The frame cracked, because of "customer satiisfaction program" 21b04 we inspected our frame on a regular basis. We are an independent repair shop. We sent pictures to Ford and they said wrong type of chassis to be covered. If you look back at a "terex" safety notice "sn-610-14" Ford has had this problem since 2006.

2015 Ford f550 v10 gas motor, the engine block heater shorted out and caught fire. Luckily only the license plate and an extension cord were damaged as well as the block heater itself. Contacted the truck dealer and Ford fleet, and no one cares. Vehicle was parked. I just happened to walk past and heard the crackling noise. Super hot, very lucky to just be there at that moment.
