My engine light has come on as a result of an emissions problem. I have taken my truck to Ford service dept. 5 times, each time, they make an adjustment and claim there is nothing else to be done. How can I resolve this problem?.
Ford F-250 super duty crew cab (diesel) - purchased new in October 2016 - problem first appeared Nov 2017 and has recurred at least 6 more times. - description: at irregular intervals, all of the dashboard warning lights and system warnings (incl. Check engine, electric, oil pressure, tire warning, abs, select-trac, etc. ) go off. At that time, all gauges (except gas) fail including speedometer. The vehicle continues to run, but without working gauges, etc. If the vehicle is turned off, it will not start - at least not immediately. After some period of time, ranging from 20 minutes to overnight, the vehicle will again start, but may start flashing the same codes and warnings again. As previously mentioned, this problem has existed since 2017 and occurs at unpredictable times. - vehicle has been serviced by 3 different Ford dealers, none of which have been able to resolve the problem and in most cases, duplicate the issue . However, problem has been tentatively identified as a problem with the bcm (body control module) located behind the passenger side kick plate. One dealer allegedly replaced the bcm (in Feb 2020), but the problem has recurred 3 more times. - at present, the current dealer has advised that there is a huge backorder for the bcm (exceeding 1200 orders) as well as a "stop sell" order which they tell me is Ford's way of saying "even if you have this part in stock, you can't sell it" because it's likely defective. The service manager said there are no other sources of this part (aftermarket, etc. ). - because of the lack of reliability of the vehicle and the safety issues of driving without a speedometer and other necessary gauges, as well as the unknown damage that might be done to the engine, I believe the vehicle is a safety hazard to myself and others. - based on internet reports, this is a fairly widespread problem with similar reports affecting Ford trucks from 2012 - 2016 and possibly others.
Diagnostic trouble code p21b0 reductant level sensor c circuit high I know several people that have had this same issue concerning the def tank assembly costing close to $1000. A recall was issued for earlier models but doesnt cover my truck that now has this same issue. It's this type of failure that makes owners of diesel vehicles contemplate deleting these pollution reducing systems. Please consider an expanded recall.
The contact owns a 2016 Ford F-250. The contact stated that an unknown recall repair was completed on the vehicle however, two hours after the repair, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who diagnosed that the def heater needed to be replaced and the contact would be responsible for the cost of the repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage 120,000.
I recently received a warning for p20ba informing me that the truck had a failed def heater. The unit was not in warranty and parts estimate for this is $360. 00-$400. 00 with an additional $400. 00 dollars in labor for a total cost at minimum of $800. 00 to $1,000. 00 to replace a part that Ford motor company knew was a high failure rate part that would not meet industry standards.
The reductant heater and sender assembly failed causing the malfunction indicator to light. This is the same problem addressed for the 2011-2015 model year per customer satisfaction program 18m01. The fault was confirmed by rivertown Ford in columbus GA via diagnostic tool. Clearly the issue per customer satisfaction program 18m01 remains and is affecting 2016 model year.

Was driving down the road and the truck started leaking diesel everywhere. We took the truck to the dealership where they said that when the filter clogs the truck doesn't turn off it sprays fuel out of the top of the filter housing. This is dangerous as my wife was driving the truck and sitting in the truck for several minutes with it running not realizing it was leaking . It could have caught on fire.
Vehicle was parked at home and not running. Engine block heater was plugged in. Some time within an hour of plugging the block heater in the engine caught fire and was extensive enough to call the fire dept. Insurance company declared truck a total loss with no cause of the fire determined.
Vehicle has a hopping that occurs at speeds of 40-80 mph, have tried several remedies, none of which work. Hopping sensation is so severe that I would be worried to put children in the back seat of the vehicle. Manufacturer is aware of the problem, has a TSB in an attempt to remedy the problem. The manufacturer number of the TSB is 16-0087. Manufacturer claims issue is caused by frame flex. No known fix for the issue. Engine also has a consistent issue of putting diesel fuel into the engine oil, manufacturer also claims this issue is "normal".
