My truck starting losing power little by little over a short period of time. The check engine light came on & I took it to the ford dealership.they advised me that the egr system was failing & the cost is $2500.00. They also told me that ford knew about the problem & should have recalled this problem..now I can't drive my truck without worrying about engine failure (until it's fixed)..interstate travel is just about non=existent for now..I will not let my wife drive it anymore for now...this truck only has 75,000 miles on it & for now is not safe to drive anywhere but short distances...

Truck runs then when you stop the truck in hot weather, it will not restart for about 1 hour. Truck needs to cool down before restarting. And no one can figure out what problem is and fix it correctly.
Tl*the contact owns a 2006 ford f-350. After refueling the vehicle he attempted to start the vehicle but it would not start. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the fuel filter and egr valve were replaced. The failure continued to recur each time he attempted to start the vehicle. The vehicle was taken back to another authorized dealer where they were unable to diagnose the failure; therefore, it was not repaired. He also stated that white smokes was coming out of the exhaust pipe. The failure mileage was unknown and the current mileage was 33,000.

F-350 egr cooler went bad and smoked up entire neighborhood. Other motorists could not see as the smoke emitted from my f-350 was like a very very thick fog. I contacted ford, who knows about the ongoing and extensive problem, but they refuse to do anything but "document" the problem and want the federal safety agency to make it a recall. Apparently there are a lot of other f-350 owners with the same problem. This is very dangerous. I'm not sure if the fumes that are emitted from this problem are safe either.

I purchased a new 2006 ford f-350 diesel truck from monaco ford in glastonbury, ct. The vehicle now has 52,000 miles and has been in for service twice for lack of power. The service dept at monaco says the problem is that the gas tank is deteriorating & the fuel pump is compromised. I have researched the problem and found numerous complaints from ford owners re: this exact issue. Ford refuses to take responsibility. They insist that the problem is fuel, not their product. I do not use bio-diesel fuel or buy from discount fuel suppliers. How can so many owners have the identical problem? Ford motor company needs to recall these vehicles. Suddenly loosing power on the highway in a large, heavy truck because an inferior part was used, is a real safety issue. I respectfully request that you register this complaint and look into the issue of recalling deteriorating gas tanks in ford products. *tr updated 11/07/08.
