Takata inflators; my vehicle started all types of problems intermittent ones that cost me several thousand dollars never fixing the problem this is were it all began,,.my vehicle died going up fairly steep hill to grave yard, it immediately rolled back shoving a family members vehicle down hill a ways until they turned away from the cliff edge leaving me all alone.until going through a run off ditch stopping over it into 2 trees. I had no steering no brakes and thank god the trees were there to stop my truck if not their was a 100 foot cliff next.. I know nothing about recalls or such I just tried to fix my truck problem by problem as symptoms came on I have all types of recent receipts that all came from silverish dark maybe even gray matter stuff in the tank. When I get my bank statement I will itemize all and submit them when final cost is over.

Engine began bucking, sudden power loss and power steering and power brake loss. Mechanic conclusion was that the lining of the fuel tank had dislodged and caused the engine to foul, causing a sudden power loss. Dealer said they had never heard of the problem but we later learned they were very familiar with it, had done dozens of repairs (replacement of tank with poly tank) and that a "secret" repair bulletin had been issued ty ford to all dealers. This issue is now the subject of a class action lawsuit in new jersey. Google "ford fuel tank lining" for more info on the suit, but by not issuing a recall this issue is a potential safety concern. Had we been in heavier traffic and unable to get the vehicle to the side of the road there may have been a serious accident.

My 2004 ford f-350 6.0 diesel. Hesitate or surges while driving, and/or the engine may stall while driving at all speeds including highway speed, will lose power steering and brakes and when at a stop it will lunge forward. The engine may or may not restart after stall. I feel that this is a great safety concern I have almost lost control of my vehicle on a few occasions while towing my boat and going around corners. I have heard of other people having the same problems with their 2004 6.0 diesels. Please help!
