2015 Ford F-350 SD complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-350 SUPERDUTY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS HIGH SPEEDS, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE SHOOK UNCONTROLLABLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT SLOWED THE VEHICLE DOWN UNTIL THE SHAKING CEASED AND RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE CONTACT DROVE TO LARRY H. MILLER FORD LINCOLN DRAPER (11442 LONE PEAK PKWY, DRAPER, UT 84020, 801-590-0561) WHERE A FEW UNKNOWN PARTS WERE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. SINCE THE INITIAL REPAIR, THE CONTACT HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO SEVERAL INDEPENDENT MECHANICS AND WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

I WAS TOWING A TRAILER ON A HWY 52 IN COLORADO WHEN I HIT A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD. THE TRUCK BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY I LOST CONTROL AND WENT IN TOO THE OTHER LANE IT SHOOK UNTIL I CAME TO COMPLETE STOP. IT HAS DONE IT 5 TIMES SINCE THEN I HONESTY DON'T WANT TO DRIVE THE TRUCK ANY MORE. THE TRUCK ONLY HAS 37K MILES ON IT AND NEW SHOCK AND STEERING DAMPER. THIS NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED I DID A GOOGLE SEARCH ON THIS THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE CASES JUST LIKE MINE GOOGLE DEATH WOBBLE. SOME ONE IS GOING TO GET HURT THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN.

I OWN A 2015 FORD F-350SD WITH APPROXIMATELY 42,000 MILES THAT I BOUGHT FROM THE FORD DEALER IN SEPTEMBER OF 2018. SO, I HAVEN'T EVEN OWNED THE TRUCK A YEAR YET. ON JULY 12, 2019 I WAS DRIVING DOWN I15 HEADED TO A CAMPING TRIP. ALL OF A SUDDEN, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN A MESSAGE SAYING REDUCED ENGINE POWER AND MY TRUCK WENT FROM 70MPH TO 5MPH AND JUST BARELY GOT ME OFF THE INTERSTATE. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO THE FORD DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT. THEY DIAGNOSED IT AND SAID THERE'S METAL THROUGHOUT THE FUEL SYSTEM, THE HPFP IS GOING BAD AND WEARING OUT, THERE IS ALSO RUST AND WATER IN THE FUEL RAIL. IN ORDER TO FIX THE PROBLEM, THE BILL WILL BE A LITTLE OVER $11,000. IN DECEMBER RIGHT AFTER I BOUGHT THE TRUCK, I TOOK IT INTO THE FORD DEALER AND HAD THEM FULLY SERVICE THE TRUCK, CHECK THE OIL, CHANGE BOTH FUEL FILTERS, ETC. I HAVE ALL RECEIPTS TO SHOW FORD THAT I HAVE MAINTAINED THE TRUCK. I HAVE FULLY MAINTAINED THE TRUCK AND HAVE DRAINED THE WATER SEPARATOR MONTHLY SINCE I PURCHASED THE TRUCK. I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING ON MY PART TO MAKE SURE THE TRUCK IS WELL CARED FOR AND MAINTAINED. I HAVE NOW BEEN FIGHTING WITH FORD CORPORATE FOR 5 WEEKS NOW AND THEY ARE SAYING THIS ISSUE ISN'T COVERED BY WARRANTY. IT'S A SHAME THAT YOU BUY A TRUCK FROM THE FORD DEALER WITH A 100,000 MILE WARRANTY AND NOW FORD IS CLAIMING THAT THIS ISSUE ISN'T COVERED BY WARRANTY. THIS IS A KNOWN FAULTY FUEL PUMP THAT WEARS OUT PREMATURELY AND IS COSTING CONSUMERS TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS T

2015 F350 4X4 6.7 WE TOW A 12K TRAILER GOOSENECK. THIS PROBLEM OCCURES LOADED AND UNLOADED. ANY BUMP OVER 50 MPH ON THE DRIVER TIRE WILL CAUSE A VIOLENT SHAKE THAT WILL PERSIST THOUGH ACCELERATION STEERING INPUTS AND BRAKING, SOFT OR HARD. ONLY SLOWING TO BELOW 45 SOMETIMES 35 WILL STOP THE SHAKING. DURING THE SHAKE STEERING IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE, AND ATTPETING TO KEEP STRAIGHT RESULTED IN TWISTING THE STEERING WHEEL OUT OF ALIGNMENT. THUS FAR WE HAVE REPLACED STEERING STABALIZER. TRACK BAR, AND ASSOSIATED BUSHING AND BALL JOINT, TIRES, MULTIPLE ALIGNMENTS, SWAY BAR LINKS, BALLJOINTS, SHOCKS. EACH REPAIR MAKES THE PROBLEM SEEMINGLY BETTER FOR A TIME BUT WITHIN A WEEK IT RETURNS. WE ARE A DANGER ON THE ROAD AND HAVE SENSE STOPPED DRIVING UNTIL A HARD RESOLUTION IS FOUND.

