2015 FORD F-350 SD Complaints

FRONT WINDSHIELD HAS AIR COMING IN MAKING A HMMMMM SOUND AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. AFRAID WITH ENOUGH WIND, WINDSHIELD MAY POP OFF.

TL* THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE ENGINE ASSEMBLY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. BROADWAY FORD (1010 S MILITARY AVE, GREEN BAY, WI 54304, (920) 499-3131) WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM A WARRANTY TO PROVIDE A REMEDY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR FACILITY FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT ISSUED ANY RECALL CAMPAIGNS FOR THE ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING.

DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID REDUCTANT HEATER FAULT, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS ILLUMINATED AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER PREVIOUS RECALLS. RECURRING PROBLEM FOR FORD SUPER DUTY THAT NEEDS TO BE EXTENDED FOR THIS MODEL AS IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT PREVIOUS ATTENTION WAS GIVEN TO. IT IS A EMISSIONS PROBLEM THAT FAILS ON THESE TRUCKS.

THIS VEHICLE HAS 42,188 MILES TO DATE, AND HAS BEEN DOWN FOR OVER 8 WEEKS DUE TO SENSOR PROBLEMS INVOLVING THE EGR AND DEF SYSTEM. 4 TEMPERATURE SENSORS WERE INITIALLY REPLACED, AND THEN THE PARTICULATE SENSOR SHOWED A FAULT. THAT SENSOR WAS $146.55! AS OF TODAY, THAT SENSOR IS BAD AGAIN AND FORD STATES THERE IS A UPDATED ONE FOR $200.99! THE EMISSIONS WARRANTY RUNS OUT AS SOON AS YOU DRIVE IT OFF THE LOT! I HAVE SPENT NEARLY $800.00, AND THIS VEHICLE SITS, AS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS IT IN LIMP MODE. THIS VEHICLE IS MAINTAINED IN PERFECT CONDITION. IF THE EPA IS GOING TO REQUIRE THESE EMISSION STANDARDS, THEN VEHICLE MANUFACTURES SHOULD BE LIABLE FOR THESE COSTLY REPAIRS! I RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THERE ARE DELETE KITS TO ELIMINATE THIS ISSUE. HOWEVER THEY VOID THE WARRANTY AND IT IS UNLAWFUL TO DO SO. I CAN SEE WHY THEY ARE DOING THIS. FRANKLY, I DONT SEE THE POINT IN A "HANDFUL" OF US TRYING TO KEEP OURS RUNNING TO CODE, WHILE OTHERS ARE RIPPING THIS POLLUTION STUFF OFF. I DON;T SEE THE POINT. HOWEVER I AM TOTALLYL FRUSTRATED AT A $70,000.00 PICKUP THAT REMAINS BROKE DOWN. YOU CAN'T EVEN TRADE THEM OFF IF THEY ARE HAVING DEF ISSUES. I READ QUITE OFTEN ABOUT STATE, COUNTY AND CITY VEHICLES THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES, AND THAT KEEPS THEM OFF THE ROAD FOR SNOW PLOWING AND A HOST OF OTHER DUTIES. THIS ISSUE NEEDS ADDRESSED AND RESOLVED. TALK ABOUT A SAFETY ISSUE: DRIVING HOME IN THE DARK AND THIS THING DECIDES TO LIMP OFF THE ROAD. ALWAYS A WEEKEND OR AFTER HOURS. AND SERVICE SHOPS ARE SO FAR BEHIND IT TAKES WEEKS TO GET IN. THIS IS OUTLANDISH THAT THE US IS TRYING TO REDUCE EMISSIONS WHILE THE REST OF THE PLANET COULD CARE LESS. WHAT IS THE POINT? I AM A REASONABLE PERSON, BUT I DO NOT SEE THE POINT. CLUE ME IN PLEASE.

LOST ALL BRAKE PRESSURE WHILST DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR TO STOP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-350. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH AND MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE VEHICLE SHOOK AND THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED.

AT TIMES AND VERY FREQUENTLY TRUCK IS LOSING POWER TO ACCELERATE, VERY SLOW TO ACCELERATE, WILL NOT GO OVER 50MPH. THIS HAPPENS EVERYWHERE DOESN'T MATTER THE SPEED OR LOCATION. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE TURBO PSI READS 0, AND YOU CAN'T HEAR THE TURBO. A WARNING WILL COME UP THAT SAYS THE EXHAUST NEEDS TO SELF CLEAN AND DRIVE TO CLEAN. SOMETIMES IT WILL HAVE THICK SMOKE COME OUT THE EXHAUST THAT STINKS. SOMETIMES THE TRUCK WILL SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE OR BRAKE. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE TRUCK WILL NOT ACCELERATE SO THAT I CAN MERGE WITHOUT BEING REAR-ENDED. SOMETIMES IT WILL LOOSE ALL POWER SO I HAVE TO LET UP ON THE GAS AND TRY AGAIN SOFTLY AND IT WILL SLOWLY ACCELERATE THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT THAT TURNED GREEN FOR ME, AS I WAS ENTERING THE INTERSECTION I LOST ALL POWER AND WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED. THE FIRST HAPPENED WHEN I WAS TRYING TO GET INTO THE RIGHT SLOW LANE ON THE HIGHWAY FROM BEING PULLED OVER ON THE SHOULDER AND AS I STEPPED ON THE GAS AND THE TRUCK DID NOT ACCELERATE AT NORMAL SPEEDS AND I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE TO SPEED IN ORDER ENTER TRAFFIC IN TIME TO NOT GET REAR-ENDED BY THE CAR COMING UP IN THE LANE I WAS TRYING TO ENTER THANKFULLY THE OTHER DRIVER SWITCHED OUT OF THAT LANE.
