The contact owns a 2006 Ford f450. The contact stated that the material in the fuel tank has detached from the inner structure of the tank. The material was in the fuel injector and caused the vehicle to stall and shut off intermittently while driving 65 mph. The contact has taken the vehicle to the dealer to replace the fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel sender, fuel filters, and the fuel injectors. The repairs have remedied the failure. The contact stated that the vehicle could have caused a crash while stalling on the highway. The failure mileage was unknown.
I own several Ford trucks, f450, vans and others. All the trucks have problems with the gas tanks, where the paint peels off and clogs the gas tank. I have attempted to reach the dealers where I purchase the trucks from and they don't want to do anything about this.