DEATH WOBBLE GOING AT HIGH RATE OF SPEED ON INTERSTATE AND TRUCK BEGAN TO WOBBLE VIOLENTLY AFTER HITTING BUMP ON ROAD, ONLY FIXED BY EXTREME SLOWING DOWN. THIS IS AN UNACCEPTABLE ISSUE THAT FORD NEEDS TO FIX, I HAD MY FAMILY IN TRUCK AT TIME.

HAD VEHICLE 8 MONTHS. DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 95 PULLING MY CAMPER, "LOW FUEL PRESSURE" LIGHT CAME ON, PULLED OVER IMMEDIATELY. SAW SMOKE, THEN FIRE. GOT OUT OF TRUCK WITH MY DOG AND CALLED 911. REPORT ATTACHED.

FRONT WINDSHIELD HAS AIR COMING IN MAKING A HMMMMM SOUND AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. AFRAID WITH ENOUGH WIND, WINDSHIELD MAY POP OFF.

TL* THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE ENGINE ASSEMBLY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. BROADWAY FORD (1010 S MILITARY AVE, GREEN BAY, WI 54304, (920) 499-3131) WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM A WARRANTY TO PROVIDE A REMEDY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR FACILITY FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT ISSUED ANY RECALL CAMPAIGNS FOR THE ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60628. *BF $9349.20 IN REPAIRS. CONSUMER STATED THE FIRST ENGINE BLEW A HOLE ON THE SIDE AT 60,628 MILES. IT WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. ENGINE WAS REPLACED AS WELL AS CONVERTER ASSEMBLY, DUE TO THE ENGINE OIL GETTING INTO THE CONVERTERS AT 61629 THE ENGINE WENT BAD DUE TO THE INTAKE MANIFOLD BEING REPLACED.*JB

DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID REDUCTANT HEATER FAULT, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS ILLUMINATED AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER PREVIOUS RECALLS. RECURRING PROBLEM FOR FORD SUPER DUTY THAT NEEDS TO BE EXTENDED FOR THIS MODEL AS IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT PREVIOUS ATTENTION WAS GIVEN TO. IT IS A EMISSIONS PROBLEM THAT FAILS ON THESE TRUCKS.

THIS VEHICLE HAS 42,188 MILES TO DATE, AND HAS BEEN DOWN FOR OVER 8 WEEKS DUE TO SENSOR PROBLEMS INVOLVING THE EGR AND DEF SYSTEM. 4 TEMPERATURE SENSORS WERE INITIALLY REPLACED, AND THEN THE PARTICULATE SENSOR SHOWED A FAULT. THAT SENSOR WAS $146.55! AS OF TODAY, THAT SENSOR IS BAD AGAIN AND FORD STATES THERE IS A UPDATED ONE FOR $200.99! THE EMISSIONS WARRANTY RUNS OUT AS SOON AS YOU DRIVE IT OFF THE LOT! I HAVE SPENT NEARLY $800.00, AND THIS VEHICLE SITS, AS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS IT IN LIMP MODE. THIS VEHICLE IS MAINTAINED IN PERFECT CONDITION. IF THE EPA IS GOING TO REQUIRE THESE EMISSION STANDARDS, THEN VEHICLE MANUFACTURES SHOULD BE LIABLE FOR THESE COSTLY REPAIRS! I RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THERE ARE DELETE KITS TO ELIMINATE THIS ISSUE. HOWEVER THEY VOID THE WARRANTY AND IT IS UNLAWFUL TO DO SO. I CAN SEE WHY THEY ARE DOING THIS. FRANKLY, I DONT SEE THE POINT IN A "HANDFUL" OF US TRYING TO KEEP OURS RUNNING TO CODE, WHILE OTHERS ARE RIPPING THIS POLLUTION STUFF OFF. I DON;T SEE THE POINT. HOWEVER I AM TOTALLYL FRUSTRATED AT A $70,000.00 PICKUP THAT REMAINS BROKE DOWN. YOU CAN'T EVEN TRADE THEM OFF IF THEY ARE HAVING DEF ISSUES. I READ QUITE OFTEN ABOUT STATE, COUNTY AND CITY VEHICLES THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES, AND THAT KEEPS THEM OFF THE ROAD FOR SNOW PLOWING AND A HOST OF OTHER DUTIES. THIS ISSUE NEEDS ADDRESSED AND RESOLVED. TALK ABOUT A SAFETY ISSUE: DRIVING HOME IN THE DARK AND THIS THING DECIDES TO LIMP OFF THE ROAD. ALWAYS A WEEKEND OR AFTER HOURS. AND

LOST ALL BRAKE PRESSURE WHILST DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR TO STOP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-350. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH AND MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE VEHICLE SHOOK AND THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE AND STATED THAT IT NEEDED A REDUCTANT HEATER CONTROL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE DID NOT MEET THE CRITERIA FOR THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 56,000.

