Engine Exhaust System Problems of Ford F-550

Diesel exhaust fluid system failed shutting down my vehicle while driving and I had to be towed to a Ford dealer. This is a safety issue and could have caused a major accident on the highway. I never got a recall notice about this major problem. Now I am told I would have to spend over $5000. 00 to get this problem fixed. Ford had gotten many complaints about this issue. They should pay to have this repair done. I only had this vehicle for a short time and paid over $59,000 for it. I tried to contact several Ford executives over two weeks ago and heard back from none.

While driving a Ford F-550 that I bought used on 01-25-06 from hub city Ford in lafayette, la. . . The engine lost power and stalled on a 65 mph. Hwy (hwy 90). Apparently. . . There is good cause to believe that an ignored recall on this specific truck is the exact reason for this dangerous failure. Not to mention the now lost income from it being in the waiting line at hub city Ford. . . Where I had it towed. I was promised that all was inspected and in good working order prior to driving the truck off the lot. Well. . . It wasn't. I chose to see if there were any recall issues with this truck's VIN number at the Ford recalls website. . . Yes. . . This was what I saw: recalls results : be advised that this system tracks safety and emission recalls for which vehicles are subject to repair in the united states.
