  ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  1. The high pressure fuel system failed, specifically the secondary fuel filter. The fire originated from the injector manifold, burning straight up to the bottom of the hood. Fuel was everywhere and the driver could obviously smell it. 2. This could have been a life threatening fire. 3. The problem has been confirmed by an independent fire safety company that was hired by our insurance. 4. The vehicle was inspected by insurance representatives and the fire department. 5. The Low Air buzzer went off in the cab, indicating the fire had burnt through the air lines to the brake system 6. It is notable that the 2021 Ford F-750 was recalled due to fire hazard.

  POWER TRAIN, SERVICE BRAKES

  Axle Shaft Gaskets have been replaced multiple times due to Leaking oil on the Drive Axle. This occurs about every 20,000 miles. Both of our other F-750 Trucks (1 other is a 2017 & the other one is a 2018) have the same issue. Appears that the gasket is pushed out.
