general problems of the 2011 Ford F-250

The contact owns a 2011 Ford F-250. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the door ajar warning light illuminated and indicated that the rear passenger’s side door was open. The contact checked and confirmed that the door was securely closed. The contact stated that occasionally after closing and locking the door, the alarm would inadvertently activate after approximately an hour. The dealer was contacted and it was suggested that the vehicle be taken to be diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 234,395.

Short in body control module for fog lights.

At 89,000 approx. Miles, the clock spring in the steering failed and all buttons became useless on the wheel. The mechanic states it must be repaired ASAP as this will cause the airbag to either not deploy or randomly deploy while driving. This was a recall on f150s and should be a recall on the f250 as well since this is extremely dangerous for myself as well as other drivers. Due to it �not� being a recall, I was told by Ford they just had a bad run of vehicles around that time and since it hasn't been recalled then we would just have to pay for the repair over $500 to ensure my safety, but the new ones supposedly are much better. Ed sherling Ford claimed they just built bad vehicles then and had lots of electrical and safety issues. Sounds like the oversight authority failed to do its job with domestic vehicles. Probably why most people want foreign vehicles instead as they're held to a higher standard with better oversight that laid back union bosses in yachts pretending to handle their business here in the states. Sad America can't build a decent vehicle anymore. We were once the greatest, but now. . . We gotta get it cheap to ensure an 8 figure salary for some. Absolutely pathetic this was missed in such an expensive vehicle.

The truck went to limp mode for 3 sec then shut off. My son was driving and it shut of on a busy 4 lane road with nowhere to go ,no power steering ,brakes ,no motor nothing. Let it be known and I am coping this letter. This could be very hazardous even deadly. I hope something is done before it kills someone or multiple people. The vehicle was in motion when it happend.

Our 2011 Ford F-250 super duty (diesel) has issues with the egt sensors. This is the 4th one to go bad. We have had others replaced under warranty but it is now out of warranty. It appears to me that Ford has an issue with these sensors and needs to do something about rectifying this. This time we were in lexington, ky (over 2 hours from home). The dealership told me previously we could could safely drive the truck, so we came home. There is certainly a problem with these egt sensors that needs to be corrected.

The contact owns a 2011 Ford F-250 sd. While driving, the "pull over safely now" warning indicator illuminated and the engine shut off without warning. The contact was able to manually bypass the failure. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the egt sensor was defective and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was approximately 65,000.

My egt sensor in my truck went out that has to do with emissions this is the first one ive had to pay for but they have replaced another before warranty ran out. These sensors are faulty.

The contact owns a 2011 Ford F-250. While driving 45 mph, the vehicle shook and stalled. The steering wheel became difficult to turn and the brakes failed. The vehicle had a full tank of fuel. The vehicle took awhile to restart. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was unable to be diagnosed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 40,000.

This vehicles has experienced two incidents of the failure of the exhaust temperature sensors. The first in oct. 2014 the engine light came on, took the vehicle to the dealer where the issue was diagnosed and fixed. At the time I was a surprised to discover the purpose of the sensors, but not overly concerned. In April 2014, leaving town on a Sunday morning with a horse trailer in tow, at 40 mph on a city street received a message that told me to pull over safely and within 60 seconds the engine shut down leaving me in the right lane of a busy street with two horse int he trailer. No restart, called a friend to come help with the trailer and aaa to tow the vehicle to the dealer. This time a different sensor failed, with no warning. There are so many scenarios where this could result in a catastrophic event, including at highway speed, with the trailer or in a remote location with no ability to restart and move the vehicle. The concept / design of the sensor system makes no sense to me; sensor is designed to shut down the engine when egt indicate overheating, same result with sensor failure. The idea is shut down the engine before it overheats and causes damage, yet a sensor failure, which is apparently a frequent occurence, can create a very dangerous event. I would much prefer engine damage to the alternative.

Purchased 2mth ago. Would not start. Replaced batteries. 4 wks later "pull over safety" on & shut down on a windy road at 6pm. Vehicle towed to auto place. $1500 fix electrical problem. 1 mth later it does it again down busy freeway almost causing near collisions. Toad again. Fixed and same afternoon pulling out to state highway and same signal to pull over comes on & vehicle shuts down & backing up 5pm traffic before being towed again.

The brake pedal had to be depressed with excessive force in order to prevent the vehicle from jerking. The failure occurred on numerous occasions. The dealer stated that the failure was normal. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.