AT TIMES AND VERY FREQUENTLY TRUCK IS LOSING POWER TO ACCELERATE, VERY SLOW TO ACCELERATE, WILL NOT GO OVER 50MPH. THIS HAPPENS EVERYWHERE DOESN'T MATTER THE SPEED OR LOCATION. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE TURBO PSI READS 0, AND YOU CAN'T HEAR THE TURBO. A WARNING WILL COME UP THAT SAYS THE EXHAUST NEEDS TO SELF CLEAN AND DRIVE TO CLEAN. SOMETIMES IT WILL HAVE THICK SMOKE COME OUT THE EXHAUST THAT STINKS. SOMETIMES THE TRUCK WILL SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE OR BRAKE. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE TRUCK WILL NOT ACCELERATE SO THAT I CAN MERGE WITHOUT BEING REAR-ENDED. SOMETIMES IT WILL LOOSE ALL POWER SO I HAVE TO LET UP ON THE GAS AND TRY AGAIN SOFTLY AND IT WILL SLOWLY ACCELERATE THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT THAT TURNED GREEN FOR ME, AS I WAS ENTERING THE INTERSECTION I LOST ALL POWER AND WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED. THE FIRST HAPPENED WHEN I WAS TRYING TO GET INTO THE RIGHT SLOW LANE ON THE HIGHWAY FROM BEING PULLED OVER ON THE SHOULDER AND AS I STEPPED ON THE GAS AND THE TRUCK DID NOT ACCELERATE AT NORMAL SPEEDS AND I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE TO SPEED IN ORDER ENTER TRAFFIC IN TIME TO NOT GET REAR-ENDED BY THE CAR COMING UP IN THE LANE I WAS TRYING TO ENTER THANKFULLY THE OTHER DRIVER SWITCHED OUT OF THAT LANE.

THE CAR COULDN'T DRIVE ON HIGHWAY, SMOKE AND HUGE TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAKAGE, TOWED TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALER DEALER NOTE "INSPECTED AND FOUND BROKEN TRANS COOLER LINE CAUSING CONCERN, REPLACED TRANS COOLER LINES, CLEANED OFF, TOPPED OFF FLUID AND ROAD TESTED, OK" FORD F-350 2015, ODOMETER 4065 MILES

THE ENTIRE BODY OF THE TRAFFIC IS SPECKLED WITH RUST . THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM HAS THE SAME ISSUES THAT WE HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP REPEATEDLY WITH AUTOMATIC START AND THEY CANNOT FIX IT ALSO IT TELLS US OTHER THINGS ARE WRONG THAT OR NOT . WE KEEP TAKING IT BACK BUT THEY KEEP TELLING US IT'S FIXED MINUTES NOT.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE INSTRUMENT WARNING CLUSTER BEGINS TO ALERT OF ENGINE TEMP, LOW OIL PRESSURE, TRACTION CONTROL THE AIR CONDITION SYSTEM FAILS SO THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED. THE RESTART CAN OCCUR IMMEDIATELY ON OCCASION BUT TYPICALLY WILL TAKE AT LEAST 30 MINUTES SOMETIMES SEVERAL HOURS. THE ISSUE IS REOCCURRING AND PLACED IN FORD SHOPS TO HAVE IT RETURNED WITH NO TROUBLE FOUND OR COULD NOT REPLICATE ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-350. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE ENGINE REDUCTION WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL DEALER (DUNNING MOTOR SALES, 9108 SOUTHGATE RD, CAMBRIDGE, OH 43725, (740) 439-4465) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBERS: CAS15099236 AND CAS15365409. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000. *TT *JS

EXHAUST FILTER CLEANING WHEN THAT WARNING COMES ON MY TRUCKS ENGINE IS REALLY ROUGH AND SHAKES. THIS IS WHEN DRIVING TO CLEAR THE EXHAUST FILTER.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE AND SUNROOF GLASS BLEW OUT.

DEATH WOBBLE MANY TIMES. VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL. NOT COOL IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON WAY TO BOSTON (65 MPH). TIRES ARE PROPERLY INFLATED. VEHICLE HAS BEEN HAVING PROBLEM SINCE 45,000 MILES AND NOW HAS 55,000 MILES ON IT. DEALER HAS ONLY MADE "SUGGESTIONS" ON WHAT TO DO TO CORRECT PROBLEM. WORRIED I WILL BE KILLED OR KILL SOMEONE WHEN DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

ALREADY MADE COMPLAINT ON THIS SAME [XXX] ISSUE AND IT DONE IT YESTERDAY 6 OR 7 TIMES. TURN THE WHEEL AND WILL NOT RETURN TO CENTER. YOU HAVE TO FIGHT THE WHEEL TO TRY AND KEEP CONTROL OF THE TRUCK! IT FEELS AS THOUGH YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE AND AS FAST AS IT HAPPENS IT COMES IT STOPS DOING IT. PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

