13 Fuel Injection problem of the 1999 Ford F-350

Failure Date: 01/13/2000

Engine died while traveling with wife and small children in truck on freeway. Following engine failure, brakes and steering became very difficult to manage while coasting off of freeway onto exit. Two of these instances occurred while driving on freeway within 2 months of each other. Engine began sputtering and then died completely within 10 seconds. The truck had to be towed to shamrock Ford in dublin after each incident and no replacement vehicle was offered. After being fixed the 1st time there was a noticable lack of power and fuel consumption increased, leading to the second failure. I am very frustrated that the 40,000 dollar "dream truck" I purchased is a pile of unreliable junk. I bought a 5th wheel trailer to use with this truck and it is so unreliable that I am afraid to tow it anywhere. I will not allow my wife, who weighs 110 lbs, to take the kids anywhere for fear that she would not be able to control the vehicle if this occurred again. Do I have any recourse? thank you, tony zwetsloot.

Previous complaint #odi747045. I wanted to send you some more information concerning this problem as I am aware that Ford has had this problem with their vehicles since 96 when Ford bought back my vehicle and replaced it with another vehicle with the same problem. Recently I ran off the road with this vehicle just missing going over a sheer drop off of over 1,000 feet into the ocean. In my panic stop with no power steering and brakes the steering wheel was indented with my hand print and dented front section of wheel along with the shift lever breaking off during this panic stop. The dealer was contacted June 19, 2001 and I was informed they would agin be contacting Ford. I have received no further response.
