2002 ford 350 developed problems with the braking system.*mr the consumer stated even under moderate braking the front rotors warped which caused brake and handling problems. The brakes have been an ongoing problem. The belt tensioner and battery was replaced. The check engine light illuminated.
With truck in park I would start engine and truck would instantly go to 5,000 RPM by itself and stay there. I could turn ignition off pull out key and truck would run by itself for 10-30 second and then die. I would hate for this to happen to someone on the highway and not be able to turn truck off.
I have a ford f-350 diesel that and I have experienced and extreme loss of fuel economy. I have gone from 15 mpgto 8mpg. Ford said that they cannot find any problems with the engine. The engine also overheats while puling a light trailer. The "wait to start light" also stays on. The dealer said they are aware of that problem.