STEERING WHEEL WILL RANDOMLY STICK WHEN TURNING RIGHT OR LEFT. WHEN THIS HAPPENS IT FEELS LIKE FLAT TIRE AND YOU HAVE TO MUSCLE THE STEERING WHEEL BACK THE OPPOSITE WAY AND THEN YOU CAN'T CONTROL THAT. JUST HAD FRONT END REBUILT AT TRI-STATE FORD IN MARYVILLE MISSOURI WHERE WE PURCHASED IT NEW AND DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. DONE IT 3 TIMES YESTERDAY APRIL 19 2018 ALMOST CAUSING US THE HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE. AT A STOP SIGN TURNING LEFT IT STUCK CAUSING US TO VEER INTO OPPOSING LANE IN FRONT OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. FOUGHT TO CORRECT THIS AND THEN IT CAUSED US TO SHOOT BACK RIGHT ONTO THE SHOULDER. WE SPENT ALMOST $1,200 DOLLARS TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND IT HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED AND OF COURSE IT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY 😡

TRUCK IS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD AND RECENTLY SERVICED AT FORD DEALERSHIP. AFTER RECENT SERVICE THE TRUCK WOULDN'T START. WHEN THE TRUCK WAS CHECKED BOTH LARGE FACTORY INSTALLED BATTERIES HAD CATASTROPHIC FAILURE LEADING TO BATTERY ACID CORROSION DESTROYING WIRING, POTENTIAL THE THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND OTHER ELECTRONICS THAT WERE EXPOSED TO BATTERY ACID AND CORROSION. THERE IS TREMENDOUS DAMAGE TO THE TRUCK AND A LARGE CHEMICAL SPILL FROM THE ACID. DEALERSHIP QUOTED OVER $1800 IN DAMAGES. TRUCK WAS A FIRE AND CHEMICAL HAZARD BECAUSE THE FAILURE WAS HIDDEN BY A FACTORY COVER, A HUGE COPPER CABLE WAS FREE TO ARC AND COULD HAVE IGNITED THE BATTERY OR CAUSED A DANGEROUS ELECTICAL FIRE.

WHEN TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS VEHICLE BEGINS TO BOUNCE. THE BOUNCE IS CLEARLY COMING FROM REAR END OF VEHICLE. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH INTO THE ISSUE AND HAVE FOUND OTHER YEAR HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND IS SOLVED BY A DAMPER ATTACHED TO THE TRAILER HITCH.

WHILE MAKING TURNS YOU ARE UNABLE TO TURN WHEEL BACK STRAIGHT AS IT LOCKS UP IN CITY DRIVING. WAS TOLD BY FORD DEALER WHERE WE BOUGHT TRUCK NEW THAT WE NEEDED TRACK BAR BUSHING AND BALL JOINTS. DRAG LINK BAR. TIE ROD END REPLACEMENT BOTH OUTER TIE RODS. THIS HAS BEEN AND ISSUE FOR SEVERAL OF OUR FRIENDS ALSO BUT THEY CAUGHT THERE'S UNDER WARRANTY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-350. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, ALL OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WARNING INDICATORS REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (KALISPELL FORD, 2000 ROSE CROSSING, KALISPELL, MT 59901), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

AN OAHU, HAWAII US GOVERNMENT WORKER GOT IN HIS F-350 SUPER DUTY XL DRIVER SEAT AT 1000 HRS, 14 OCT 2017, SHUT THE DOOR NORMALLY AND THE BACK WINDOW SHATTERED. THERE WAS A WITNESS WATCHING THE INCIDENT WHO BACKS-UP THE CLAIM THAT THE BACK WINDOW SHATTERED AS STATED ABOVE/THE BACK WINDOW BROKE WITH NO APPARENT CAUSE.

I AM NOT SURE WHAT THE ISSUE IS WITH THE TRUCK; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO SHAKE OUT OF CONTROL WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING IT DOWN THE ROAD. YOU ALMOST HAVE TO COME TO A STOP TO MAKE THE VIOLENT SHAKING END. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN TO CHENOWETH FORD IN CLARKSBURG, WV FOR REPAIRS, BUT THE ISSUE STILL REMAINS. I HAVE BEEN A PASSENGER IN THE TRUCK WHEN THE SHAKING HAS OCCURRED, AND IF I HAD BEEN THE DRIVER, I DO NOT KNOW IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HAVE COMMANDED CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I HAVE READ THAT ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS CALLED THE "DEATH SHAKE" AND IS COMMON IN FORD PICKUPS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE BEFORE LIVES ARE TAKEN.

