2016 FORD F-250 SD Complaints

STRONG ELECTRICAL SMELL AFTER REMOTE STARTING 2016 F250. DROVE 2 MILES AND DRIVERS SIDE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED WHILE DRIVING.

VEHICLE HAS A HOPPING THAT OCCURS AT SPEEDS OF 40-80 MPH, HAVE TRIED SEVERAL REMEDIES, NONE OF WHICH WORK. HOPPING SENSATION IS SO SEVERE THAT I WOULD BE WORRIED TO PUT CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT OF THE VEHICLE. MANUFACTURER IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, HAS A TSB IN AN ATTEMPT TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. THE MANUFACTURER NUMBER OF THE TSB IS 16-0087. MANUFACTURER CLAIMS ISSUE IS CAUSED BY FRAME FLEX. NO KNOWN FIX FOR THE ISSUE. ENGINE ALSO HAS A CONSISTENT ISSUE OF PUTTING DIESEL FUEL INTO THE ENGINE OIL, MANUFACTURER ALSO CLAIMS THIS ISSUE IS "NORMAL"

THE STEERING WHEEL IS SHAKING BADLY TO THE POINT THAT THE CAR NEEDS TO BE STOPPED IMMEDIATELY. IT IS EXTREMELY HARD TO DO WHEN IT HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY. IN ADDITION TO STEERING WHEEL SHAKE, BOTH FRONT WHEELS ARE WOBBLING AND THE CAR STARTS TO SHAKE.

WHILE TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY, PULLING A 5TH WHEEL RV, THE VEHICLE'S SUNROOF EXPLODED OUTWARDS. WHEN WE SAFELY STOPPED, THE REMAINING GLASS WAS BOWED OUTWARDS FROM THE VEHICLE.. THE SUNROOF WAS FULLY CLOSED AT THE TIME, AND NOTHING STRUCK ANYWHERE ON THE VEHICLE. WE WERE TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 75 MPH.

SINCE THE DAY I PURCHASE THIS TRUCK NEW I HAVE A VIBRATION FROM THE REAR OF THE TRUCK. I TOOK ITT TO FORD TWO TIMES EACH TIME THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NORMAL . THAT'S SECOND TIME THAT I TOOK IT IN THE SERVICE MANAGER ROAD IN THE TRUCK AND FELT THE VIBRATION AND SAID THAT IT WAS BAD. THEY KEPT THE TRUCK FOR 24 HOURS AND THEN CALLED ME AND TOLD ME IT WAS NORMAL. THEY SAID THESE TRUCKS WERE MADE TO CARRY WEIGHT THAT'S THE REASON WHY IT VIBRATES . THIS IS ALSO A FOUR-DOOR TRUCK WHICH CARRIES PASSENGERS. THE VIBRATION IS SO BAD THAT IF THERE WAS A BABY IN THE BACKSEAT SLEEPING IT WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SLEEP. THE VIBRATIONS THOUGHTS ABOUT 60 MILES AN HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY . THEY STARTED HAPPENING FROM THE DAY I PURCHASE THE TRUCK IN DECEMBER 2016 .

I TOTALED MY 2016 FORD F-250. I SLAMMED INTO A DODGE RAM AT ABOUT 45MPH. MY F-250 BROKE THE SUSPENSION, STEERING, BENT THE FRAME, CRUMPLED THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND BROKE THE BRAKES. MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-250. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND UNOCCUPIED, THE REAR WINDSHIELD EXPLODED WITHOUT IMPACT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,000.

BOUGHT 2016 F 250 USED FROM DEALER NOW I HAVE TIRE TREAD ISSUES. WIFE AND 2 CHILDREN USE THIS VEHICLE AS A DAILY DRIVER BECAUSE WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE SAFE. NOW NOT SO SURE. ALL TIRES ARE ORIGINAL AND IN GOOD SHAPE UNTIL WE NOTICED A CHUNK OF THREAD STARTING TO SEPARATE FROM TIRE.

DURING REGENERATION THERE IS A JACKHAMMERING EFFECT AND IT SHAKES THE WHOLE TRUCK. SOUNDS LIKE THE VALVES ARE GOING TO COME OUT OF THE ENGINE

VEHICLE EXPERIENCES SEVERE BOUNCE BETWEEN 70-75 MPH. FORD HAS CONFIRMED ISSUE AND HAS STATED IT IS A "CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE". ISSUE WAS REPORTED TO DEALER AND FORD AT TIME OF PURCHASE. BOUNCE IS VERY PRONOUNCED AND VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE DURING OPERATION.
