I have over 118 pages of repairs dealing from electrical, suspension, engine failure, turbo, fluid leakage, oil cooler failure. Ejectors, glow plugs and counting. They continue to reoccur time after time and dealer will not cover. I met alot of consumers that has the same vehicle and they all are having the same problem. I know that ford has sued the designer of the 6.0 engine and won billions but will not attempt to assist the consumer. The right thing to do is, if you know that if there's a problem with a problem why not assist the consumer in correcting instead of doing a patch job. They will not attempt to do the right thing unless someone force them to do so. Thanks
The ficm (fuel injector control module) on the 6.0l powerstrokes are a known item to fail. They lose voltage and make injectors not work, which shuts off the vehicle. This can happen at any time while at an idle or going down the highway. Once this happens, the truck shuts off and you lose power steering and braking ability. Mine shut off while going down the road several times now, but ford does not want to warranty it. My small town ford dealership replaces several of these parts a week. Does someone have to die for them to issue a recall on these?

Speedometer and tachometer would not indicate the correct speed or RPM. Driving on the highway the speedometer will drop to lower speed or will get stuck on certain speed. The tachometer will also drop to zero while you still have power.