MY 2015 IS EXPERIENCING THE DEATH WOBBLE! IT'S WHEN THE PICKUP STARTS SHAKING VIOLENTLY AND YOU CAN'T HANG ON TO THE STEERING WHEEL! WITH THAT BEING SAID I HAVE PUT ON NEW SHOCKS, REPLACED THE TRACK BAR, NEW STEERING STABILIZER SHOCK, NEW SHOCKS, GOING TO GET A THIRD ALIGNMENT, AND NEW TIRES AND STILL HAVE THE DEATH WOBBLE! THE REST OF THE FRONT END IS IN GOOD SHAPE! I'M JUST ASKING FOR SOME HELP FROM FORD! THANK YOU!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-350 SD EQUIPPED WITH B.F. GOODRICH RIGID TRAIL T/A (NA) TIRES, SIZE: LT 245/75R17. WHILE THE CONTACT'S SON WAS DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE INADVERTENTLY PULLED TO THE RIGHT WITHOUT WARNING. UPON INSPECTING THE TIRES THE NEXT MORNING, THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE WAS FLAT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SPARE TIRE WAS PLACED ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THE ORIGINAL TIRE WAS TAKEN TO BE WATER TESTED FOR LEAKS, BUT NONE WERE FOUND. THERE WAS ALSO A CRACK IN THE RIM. THE VEHICLE AND TIRE WERE TAKEN TO KEYSTONE FORD (301 WALKER RD, CHAMBERSBURG, PA 17201 (717) 264-5104) FOR INSPECTION AND DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT TO TAKE PICTURES OF THE TIRE TO SEND TO THE FORD MANUFACTURER TO DETERMINE IF THE WOULD REPLACE THE RIM AND TIRE. THE CONTACT NOTIFIED THE MANUFACTURER OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 28,000 AND TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000.

FAULTY RADIATORS IN 2015 FORD TRUCKS.

2015 FORD F350 SUPER DUTY, FULL SIZE BED. THIS TRUCK WILL BOUNCE LIKE CRAZY ON THE HIGHWAY IF IT IS CONCRETE, OR ASPHALT COVERED CONCRETE. IT STARTS ABOUT 60MPH AND IF I SPEED UP IT WILL GO AWAY AT ABOUT 75MPH. THIS BOUNCE IS VERY FRUSTRATING AND MAKES ME UPSET, MAD AND EMBARRASSED THAT SUCH A NICE TRUCK THAT COST SO MUCH MONEY WOULD HAVE THIS ISSUE. IT IS NOT JUST MY TRUCK, BY FAR THERE ARE MANY, MANY, MANY OF THEM WITH THIS ISSUE AND NOT LIMITED TO LATE OR EARLY MODEL TRUCKS. SEARCH GOOGLE FOR THIS ISSUE AND YOU WILL BE AS SURPRISED AS I WAS TO HOW MANY THERE ARE AND HOW LONG THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON!!! I HAVE REPLACED THE SHOCKS WITH BILSTEIN SHOCKS, ADDED 2" LEVELING KIT TO FRONT SPRINGS, REPLACED STEERING DAMPER SHOCK WITH BILSTEIN ALSO, CHANGED TIRES AND RIMS 3 DIFFERENT TIMES WITH NO CHANGE IN ISSUE. THE ONLY THING THAT CHANGED WITH THE NEW BILSTEIN SHOCKS WAS NOT GOOD EITHER- NOW WITH THE NEW SHOCKS ON THE TRUCK BOUNCES MORE AND SOONER WITH MY MEDIUM SIZED DUMP TRAILER CONNECTED. BEFORE THE SHOCK CHANGE, IF THERE WAS A LOAD IN THE BED OR TRAILER CONNECTED THERE WAS NO BOUNCE TO DEAL WITH. I LOVE THIS TRUCK AND HAVE SPENT LOTS OF MONEY ON MAKING IT LOOK GREAT, NOW I WANT IT TO RIDE AND DRIVE GREAT ALSO. I GOT A PRETTY GOOD DEAL ON THIS TRUCK LAST YEAR AT A CAR LOT, NOW I AM UNDERSTANDING WHY!!!! I AM SURE THIS TRUCK WAS TRADED IN AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS FROM THE DEALER TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND THEY COULD NOT. I FEEL LIKE FORD HAS REALLY LET US DOWN HERE, I HAVE OWNED MANY WORK

PAINT CHIPING, AFTER ONE YEAR OF NORMAL DRIVING

AFTER PLACING THE VEHICLE IN PARK I LEFT TO GO INTO A BUILDING. ON MY RETURN THE VEHICLE WAS GONE AND WAS FOUND DOWN THE BLOCK AND WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. IT APPARENTLY DROVE OFF ON IT'S OWN. VIDEO OF THE ACCIDENT CONFIRMED THAT NO ONE WAS DRIVING. AS THE DRIVER, I DID PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENED. THE PARKING BREAK WAS NOT APPLIED. THE ONLY CONCLUSION WAS THAT SOME HOW THE VEHICLE SLIPPED INTO GEAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-350. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS REMAINED ACTIVATED AND WOULD NOT TURN OFF. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000.

