The first and only notification received was the April 5, 2025 email. The 2000 F350 did experience issues of stalling on the road many times. After several thousand dollars of repairs, the camshaft position sensor was replaced by a commercial diesel mechanic. No warnings of any kind were displayed. The truck stalled on the freeway ramp and other streets. These issues occurred since 2000 when the truck was purchased. The lack of notification and choice of fix caused danger and a lot of repair costs. This is unacceptable.

I am replacing the fuel tank for the fourth time on my 2000 ford 350 diesel rackbody dumptruck. I have had this truck leave me stalled dead in fast-moving, heavy traffic numerous times. The interior coating of the steel fuel tank is disintegrating and fouling the whole fuel system.
I have an f350 diesel year is 2000. In 2003 I had engine-sensor failure. Ford said it was the cam sensor and charged approx. $400 to repair. This started happening again in feb. 2006. I had private repair shop replace cams, still stalls,took truck to ford repair, replaced glowplugs and charged several hundred dollars, still having trouble. Seems to be worse in morning after non use for 12 hours.
