2019 Ford F-250 SD: fuel pump failure

Filed Nov 2, 2026 · Brakes, Engine · AR

My 2019 Ford F-250 diesel truck stopped running and had to be towed. The high-pressure fuel pump failed and sent contamination through the entire fuel system. The dealership first replaced the fuel injectors, then later said the whole fuel system had to be replaced. Ford and the dealership blamed fuel contamination and refused to cover it under warranty, so I paid for the repairs myself. This fuel pump problem made the truck shut off without warning, which is a safety danger. Also, after the second repair, the dealership told me the brakes were not working properly. I have not driven the truck since. It was towed to another shop. In total, I paid $18,865.05 out of my own pocket for these fuel system repairs.

On October 9, 2026 at approximately 8:30 AM, my 2019 Ford F-250 6.7L Power Stroke diesel, with 76,512 miles, suffered a catastrophic high-pressure fuel injection pump failure while traveling approximately 55 mph on FM 3351 near Camp Stanley, Texas. The vehicle displayed “Speed Limited” and “Reduced Engine Power” warnings, then lost throttle response and propulsion and the engine shut down while moving. Steering and braking effort increased substantially after the engine stopped. The truck would crank but would not restart. Alamo Diesel Service, an independent diesel repair facility, confirmed no fuel-rail pressure, fuel leaking in the engine valley, and that the injection pump had “blown and cracked the head.” Inspection revealed metallic debris and extensive fuel-system contamination requiring replacement/repair of the pump, injectors, rails, fuel lines, return lines and filters, plus cleaning of the tank and cooler. The estimate is $11,193.97. Diagnostic codes included P0087 (Fuel Rail/System Pressure Too Low) and P2291. P0087 freeze-frame data recorded the vehicle at 54.68 mph and 1,300 RPM, confirming the fuel-pressure failure occurred while driving. There were no prior fuel-system problems and the fuel filters were recently replaced. I am concerned because there is a long, documented history of failures involving this type of high-pressure diesel fuel pump, including failures that can introduce metal into the fuel system and cause loss of propulsion. Ford has also recalled certain later-model 6.7L Super Duty trucks for high-pressure fuel pump failures that can cause loss of drive power. I am requesting the federal safety agency evaluate whether my 2019 failure may be related to a broader safety defect. Ford has been notified under case CXH-09644112-L1W2N0 but has not inspected the vehicle. The vehicle and failed components are currently available for inspection.

the federal safety agency Vehicle Safety Complain To whom it may concern, My Name is [XXX] I am submitting this complaint regarding my 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty equipped with the 6.7L Power Stroke diesel engine (VIN: [XXX]). At approximately 137,900 miles, my vehicle suddenly lost engine power while driving and stalled without warning, creating a serious safety hazard. After stalling, the truck would not restart and had to be towed to a repair facility. The repair shop diagnosed a catastrophic failure of the diesel high-pressure fuel injection pump. According to the repair invoice, fine metallic flakes were found throughout the entire fuel system, contaminating the fuel lines, fuel tank, injectors, and related components. Because of this contamination, the shop determined that the entire fuel system required replacement, including replacement of all eight fuel injectors, cleaning of the fuel tank and fuel lines, replacement of the fuel filter, and installation of an upgraded diesel injection pump. The estimated repair cost exceeded $11,000, resulting in a significant financial burden. I understand that Ford Safety Recall 24S78 addresses a high-pressure fuel pump issue on certain 2020–2022 Ford Super Duty trucks equipped with the same 6.7L Power Stroke diesel engine. Although my 2019 model is not included in the recall, my vehicle experienced what appears to be a very similar failure that resulted in sudden loss of engine power while driving and complete contamination of the fuel system. I am not asserting that my vehicle is covered by the current recall. Rather, I respectfully request that the federal safety agency investigate whether the same or a substantially similar defect may also affect certain 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty vehicles equipped with the 6.7L Power Stroke diesel engine. If the investigation determines that these vehicles are affected by the same safety defect, I ask that the recall be expanded accordingly. I have retained the repair invoice documenting the diagnosis INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA

Original Fuel pump stated intermittent long cracks about 35,000 miles. And continues to do so. It seems like FORD uses the all time favorite “ we cannot recreate the issue” in order to send the customer on their way and not take ANY responsibility whatsoever ,WOW! Its rediculous that they don’t want to acknowledge the issue after thousands of customers complain. Our whole family has been riding in this vehicle when the truck experienced the truck lag and turn off at highway speeds. Does someone have to be hurt or killed by this for this company to finally own up? I hope none does!!! Make it right FORD!!! Yet they changes and updated the newer trucks pumps after this, why? REDICULOUS

My husband was driving our 2019 F250 on the highway at over 75 mph and the truck totally shut down/stalled without warning, could have killed him or another person, lucky he was able to coast to the shoulder and stop, we took to the Ford dealership and was caused by the faulty CP4 fuel pump the truck was made with that has had class action lawsuits and recalls, we are out of pocket over $14,000 to rebuild entire fuel system due to the fact that fuel pump is NOT compatible with our diesel fuel leading to metal shavings build up in fuel system. Our truck still has no recall on this and it should and we should be reimbursed for the extremely expensive and lengthy repair, this is a very dangerous issue. The mechanic also stated he "duplicated" the stall when he go on the highway and hit speeds over 60 mph, thank goodness he is ok as well.

2019 Ford F-250 original fuel pump or related part connected cause hard and prolonged starting in vehicle. Prolonged starts can damage other parts if left unfixed. This is a Ford manufacturing issue and could cause a person possible harm from an unknown development from the pump and related affected parts. Dont wait until humans are injured to address this problem especially when dealing with potential combustible explosive materials.

After sitting for extended durations the engine experiences a no start or long crank condition. Research and discussion with local mechanic indicate this is an issue with a failed/failing fuel pump and/or fuel pump module. It is my understanding a recall exists for similar failures on other ford models.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-250. The contact stated that while driving approximately 75 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power and almost stalled. The contact pulled over and stopped and the vehicle stalled. The contact attempted to restart the vehicle however, the vehicle failed to restart. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a dealer and diagnosed with fuel pump failure; however, due to the cost of the repair the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the high-pressure fuel pump had failed, and the entire fuel system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The contact researched online and related the failure to the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 24V957000 (Fuel System, Diesel); however, the VIN was not included. The contact called the manufacturer to request a reimbursement and it was confirmed that the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer referred the contact to the federal safety agency Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

My fuel pump on this truck went out at 130,000 miles. This repair is quoted at $12,500. When this pump went out it caused the truck to stall while driving. This truck stalled while crossing two lanes of traffic on a highway with a speed limit of 55-60mph. When I got into the turn, I had to coast across the two lines of traffic with no throttle due to the malfunction. Luckily, there was no collision. However, it was a very close call at high speeds.