AT TIMES WHILE DRIVING AT 45-60 MILES PER HOUR AND WHILE IN 6TH GEAR (AUTOMATIC) AFTER THE "CLEANING EXHAUST FILTER" MESSAGE COMES ON WHEN IT CLEANS THE EXHAUST TWICE WITHIN A 100 MILES, THE ENGINE WILL SHAKE AND KNOCKING/SPIKING NOISE AFTER THE SECOND CLEANING. THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY AND I AM UNABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM AT THE DEALERSHIP. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME BUT WHEN IT DOES IT FEELS LIKE YOU HAVE A LOOSE WHEEL AND IT WILL JERKING BACKWARDS AND FORTH. FORD SEEMS UNAWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND HAS NO REMEDIATION ON HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS STARTED AROUND 8000 MILES THE TRUCK HAS 32,000 MILES NOW.

WHEN VEHICLE IS GOING THRU REGEN RUNS EXTREMELY ROUGH SHAKING AND BUCKING .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FIFTH WHEEL SOLITUDE (NA) TRAVEL TRAILER BEING HAULED BY A 2015 FORD F-350. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A PREMATURE FAILURE WITH THE WIRES ASSOCIATED WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM. WHILE BRAKING, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DIFFICULT TO APPLY AND THE CONTACT HAD TO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE. THE REPAIR SHOP DIAGNOSED THAT THE WIRES RAN THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE AXLE, AND THE COATING WAS WORN AND CAUSED A SHORT WITH THE WIRES, WHICH CAUSED THE BRAKE FAILURE. THE MECHANIC REWIRED THE WIRES TO THE BACK SIDE OF THE AXLE, CLAMPED THE WIRES ON THE OUTSIDE, AND REPAIRED THE TRAVEL TRAILER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED NO REPAIR RECOMMENDATION AS WELL AS NO SOLUTION TO ENSURE THAT THE REPAIRS WERE SUFFICIENT. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000.

AT 40 TO 50 MPH THE TRUCK CAN EXPERIENCE LOSS OF POWER AND SEVERE "SHUDDERING" WE HAVE 2 2015'S THAT WE PURCHASED LAST SEPTEMBER AND BOTH ARE EXPERIENCE THE SAME ISSUE IT'S VERY SPORADIC SEEMS TO HAPPEN A FEW TIMES A WEEK. I'M CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MY COMPANY AS WE CAN BE PULLING TRAILERS AND CAN NOT HAVE THIS TYPE OF BEHAVIOR WHEN ON BUSY ROADS. FORD KNOWS THERE IS AN ISSUE AS STATED IN TSB 16-0041, BUT THEY WILL NOT ATTEMPT TO CORRECT IT UNLESS THEIR TECHS SEE IT HAPPEN..I HAVE ALREADY HAD IT INTO THE SHOP AND THEY COULDN'T SEE THE PROBLEM. IF YOU LOOK ON THE INTERNET IT APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM ON QUITE A FEW 2015'S..HERE IS ONE FORUM OF MANY HTTP://WWW.FORD-TRUCKS.COM/FORUMS/1381159-FORD-RELEASES-TSB-15-0088-FOR-2015-ACTIVE-REGENERATION-JACKHAMMER-VALVES-ISSUE-33.HTML

EXHAUST FLUID MESSAGE ON DASH THAT SPEED WILL BE LIMITED TO IN 50 MILES. WENT AND BOUGHT A NEW JUG OF BLUE DEF. IT TOOK 2 GALLONS TO FILL TO RUNNING OVER. THEN BEFORE I GOT TO THE KENAI, AK DEALER, IT SAYS ENGINE WILL IDLE UPON RESTART. THE KENAI, AK DEALER SAID UP AND DOWN STREAM NOX SENSORS HAD FAILED AND RESET THE CODES. 15 MILES LATER, I GET AND "EXHAUST SYSTEM FAILURE" ENGINE WILL IDLE SOON. MADE IT HOME(40 MILES AT 10PM AND RAINING) THEN IT SAYS ENGINE IDLED, CHECK OPERATOR MANUAL. BASICALLY IT THINKS MY DEF TANK IS EMPTY, BUT IT HAS ONLY 75 MILES ON A COMPLETELY FULL TANK.

DEF TANK FILLED AT 7300 MILES. AT 9600 MILES A "EXHAUST FLUID LOW" 50 MILES TIL ENGINE IDLE. PICKED UP EXHAUST FLUID AND REFILLED-ONLY 2 GALS ADDED TO OVERFLOWING. DID NOT RESET, WENT TO STANLEY FORD KENAI, AK. COUNTDOWN WENT ON, THEN"ENGINE IDLE AT NEXT RESTART" DEALER SAYS TO BAD NOX SENSORS, REPLACED AND CODES CLEARED. 15 MILES LATER, EXHAUST SYSTEM FAILURE" ENGINE WILL IDLE SOON" FORTUNATELY I MADE IT HOME IN THE DARK AND 40 MILES IN THE RAIN. NOW IT HAS GONE INTO THE "ENGINE IDLE" MODE AND "CHECK YOUR MANUAL" DEALER CALLED, TOW TRUCK CALLED, SOON TO BE GOING BACK TO DEALER.

