIMES WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND SOMETIMES SITTING. I DID NOTICE THAT WHEN THIS WOULD HAPPEN MY REMOTE START WOULDN'T WORK. ALONG WITH THOSE ISSUES MY BACK UP CAMERA WOULDN'T WORK. IT WOULD SAY CAMERA NOT AVAILABLE PLEASE CONTACT DEALERSHIP. THIS HAS BEEN A CONTINUING ISSUE. MY TRUCK IS IN THE SHOP NOW 1-25-17 AND HAS BEEN SINCE LAST SATURDAY. I CALLED TO CHECK ON THE TRUCK AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WEREN'T ANY CODES AND THEY NEEDED TO KEEP UNTIL THE CODES POP UP. THE LADY ALSO TOLD ME THAT ONE OF THEIR SERVICE TECH'S TRUCK IS DOING THE SAME THING. NO NEW NEWS FOR GETTING IT FIXED OTHER THEN THEY WILL CALL FORD TO SEE ABOUT ANOTHER ROUTE. ALSO BEFORE THIS TRUCK I HAD A 2012 F-250 LARIAT AND MY FUEL SYSTEM SHUTDOWN LEAVING ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. WHEN I GOT IT TOWED TO THE FORD PLACE THERE WERE LITERALLY 3 OTHER GENTLEMAN THERE FOR THE SAME REASONS. IT COST ME 8500 DOLLARS AND 1 MONTH IN THE SHOP FOR REPAIRS. A WEEK PRIOR TO THAT I HAD IT IN THE SHOP GETTING NEW FILTERS AND OIL CHANGE. THEY TOLD ME I HAD TOO MUCH WATER IN THE FUEL SYSTEM. BUT THEY CHANGED MY FILTERS A WEEK PRIOR TO THIS. *TR

STEERING, SUSPENSION
I HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK FOR LESS THAN A MONTH. TWO TIME, WHEN HITTING A ROUGH SPOT IN THE PAVEMENT, THE FRONT END OF THE TRUCK BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY FROM SIDE-TO-SIDE, AND THE STEERING WHEEL ALSO TURNS VIOLENTLY FROM SIDE-TO-SIDE LIKE IT IS GOING TO RIP YOUR HANDS OFF. SHAKING DOES NOT END UNTIL YOU DECELERATE SIGNIFICANTLY. THE FIRST TIME WAS AT ABOUT 45 MPH IN THE CITY ON A DECENT STREET. THE SECOND TIME WAS LAST NIGHT AND I WAS GOING ABOUT 70 MPH ON A HIGHWAY. IN BOTH CASES, IT DIDN'T TAKE A SIGNIFICANT BUMP TO CAUSE THE VIOLENT SHUDDER OR SHAKING. MANY, MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE BEEN REPORTING THIS ISSUE FOR YEARS. ONE SUGGESTION IS THAT IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING DAMPER SHOCK.

WITHIN 60 SECONDS OF THE MESSAGE "CLEANING EXHAUST FILTER", THE 6.7L ENGINE BEGINS TO LOOSE POWER, VIBRATING, AND MAKING VERY LOUD CLANGING NOISES. ALL WHILE DRIVING AT 60-70 MPH, CAUSING A HUGE DECELERATION, DOWN TO 45 MPH IF GOING UP AN INCLINE, DUE TO LOSE OF POWER. THIS STARTED AT 7,000 MILES AND HAPPENS AT LEAST 1 PER TANK OF FUEL. *TR

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
EXHAUST CLEANING CYCLE CAUSES EXTREMELY ROUGH RUNNING CONDITIONS. SEVERE ENGINE KNOCKING SEEMS AS THOUGH A PISTON WILL FLY THROUGH THE HOOD SOON. SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF POWER AT ANY SPEED DURING THIS TIME. BRAND NEW TRUCK PURCHASED FROM DEALERSHIP AND THIS HAS HAPPENED FROM PURCHASE POINT ALL THE WAY THROUGH 27500 MILES SO FAR. IN READING I HAVE FOUND THOUSANDS OF OTHERS THAT EXPERIENCED THE EXACT SAME ISSUE.

