The truck has developed a significant knock coming from the intake manifold. It is loud enough to hear with the hood closed. The problem exists warm and cold. The knock was verified by sunrise Ford in fontana, CA in December of 2024. The dealership had another f250 on the lot with the same 6. 2 engine and that it also has a knock coming from the intake manifold, so they considered the situation "normal". There is a significant amount of information available that the knock is related to an impending failure of the intake manifold runner control (imrc). If the irmc fails, the parts will go into the combustion area and could cause an immediate catastrophic failure of the engine. At best this problem creates a loss of power and a pulsing vibration at idle.

Subject: urgent safety concern regarding rocker arm failure on my truck I am writing to formally express my concern regarding a critical issue with the rocker arms on my 2019 Ford f250 6. 7l diesel which has caused significant safety concerns. I believe that the failure of these parts poses a serious risk to both the driver and others on the road. Recently, I experienced a failure of the rocker arms while driving. This unexpected breakdown caused engine misfire, loss of power, and unusual noise and severely impacted the performance of the vehicle. It is concerning that such a vital component could fail under normal driving conditions, compromising the engine’s functionality and potentially causing complete engine failure. The failure of the rocker arms is not only costly in terms of repair but also represents a significant safety hazard. Should the issue worsen while driving, it could lead to sudden loss of power, stalling, or even damage to other critical engine components, putting the driver at risk of an accident. This danger is exacerbated if the failure occurs while driving at high speeds or in hazardous conditions. I strongly urge you to investigate the underlying cause of these failures and provide a resolution as soon as possible. Given the serious safety implications, I request a prompt response with information on how this issue will be addressed, whether through a recall, repair, or replacement of the defective parts, and a review of any related safety concerns.

Below is what I'm experiencing with my vehicle and I want to see if there is anything I can do to get Ford to fix the problem. Is there anyway I can get my VIN on the affected list? the upper oil pan csat recall has affected a range of Ford F-250 models, primarily those equipped with the 6. 7l power stroke diesel engine. While specific years can vary depending on the exact nature of the issue and the recall campaign, it's generally considered that models from 2011 to 2020 have been impacted. However, it's important to note that the best way to determine if your specific F-250 is affected by a recall is check the NHTSA recall website: visit the national highway traffic safety administration's website (NHTSA) and enter your vehicle's VIN to see if any recalls are active. Contact your local Ford dealership: they can provide specific information on recalls and potential issues related to your vehicle's year and model. Consult the Ford owner website: you can often find recall information and service bulletins on the Ford owner website. By following these steps, you can ensure that your F-250 is up-to-date with any necessary recalls and repairs.

While on vacation, driving down a major interstate, our truck suddenly lost power. The driver slowly navigated to the side of the road and by the time we stopped flames were coming out from under the engine. We quickly got ourselves and three children out of the vehicle that, within minutes, was completely engulfed in flames. It was noted by police and the wrecker company that diesel fuel was on the road behind the truck and on the trailer that we were pulling.

The engine had a life threatening malfunction. Currently, there are arrangements being made to move the truck to my insurance company's property.

It happened so fast and without warning, we were blessed that we were able to escape the truck without losing our lives or getting severely burned. Anyone who helped or passed by was put at risk due to the fire or possible explosion that could have accrued from the truck fuel tank or trailer propane bottles. The fire inspector and insurance company have conducted there preliminary inspections and are in the process of writing up their reports. There was no warning lamp, message or symptom of a engine problem or failure prior to the engine bursting into flames, but the only warning that accrued after the engine caught fire, was the engine was being shut off.

This had not happened before and this is a vehicle driven daily. The term the came up with was a " catastrophic fuel system failure".

Our truck has been doing the "death wobble" several times over the last 2 years. The truck will suddenly shake violently at high speeds and go into limp mode. We have to pull over pumping the brakes slowly. It is extremely terrifying to have happen and we have spent thousands trying to get it repaired but it continues.

My vehicle caught on fire. I had been pulling my trailer and I pulled over to park when my truck began smoking. I attempted to open the hood and the truck was on fire. None of the sensors activated and I didn’t have any indication the truck was overheating.

While driving on the freeway the vehicle started to shake violently. I had to pump the breaks slowly and pull to the side of the road. After checking everything we took it to the shop and they did 2k in repairs and said it was fixed. It did it again. They said they don't know what it is.

I was driving my truck with no prior issues nor check engine light warnings, suddenly my truck began to lose speed, warning light came on instrument panel stating something to the effect of reduced power, I heard a loud noise (similar to the sound of a tire blown), as I looked out of the drivers side window I observed flames coming from the left front fender well. I was able to pull out of traffic coasting off into the median. Once in the median my wife and myself had to evacuate the truck immediately for our own safety. The engine compartment was rapidly becoming fully involved with fire. Attempted to extinguish fire with three fire extinguishers, called 911 and waited on fire department to arrive. My truck is now a total lose, I have read that your department has received similar issues that I have described. I felt it necessary to report my issue to hopefully help resolve this issue with Ford trucks.

Upon starting the vehicle the engine made a rattling noise. I turned it off and restarted it and the noise continued. Turned it off again and the noise stopped. Brought it the dealer with a video/recording on my wifes phone so they could hear the noise. The truck was there over a week with the service writer saying they could not duplicate it. The truck was there a few more days before the service writer told me they received a service bulletin instructing them to up the pressure on the oil pump. They did that and told me the truck was fixed. I went out yesterday and the noise has returned, again my wife recorded the noise. Bringing it back again to the dealer. We are afraid to use this truck as we dont want to have an engine failure. This has also been to the dealer for brake squealing and the instrument cluster going totally blank, again being told it cant be duplicated. This truck has 3400 miles on it.