2015 F350 6.7 DIESEL WITH 46,000 MILES THAT IS DOWN BECAUSE HPOP IS DEFECTIVE AND SPREADING MEDAL THROUGH SYSTEM. FORD HAS INSPECTED AND SAID IT IS BECAUSE OF WATER IN FUEL, EVEN THOUGH NO WARNING LIGHTS OR CODES ARE AVAILABLE. FORD PULLED SENSORS OUT OF ENGINE AND REJECTED REPAIR BECAUSE OF TARNISH ON SENSORS. THE ONLY CODES WERE FOR (LOW FUEL PRESSURE & REDUCED POWER). NO OTHER CODES. INITIAL INSPECTION REVEALED ABOUT 3/4 INCH OF WATER IN WATER SEPARATOR BUT NO LIGHT OR CODE. THE WARNINGS OCCURRED WHEN TRUCK WAS STARTED AND IT RAN ABOUT 100 FT BEFORE BEING SHUTDOWN AND TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM SINCE FORD OFFERS A REPAIR KIT FOR THIS ISSUE. TOTAL COST OF REPAIR IS BETWEEN $9500,00 & $12,500 DOLLARS AND THIS ON A TRUCK WHICH IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY THAT FORD WILL NOT HONOR. THE TRUCK WASN'T A YEAR OLD UNTIL MAY 2016 AND HAS BEEN DOWN FOR OVER FOUR MONTHS BECAUSE FORD WILL NOT REPAIR. THIS IS THE BOSCH C4 SERIES PUMP. *BF *TR *DT CONSUMER STATED HE HAD THE TRUCK REPAIRED AND HE SOLD IT. *JB

I HAVE A F350 2015 VEHICLE, HAVING AN ENGINE KNOCK NOISE AND HESITATION PROBLEMS RIGHT AFTER THE ENGINE KNOCKS. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THESE CONCERNS FIVE TIMES. THE DEALERSHIP IS SAYING IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO CALIFORNIA REGULATIONS. THERE IS A TSB TO THE CONCERN THAT I AM HAVING, BUT I DON'T THINK MY VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE THE HEADS REBUILT SINCE I JUST PURCHASED IT BACK IN DEC 2015. WHAT IS THE STATE DOING TO HAVE THIS CONCERN RESOLVE? I BROUGHT IT IN TWO DAYS AGO TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SINCE AFTER THE 4TH TIME OF THE ENGINE KNOCKED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THEY ENDED UP REPLACING A SENSOR. I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE FROM THE DEALERSHIP YESTERDAY AND ON MY WAY HOME, THE ENGINE KNOCKS TO HAPPEN AGAIN. I AM WAITING ON FMC TO CALL ME AND TELL ME WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO NOW. THE VEHICLE HAS TWO OTHER PROBLEMS A WINDSHIELD NOISE AT 60 TO 70 MILES PER HOUR ON WINDY DAYS. THEY RESEALED THE WINDSHIELD THE PROBLEM EXISTS. THEY ARE TELLING ME, THAT UNLESS THEY DUPLICATE THE ISSUE, THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING. I SHOWED THEM A VIDEO THAT I RECORDED DURING THE CONCERN HAPPENING, BUT THEY ARE IGNORING IT. I SHOWED THEM A VIDEO THAT SOMEONE ELSE POSTED ON YOU TUBE SAME CONCERN. HOWEVER, SINCE THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING THAT IS THEIR ANSWER. I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM OF THE TRANSMISSION, HARSH SHIFT AS SLOW SPEEDS SAME THING CAN'T DUPLICATE IS WHAT THE WORK ORDER FROM THE DEALERSHIP STATES. WHAT CAN I DO TO HAVE THIS VEHICLE LOOKED AT FOR THE CONCERNS I AM HAVING?

