Three problems related to engine and engine cooling have been reported for the 2008 Ford F-550. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The contact owns a 2008 Ford F-550. The contact stated that while driving at unknown speed, the vehicle started to lose power and the engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic. The technician diagnosed that the engine was faulty. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 150,000.
We bought this truck and paid over 30k and put down 10k. They never gave us the full report history of the truck. . . With two to three months the engine went out. We took it to the mechanic and he told us its not worth it. The engine if replaced will go out again. Ford had a differentcompany build the engines and all of there engines were bad. I beieve from 2006 to 2008 until Ford took over. So, we bought this truck from 1900 hamner Ave, norco, CA 92860 (951) 737-6151. We contacted them and they did nothing about it. So, now I am still making monthly payments of 543 a month and the truck broke down around June July of2014. I've been paying for storage plus monthly truck payment. This company knew the history of the truck but they went ahead and sold it to us. I found out the history because the lawyer recommanded that to me. I guess its hard for lemon commercial truck to handle. I just want my money back and for them to take the truck back. They have been fraudlent about this.
The truck has not run properly since it was purchased, and the motor was replaced back in 2013 with mileage of 31,00 due to oil being splattered all over and no power. We had spend over 10,000. 00 to fix the defective issues. Now almost 2 years to the day the engine has again failed. Ford offers no help or explanations as to why this continues to happen. .
