Fuel/Propulsion System · at 132,000 miles · reported May 15, 2019
I own a 2014 f350 diesel truck, my buddy owns a 2015 f350 diesel truck, a month or so ago he was driving down the road and his truck stalled/shut down on him driving down the road causing his steering wheel to lock up, he was barley able to get it onto the shoulder and it left him stranded since his truck wouldn't start back up. He brought it to a shop and come to find out it was his high pressure fuel pump. Fast forward a little further, he did some research and found out that ford put faulty fuel pumps on all their diesel trucks, the pumps can't handle us diesel, it's not lubricated enough…
Steering · at 79,000 miles · reported Mar 23, 2019
Multiple times while driving on highway at 50 MPH the vehicle starts shaking violently and only way to correct it is to jam on the brakes and get down to around 25mph and then re accelerate...an inate amount of ppl have this same problem I hope that ford will address.this issue with a recall before ppl are killed because of this obvious flaw in their design!
Engine · at 40,000 miles · reported Jan 31, 2017
My newer p/u just outside of warranty is leaking from the radiator. Seems to be on ongoing issue with the 6.7 l engine. Ford will not stand behind their product and assist with the large cost of fixing. Ford dealership took a look at it and says it needs a new radiator. This should not be happening around 40k miles. Just a few drops on the ground each day on the garage floor.
Unknown or Other · at 71,200 miles · reported Jan 1, 2017
This vehicle is equipped with automatic headlights. Regardless of switch position, the instrument cluster lights stay off when the sensor detects any daylight at all. The design of the dash makes seeing the speedometer either extremely difficult or impossible, on overcast days and in low light situations. This is a known issue, but the manufacturer does not acknowledge it as a problem.
Steering · at 17,500 miles · reported Aug 6, 2016
The pickup truck was purchased brand new from the dealership, and it is inherent to what is known as the "death wobble." this mainly happens when the vehicle is on the highway generally while in the speed between 55 and 60 MPH, during a course of slight turn either to the right or to the left when impacted by a slight bump, the truck goes into a violent shaking. The attempt of applying the brakes would make the symptoms worse. The attempt of increasing speed would again make the symptoms worse. Steering is almost none existent as the steering wheel is shaking profusely. Ford manufacturer is…