ENGINE
DURING REGEN CYCLE FOR DIESEL MOTOR, VEHICLE BEGINS TO MAKING A KNOCKING NOISE AND THEN BEGINS TO SHAKE, AND FINALLY GIVE FEELING OF LOSING POWER. BECAUSE OF THIS, FEARFUL THE VEHICLE COULD ENCOUNTER THIS SITUATION AT TIMES WHERE IT COULD POSE GREAT DANGER. THIS OCCURS AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND DRIVING CONDITIONS. ISSUE WAS PREVIOUSLY "ADDRESSED" IN A BULLETIN FROM MANUFACTURER; HOWEVER, THERE IS MORE TO THIS CONDITION. WHAT VEHICLES DON'T IDLE OR DRIVE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS FOR A PERIOD OF TIME OR DON'T MAKE SHORT TRIPS? MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE HAPPENED ON 8/15/16, BUT HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR THE TWO MONTHS-- IS GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE IN LEI RATION AND FORCE. HAVE TAKEN TO A DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG-- THEY DIDN'T EVEN ACT LIKE THEY KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT THE ISSUE OCCURRING AND THEY DEFINITELY DID NOT MENTION THE PRECIOUS MANUFACTURE BULLETIN TSB 15-0088. HAVE BEGUN TO RESEARCH THIS ISSUE AND IT APPEARS AN UPDATE WAS TO OCCUR IN MARCH 2016, BUT HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF ANY ISSUES? NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT CLOSELY TO ENSURE IT IS NOT A DESIGN FLAW OR WORSE.

SERVICE BRAKES
ON INTERSTATE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, A VEHICLE CUT IN FRONT OF MY AND HAD TO HIT THE BRAKES VERY HARD (PANIC STOP). THE VEHICLE VEERED VIOLENTLY TO THE LEFT AS SOON AS THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED AND CROSSED THE YELLOW CENTER LINES. TOOK VEHICLE BACK TO FORD SERVICE, TOOK SERVICE WRITER FOR A RIDE TO SHOW THEM WHAT IT DID UNDER SEVERE BRAKING. SAID THERE IS DEFINITELY A PROBLEM BUT THE END RESULT OF 2 WEEKS WAS IT'S A CHARACTERISTIC OF THAT VEHICLE AND THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID "THEY'RE NOT THROWING PARTS AT IT TO FIGURE IT OUT. VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 4,000 MILES ON IT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER FORD DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE VERY SAME THING. SO I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A THIRD FORD DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE VERY SAME OF BEING A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. AS A SIDE NOTE AT ALL OF THESE DEALERSHIPS, THE SERVICE WRITER I TOOK FOR A RIDE ALL AGREED THE VEHICLE SHOULD NOT DO THIS. WAS ALSO PROMISED THEY WOULD CONTACT FORD ENGINEERING WHICH NOT ONE OF THEM DID. NORMAL DRIVING WITHOUT PANIC STOPS OR VERY HARD BRAKING, THE TRUCK STOPS STRAIGHT. ONLY WHEN THE ANTI-LOCKS CLICK IN DOES THIS PROBLEM OCCUR. WE DID CONTACT FORD CUSTOMER CARE AND OPENED A CASE NUMBER BUT THEY WERE OF NO HELP IN THIS SITUATION. WE WERE TOLD THAT THEY CAN'T MAKE THE DEALERSHIP FIX THIS SAFETY PROBLEM AND THEY CAN'T MAKE FORD CALL THE FORD ENGINEERING DEPT. IT'S SOMETHING THE DEALERSHIP HAS TO DO. AGAIN, THEY DETERMINED THAT THIS WAS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE 2015 F250 GAS SUPERDUTY AS THEY FOUND ONE OTHER ONE ON THEIR LOT THAT DID THE SAME THING. SO THIS SAFETY BRAKING PROBLEM IS NOT A CONCERN FOR FORD DEALERSHIPS THAT WE WENT TO AS IT IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE TRUCK NOR DO THEY DEEM IT NECESSARY TO CONTACT FORD ENGINEERING.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
DURING THE EPA MANDATED EXHAUST REGENERATION CYCLE THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO SHUDDER UNCONTROLLABLY ALONG WITH POWER LOSS. THIS BEHAVIOR BEGAN AT AROUND 5,500 MILES AND NOW DOES IT AT LEAST EVERY OTHER EXHAUST REGENERATION. IT HAPPENS ON MULTIPLE LANE COUNTRY ROADS AND CITY ROADS AT AROUND 50 TO 60 MILES PER HOUR. IT SEEMS MORE SPECIFIC TO THE REGENERATION CYCLE THAN ANY OTHER DRIVING CONDITION OR INPUT. TEMPERATURE IS BETWEEN 40 AND 70 DEGREES OUTSIDE SO FAR. EACH TIME IT HAPPENS IS WORSE THAN THE LAST. THE EXPERIENCE IS SCARY AND COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. I NO LONGER LET MY WIFE DRIVE THIS VEHICLE FOR FEAR THAT IT MAY SHUDDER HER OFF THE HIGHWAY.

