2004 FORD F-250 SD Complaints

I HAVE A 2004 FORD F-250 WITH A TRITON 5.4 LITER ENGINE. I WENT OUT TO START THE TRUCK AND HEARD A LOUD BOOM AND THEN THE TRUCK SOUNDED LIKE I HAD LOST THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. AS IT TURNS OUT THE ENGINE PRESSURE BLEW A SPARK PLUG OUT OF THE HEAD AND ALSO BROKE THE COIL PACK ON TOP OF IT. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET IT SEEMS THIS IS A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM YET FORD HAS NOT OFFERED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT BLAMING IT ON MANY ISSUES THAT SIMPLY DO NOT MAKE SENSE. THE GOVERNMENT TO THIS POINT HAS ALSO NOT FORCED A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE WHICH I FIND VERY DISHEARTENING AS THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. NOT EVERYONE DRIVING A TRUCK IS A MECHANIC AND MAY NOT BE AWARE OF THE FACT THAT THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM COULD LEAD TO A MAJOR FIRE OR EXPLOSION IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. *TR

2004 F-250 SUPERDUTY WITH 6.0 DIESEL EVERY MORNING THE TRUCK HAS NO ACCELERATION FROM THE START IT RUNS REALLY ROUGH AND IF I DEPRESS THE ACCELERATOR THE TRUCK WILL NOT MOVE OR IT WILL ONLY GO TO A SPEED OF 5 TO 10 MPH THIS ALSO HAPPENS IF THE TRUCK HAS BEEN SETTING FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME LIKE ALL DAY AT WORK I HAVE HAD SEVERAL VERY CLOSE CALLS WITH OTHER CARS WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND THE TRUCK WILL NOT GO THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES AND I HAVE HAD NO HELP FROM THE LOCAL DEALER . *TR

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, I HAD IT CHECKED AND FOUND THAT IT WAS CODE #P2285 OR ICP SENSOR CIRCUIT. THE TRUCK IDLES ERRATIC AND THE MOTOR SURGES. THE FORD DEALER SAID THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER SAFETY RECALL #05S34 BECAUSE OF THE BUILD DATE. I HAVE NOT HAD IT REPAIRED YET. *TR

THE VEHICLE IS A 2004 FORD F-250 SUPER DUTY I STEPPED ON MY BRAKES AND HEARD A POP. THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. WHEN I GOT THE VEHICLE STOPPED, AND INVESTIGATED, I FOUND THAT ONE OF THE TWO BOLTS THAT MOUNT THE MASTER CYLINDER HAD BROKEN OFF. THIS LEFT THE MASTER CYLINDER HANGING BY ONE BENT BOLT AND THE BRAKES WERE NOT FUNCTIONING. VERY SCARY. LOW GRADE BOLTS? I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE TRUCK. HERE IS AN INTERNET POSTING OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVING SIMILAR PROBLEMS. HTTP://WWW.FORD-TRUCKS.COM/FORUMS/690350-BROKEN-MASTER-CYLINDER-BOLTS.HTML I DON'T HAVE MY VIN WITH ME HERE AT WORK, I CAN GIVE THIS TO YOU IN A FOLLOWING EMAIL IF YOU LIKE. *TR

I OWN A 2004 FORD F250 SD DIESEL AND ON 10/11/08 TOOK A TRIP TO SANTE FE NM WHICH APPROX 55 MILES AND FROM WHAT THEY TELL ME A FUEL INJECTOR STUCK AND LET FUEL INTO THE CYL THUS RUINING THE ENGINE. I BELIEVE THAT THIS RELATED TO THE SHOP REPLACING THE TURBO WHICH BLEW UP INTO PIECES AND WENT INTO THE EXHAUST AND POSSIBLY INTO THE FUEL SYSTEM JAMMING UP THE INJECTOR CAUSING THE DAMAGE. THIS WAS THE SECOND TURBO WITH IN THE LAST 3000 MILES. THIS VEHICLE HAS ONLY 35400 MILES I FEEL THE ENGINE SHOULD BE COVERED BY WARRANTY DUE TO MILES ON VEHICLE AND ALSO THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY NOT EVEN A MONTH PAST. *TR
