April 2005 was the first time the truck started to stall while driving. Syosset Ford's diagnosis was r&r cam shaft position sensor. The second incident may 2005. Truck stalling intermittently again. Syosset Ford unable to duplicate the problem. July 2005 a recall notice is sent from Ford stating the icp sensors may have been improperly manufactured causing the vehicle to stall. Third incident truck is still stalling intermittently on August 15, 2005 icp connectors are replaced. September 2005 a recall notice is sent from Ford stating the ep sensor may have corrosion at the electrode surface causing the vehicle to have a sudden loss of power. Fourth incident. January 23, 2006 check engine light is on and truck is still stalling intermittently. Egr valve and ep sensor are both replaced. Fifth incident August 28, 2006 truck still stalling and oil leaking from coolant tank. Replaced oil cooler and the egr valve for the second time. Truck still stalls intermittently. November 28, 2007 the starter is replaced. Stalling issue is becoming worse. There are times the truck has to be restarted 40 to 50 times a day. Starter is replaced again February 11, 2008. March 2008 truck will not start. Ford diagnosis no icp pressure. Replaced high pressure pump, leaky fitting & ipr. Truck is still stalling. September 16, 2008 Ford diagnosis found icp connectors & sensors were corroded. This will be the second time it has been replaced. Truck still stalls continuously. Ford looks at the truck again in September of 2008 and has discovered the diesel fuel tank is corroded and needs to be replaced. I believe that the fuel tank has always been the problem. Ford will not cover the fuel tank under their warranty. Mean while the starter is replaced again on November 20, 2008. This e450 vehicle hardly runs anymore. Please visit finishing. Com letter#44219. There are many people with Ford diesel trucks that are having the same problem. I believe this is recall issue.
