My f250 super duty truck stalls while driving, specially after turning corner. All 3 times the complete fuel injector assembly was replaced , 5/15/07, 12/15/07 & 8/15/07. Had fuel tank cleaned and found rust remains in bottom of fuel tank. The computer and wire harness had to be replaced 12/15/07. Fuel tank rusts from inside and blocks fuel line from fuel tank and water separator and consequently starves injectors from fuel which is why they burn up. . Read more...

On March 2nd,2007 my f250 diesel pickup, that was idling in the driveway caught on fire. The fire started on the driver's side of the vehicle and it melted the brake fluid reservoir and burnt up the area surrounding it. My 11 year old son noticed the blaze and shut off the truck and popped the hood and tried to shovel snow to put out the fire. I quickly opened the hood and put the fire out with the surrounding snow. I contacted Ford about a recall that they have on the gasoline pickups and they told me there were no recalls on my vehicle. I talked to a local Ford mechanic that said it sounded like the cruise control is what started the fire. He then gave me the phone number for customer service and they sent me a letter that stated there was nothing they could do. I am not sure what my next step should be, but I am out a truck and I would hate to see any one getting hurt because of an oversight by the Ford motor company.

The cam positioning sensor in the Ford power stroke 7. 3l diesel has gone out at 60,000 miles. This caused the vehicle to completely shut down. This was not the only truck this has happened to. Many people I know had this happen within the first 100,000 miles. Ford repaired the cps for $400. 00 at my expense. Also the o ring in the high pressure oil pump went out at 71,000 miles with no warning, causing me to dump all of the oil out. I discovered it before it caused motor problems. Ford fixed this problem for $500. 00. Both problems a were very common with the 7. 3l and need to be addressed by Ford. They were not ordinary problems and need some kind of attention from Ford.

This is third cam position sensor this truck has had (140000 miles on truck). Has died twice while pulling into traffic, very dangerous almost caused accident both times. This is a very wide spread problem that happens with all of these 7. 3 powerstrokes. I carry, as a lot of people do, an extra one in the glove box for the next time it happens!.

1996 F-250 caught fire in my driveway while on vacation, and after not being used for 4 days. Fire investigators determined the fires cause and origin to be the speed deactivation switch which I received a recall notice to have repaired. Notice was rec'd in late August 2006, appointment made for October 11 2006 and truck burned October 8 2006. Ford quality control states they can do the investigation thru pictures e- mailed to corp. Headquarters, then states after seeing the pictures that the truck is too badly damaged to determine fire cause and denies the claim. Please help me.

I had raised my hood to check the oil, and there was smoke from the cruise control shut off switch located at the end of the master cylinder. It continued to smoke and burn until I unplugged it. It was nearly on fire. The body of the switch is melted and burned. When I went to Ford dealer on 4/17/06 for a replacement part, the parts manager thought that this might be part of the recall that is in force for the f-150. The service manager checked, and it does not apply to the F-250. This is disturbing to me, because the switch is that same for either vehicle.

While driving approximately 30 mph on dry level pavement, the engine returned to idle with no power. Pulled over to a safe place and tried again after re-starting. Drove approximately â½ mile and the engine stalled. No warning lights were on and after many more attempts, the vehicle had to be towed. Dealer located and replaced burned wiring harness directly below the turbo charger.
