One problem related to electrical jack has been reported for the 2011 Ford F-250. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I purchased a new diesel 2011 F-250 lariat 4x4 crew cab 172¿ wb. I bought the truck based on the charts in a Ford brochure. According to the payload chart on page 39 of the brochure, the payload for my truck should have been 2,210 lbs. According to the towing chart, the payload for my truck should have been 15% of 15,700 lbs. , which is 2,355 lbs. I did not discover the discrepancy between Ford¿s published ratings and the actual capacity of the truck at the time of purchase because there were no footnotes in the printed brochure indicating the published ratings would not apply to my truck and because of where Ford placed the tire and loading information label. According to the NHTSA, for ¿vehicles other than motorcycles or trailers, the label must be affixed to either the hinge pillar, door-latch post, or the door edge that meets the door-latch post, next to the driver¿s seating position. ¿ Ford placed the label on the body below the b pillar and facing down. The label could not be read when entering the vehicle and could only be read by sitting or kneeling on the ground. I discovered a July 30, 2014 article in automotive news that revealed standard equipment parts were removed from super duty trucks beginning with the 2011 model year when determining the maximum payload. The parts included, but were not limited to, the spare tire, tire jack, radio, and center console. The Ford brochure did not indicate that the ratings were established by removing standard equipment. When I contacted Ford about the issue, I was told that the discrepancy between the published ratings and my truck¿s actual payload was due to ¿options. ¿ Ford¿s brochure neither footnoted the ratings charts nor disclosed that Ford had removed standard equipment to establish the ratings in the charts.