ENGINE
I HAVE A 2015 FORD F-250 SUPER DUTY WITH A 6.7L DIESEL. I STARTED HAVING THIS PROBLEM INTERMITTENTLY AND ONLY NOTICED IT ON HOT DAYS WHILE AT SLOW SPEEDS, BUT IT HAS CONTINUED TO GET WORSE TO THE POINT THAT IT HAPPENED WITH EVERY RE-GEN, AT ANY OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE AND ALMOST ANY SPEED. IT ALL STARTS WITH THE NOTIFICATION ON THE SCREEN OF CLEARING THE EXHAUST FILTER AND HAS AN OK IN THE CORNER OF THE SCREEN. NOT SURE WHY THE OK, SINCE YOU HAVE NO CHOICE ON WHETHER TO START THE PROCESS OR NOT. DURING THE RE-GEN PROCESS THE ENGINE SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT ANY NOTIFICATION, LOOSES POWER, STARTS TO SHAKE AND SHUTTER SO VIOLENTLY THAT IT SHAKES THE WHOLE TRUCK. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IT IS TO PUT THE THROTTLE TO THE FLOOR. IF I LET OFF THE THROTTLE IT STARTS OVER AGAIN. THE TWO SAFETY CONCERNS THAT IT CAUSES ARE THE SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND MY TRUCK SUDDENLY SLOWING DOWN WITHOUT ANY BRAKE LIGHTS TO WARN DRIVERS BEHIND ME (I WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED LAST TIME IT HAPPENED IN TOWN) AND SECONDLY, HAVING TO KEEP THE THROTTLE ON THE FLOOR TO STOP THE PROBLEM AND THE SPEED THE TRUCK OBTAINS WHEN DOING SO. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I CANNOT STEP ON THE THROTTLE BECAUSE OF THE SPEED LIMIT, TRAFFIC OR ROAD CONDITIONS, AND AM FORCED TO PULL OVER IF THERE IS AN AREA TO SO, IF NOT I KEEP CHUGGING ALONG HOLDING UP TRAFFIC UNTIL I CAN. I HAVE NOT PULLED A TRAILER AS OF YET, BUT QUITE FRANKLY AN AFRAID TO DO SO WITH THIS PROBLEM FOR FEAR OF BEING REAR-ENDED. IT OCCURS AT SPEEDS FROM 30 TO 70 MPH. IT HAS HAPPENED IN TOWN ON RURAL ROADS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. IT HAS BEEN INTO FORD SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE LAST TIME IT WAS AT FORD, THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME FORD IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND WILL BE COMING OUT WITH A SOFTWARE REVISION, BUT NOT UNTIL APRIL OF 2016. THE TRUCK IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE UNTIL THEN.

2015 POWERSTROKE 6.7 DIESEL ENGINE HAS <15,000 MILES. HAMMERING OF ENGINE AT ALL SPEEDS. LASTING LESS THAN 8-10 SECONDS IN DURATION. ACCORDING TO TSB 15-0124 THIS IS A VALVE AND VALVE GUIDE CLEARANCE ISSUE THAT FORD APPEARS WELL AWARE OF. RECOMMENDING MAJOR ENGINE WORK TO POSSIBLY FIX DESIGN FLAWS. THE LOSS OF POWER DURING OPERATION IS DANGEROUS. VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR THIS ISSUE. POWERSTROKE FORUMS ACROSS COUNTRY SHOWING THIS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THE 2015 6.7 DIESEL ENGINE WITH PROBLEMS STARTING AS EARLY AS 4,000 MILES.

MY 2015 F250 STARTED VIBRATING AND SHAKING DURING REGEN A LITTLE AFTER 4100 MILES ON THE MOTOR. I DRIVE THE TRUCK 85% OF THE TIME ON THE HIGHWAY AT LEAST 45-60 MINUTES TO WORK. FORDS STANCE ORIGINALLY IS THAT THIS IS NORMAL!?! THEY HAVE NOW RELEASED A TSB STATING THAT THEY KNOW THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE AND THAT A FIX SHOULD BE OUT SOMETIME IN MARCH 2016 WITH A RECALIBRATION FOR THE DPF. IN THE MEANTIME MY TRUCKS VALVES ARE STICKING IN THE OPEN POSITION I'M SURE CAUSING ENGINE WEAR/DAMAGE (ROOT CAUSE OF THE ISSUE). NOT SURE HOW A RECALIBRATION ON THE EMISSIONS ARE GOING TO FIX CRAPPY VALVE TO GUIDE CLEARANCES. FORD KNOWS THAT IT'S AN ISSUE WITH CURRENT 2015-2016. $60,000.00 RUINING LIKE CRAP, THANKS FORD!
