Two problems related to engine cooling system have been reported for the 2005 Ford F-350. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I have a 2005 f350 4x4 drw 6. 0 diesel with 70,000 miles, the truck was started one morning and white smoke started coming from the exhaust and the truck had no power, there was no warning and the dealer says its the egr cooler and recommends that the head gaskets get done also for a total of $4800. 00. I have researched this problem and the International built motor has this problem alot but I have not seen any recall on this why??? for the cost of this type of truck it should last longer than 70,000 miles and if I would have been driving this vehicle what would of happened??? also per the dealer Ford knows this problem exist but yet nothing has been done to protect the consumer.
The public really needs to be educated regarding the fact that Ford motor company is covering up one of the largest problems in their automobile history regarding their hundreds of thousands of failed 2003 thru 2007 super duty 6. 0 diesel pickups. If you could be so kind please help me and hundreds of thousands of other owners of these failed vehicles. Please forward this email to your supervisors. I am currently re-pursuing legal action along with media coverage to expose this terrible situation with these Ford vehicles that is ruining family finances while trying to keep these vehicles constantly repaired. Many owners including myself our being forced to build much less than safe lifts to remove the cabs from these trucks to repair the constantly failing engine components. I tried to include these digital pictures clearly indicating the deadly cab lifts we our forced to try and build because of the dealer costs. Please indicate how I can upload these pictures for you review. For 47 years I thought Ford stood for first on race day. Wow, was I completely wrong! in the past 9 months I have spent over $15,000 out of my pocket and bank loans just trying to keep my Ford vehicle repaired due to their horrible engineering abilities. My warranty was 28 days out of warranty and 80,000 miles under in warranty. They refused to help me in any way, shape or form. I represented myself in two court cases against them and lost. When, not if, I can afford an attorney, Ford will finally be exposed to their cover ups from the public! Ford: fix or repair daily!!.