REAR WINDOW SHATTERED WHEN TURN REAR DEFORST ON

I WAS ON A VACATION TRIP TO DAYTONA BEACH FL. FROM THE DALLAS, TX AREA. I HAVE A DUAL AXLE RV. THIS BRAND NEW TIRE (TOWMAX) ON THE LEFT SIDE OF MY RV HAD LESS THAN 700 MILES ON IT WHEN IT EXPLODED. I WAS TRAVELING AT NO MORE THAN 65MPH. THE TIRE PRESSURE WAS CHECKED BEFORE I LEFT AND IT WAS AT 80PSI. THE SECOND TIRE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY RV HAD LESS THAN 1100 MILES WHEN IT EXPLODED. WE COULD HEAR THE EXPLOSION IN THE CAB OF MY TRUCK. WE HAD NOT BEEN ON THE ROAD FOR MORE THAN 20 MILES. AGAIN THE SPEED WAS NO MORE THAN 65MPH AND THE TIRE PRESSURES WERE CHECKED AT 80PSI BEFORE I LEFT. I ALSO HAD TIRE PRESSURE MONITORS ON THE TIRES. IF THE SECOND TIRE ON THE SAME SIDE AS THE FAILED TIRE HAD BLOWN, IT WOULD HAVE ROLLED THE RV. SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-350 SD EQUIPPED WITH GENERAL GRABBER HTS TIRES, SIZE 245/75R17 (NA). WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY, THERE WAS A LOUD EXPLOSION. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE INSIDE OF ONE OF THE TIRES WAS FLAT. THE TIRE WAS REMOVED AND TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE VEHICLE AND TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 31,000.

DURING REGENERATION OF THE DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER THE TRUCK LOSES POWER AND OPERATES ROUGHLY. THIS LAST OCCURRED AS I WAS MERGING INTO TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY DURING SLICK ROAD CONDITIONS. THIS COULD HAVE VERY EASILY RESULTED IN LOSS OF TRACTION AND/OR COLLISION AS I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE TO SPEED.

ENGINE STOPPED ONCE IN THE ROAD PULLING A 40 FT.R.V. .INTERMINTLEY SEVERE LOSS OF POWER AND TRYING TO OVERHEAT. COMEING DOWN A 7200 FT. MOUNTAIN I LOST THE R.V. BRAKES,ENGINE BRAKES & THE TOW HAUL MODE (TO HELP SLOW DOWN) ALL I HAD WAS THE TRUCK BRAKES GOING AROUND 80 M.P.H. BY THE TIME I GOT STOPPED ALL 4 WHEELS WERE SMOKEING COOKING THE RELATED PARTS, ROTORS, BRAKE PADS, CALIPERS,WHEEL BEARINGS IN MY OPINION.LATER IN A TOWN GOING SLOW AND STOPPING THE BRAKES PULLED VIOLENTLY TO THE RIGHT, A FEW MORE TRAFFIC LIGHTS THEN VIOLENTLY TO THE LEFT. FAILING TO CLEAN THE DIESEL EXHAUST FILTER AS NEEDED. SOMETIMES THE WIPERS COME ON ONE TIME WHEN STARTING THE ENGINE. 3 ATTEMPS TO FIX THE ENGINE PROBLEMS AND IN MY MIND IT IS NOT FIXED YET, MOST OF THESE PROBLEMS HAPPENED AT HIGHER ALTITUDES. ALL THIS INFORMATION SHOULD BE IN THE TRUCKS BLACK BOX, SINCE I COULD HAVE GOTTEN KILLED TWICE I HAVE NOT LET THE DEALER HAVE THE TRUCK AGAIN AS IT IS RUNNING O.K. NOW AND I HAVE ORDERED A NEW TRUCK BECAUSE I AM AFRAID OF THIS TRUCK. THE DATES ARE APPROXIMATE, THE DEALERS AND I HAVE A COPY OF THE REPAIR ATTEMPS . I WAS ON THE SAME ROADS TWO YEARS AGO WITH A 2011 F-250 SAME ENGINE AND A HEAVER LOAD AND DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS.

EPISODES OF VIOLENT SHAKING AND POOR ENGINE PERFORMANCE DURING REGENARATION. THIS HAS BEEN A ON GOING ISSUE. FORD CLAIMS IT IS CAUSE BY THE COMPUTER AND A REPROGRAM WILL BE OUT IN MARCH 2016. I FEEL THE TRUCK IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE SPECIALLY ON ICY ROADS.

AT TIMES WHILE DRIVING AT 50-55 MILES PER HOUR WHEN "CLEANING EXHAUST FILTER" MESSAGE COMES ON, THE ENGINE WILL SHAKE AND KNOCK VIOLENTLY. THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY AND AM UNABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM AT THE DEALERSHIP. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME BUT WHEN IT DOES IT FEELS LIKE YOU HAVE FOUR FLAT TIRES AND IT IS VERY VIOLENT. FORD SAID THIS IS NORMAL, I KNOW IT'S NOT. WE LIVE ON VERY NARROW AND WINDING ROADS IN THE MOUNTAINS. I'M AFRAID THAT IF THIS HAPPENS ON SNOWY OR ICY ROADS CONDITIONS THE VEHICLE WILL BE VERY HAD TO CONTROL. THIS HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES. THE DATE BELOW IS THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED, MILEAGE WAS 6,865. THIS FIRST HAPPENED AT ABOUT 4500 MILES. SEEMS TO HAPPEN AT ABOUT 400-600 MILES.
