Engine stalling
In a june 7, 2005 letter, ford notified odi that it would be conducting a safety recall of approximately 180,000 ford f-super duty, excursion and e-series vehicles equipped with 6.0l diesel engines to correct two wiring related conditions that could result in engine stall (the federal safety agency recall no. 05v‑270, ford no. 05s34).the affected vehicles were built between september 29, 2003 and may 31, 2004.according to ford, vehicles with the conditions may stall without warning and may or may not restart.ford will instruct owners of vehicles included in the recall to take their vehicles to a dealer to have the fuel injector control module wire harness upgraded or replaced and or have a new injection control pressure sensor connector installed.during a may 2005 presentation to odi, ford identified a number of potential failure mechanisms that could affect engine performance in various segments of the subject vehicle population, including the wiring conditions addressed by 05v‑270.the wiring conditions, which both affect engine fueling, were the most likely conditions to result in engine stall.the recalled vehicles comprise approximately 43% of the subject vehicle population and account for 75 of the 113 odi reports that have a valid VIN (66%).the voq complaint rate for the recall population is 45/100k while the rate for vehicles outside the recall population is 17/100k and their trend (by date of receipt) is declining.based on the analysis, odi believes ford?s actions are sufficient to address the current safety risks and the investigation is thus closed.the closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by the federal safety agency that a safety related defect does not exist.further action will be taken if warranted by future circumstances.

Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
2004 ford f250 sd 6.0l sputters, lunges & dies out when idle, waiting in traffic or driving slowly. Luckily, it's been starting right back up. It has been occurring quite often lately. Looked up possible causes and found recall 05v270000 from 2005, which seems to be the exact issue I am having. Called ford and was told there are zero recalls pertaining to this truck and that that particular recall does not include my truck. I have seen many of the same complaints about this same exact vehicle and how this issue hadn't been covered under said recall. I have the federal safety agency recall no ea05003, but it has timed out and is no longer available for viewing on this site. Please realize that all these same vehicle owners are having the same dangerous issue and it isn't being taken seriously by ford or the federal safety agency.
Tl* the contact owns a 2004 ford f-250 sd. While driving at various speeds, the vehicle suddenly shut off. After restarting the engine, the vehicle operated as normal. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the cac tube was replaced, but the failure persisted. In 2014, the vehicle was taken to and independent mechanic. The technician replaced the fuel pressure regulator, the fuel injection control module, and one glow plug. The contact indicated that the failures continued to occur. The manufacturer was notified of the failures and the contact was informed that the VIN was not included in the federal safety agency campaign number: 05v270000 (electrical system). The contact indicated that the vehicle experienced the same failure listed in the recall. The failure mileage was 85,000.
We have been having on and off problems for about a year with our vehicle stalling while driving. The vehicle would start up but only go about 3 blocks and then stall again. We have replaced the ficm. Vehicle seemed of for a few months and now we are having a problem with it running rough at low idle speeds and missing while driving and running rough. We have been told its the icp sensor and there may be a recall on these part.I called ford today and our vehicle doesn not fall under this recall but yet we have had the same problems with the ficm amd icp (recall05s34) can you please check and see if any other 2004 ford f250 super duties are having issues also that ford is not fixing?????
My truck started to stall intermittently, I've had it to the dealer to have numerous repairs performed. I saw the federal safety agency campaign number: 05v270000 which references ford recall no. 05s34. I called to inquire at west brothers ford in sullivan mo. And was told my truck has no recalls. I called ford customer service and the first person said the recall expired and my truck was no longer under warranty. The second person said my truck wasn't affected because the recall said "certain" vehicles. My truck falls in the manufacture dates listed on the recall, has the 6.0 engine and is stalling now. I have owned my truck since new and it has not had this work performed on it. I would like an explanation of what "certain" vehicles apply to this recall and why mine doesn't. I would also like my truck fixed or reimbursed by ford, unless they can show why my truck doesn't need the work done. This is a safety matter. Thank you. ## VIN passed ## ford f250 super duty 2004 ##

Our 2004 f250 diesel 4x4 super duty was parked in the driveway overnight, properly plugged in due to the cold. A neighbor woke us up to state it was on fire. The entire front and interior of the truck was engulfed in flames before the fire department arrived. After it was extinguished, the county fireman pointed the believed the point of ignition appeared to be at the firewall on the drivers side due to the fact that the master brake cylinder & battery were disintegrated. Plus the secondary battery & radiator were partially intact which are in the front. The fire dept stated that if it had been a frontal point of ignition due to the block heater the radiator & battery on front passenger side would've burned first due to aluminum materials.

In 2004 I purchased this vehicle brand new. Subsequent expenses to maintain this vehicle in working condition have been extensive. 11/16/05- fuel injector wiring repair, exhaust pressure replacement, air cooler duct replacement (warranty) 11/1/06 - water in fuel light, throttle unexplained acceleration. 1/8/07- runaway throttle stalling, hesitation. 10/31/07- stalling, hesitation replaced main wire harness. Replaced elbow on turbo.12/5/08- egr cooler failed, turbo had water and rust, replaced same. 10/15/09- replaced starter ficm module. 1/15/10 replaced ipr valve & vgt solenoid, egr cooler failed again. 6/8/10- diesel head stud parts for repair. 6/24/10 - regulatory & kit, gasket-cylinder. 7/7/10- head stud modify. 7/20/10- replaced high pressure oil pump & power steering pump. I have spent $15,135.17 more for repairs that seem to be repetitive and very expensive. Based on the repair record I think that even you would say that there is something very wrong with this vehicle's engine. I have had this truck for eight years and have finally contacted ford motor company only to learn that they are unable to assist with the cost of any repairs beyond the normal warranty provisions.
I bought this 2004 ford f-250,6.0 diesel in may 2010 with 160k miles on it because lots of people told me to buy a diesel it would give me better performance than gas. I have had nothing but troubles ever since. It started not starting about 2 weeks after I bought it. The ford house is no help at all. Ive had it there several times and all it done was cost me money. It has never stopped running driving down the road like the other complaints iv'e read. But it has left me stranded 50 or 75 times, sometimes it will run perfect for months and all at once it wont start. Showing no codes ford says they cant do a thing. In july last summer it did it 1500 miles from home on vacation. I had a wrecker take it to a shop and $7500.00 and 6 weeks later they had put a new engine in it (said the camshaft broke and scored the piston wall) I came home now 6 months later its doing it again. I cant afford to take it to ford, I cant trade it. What to do??
