2004 FORD F-250 Engine And Engine Cooling Problems

ENGINE ACCELERATES SPORADICALLY ON ITS OWN. ENGINE OCCASIONALLY DIES AT STOP LIGHTS. MUST KEEP BRAKE PEDAL FIRMLY PUSHED AT STOP AS ENGINE WILL SUDDENLY ACCELERATE. I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED THE TURBO. THE DEALER SAYS IT COULD BE MANY DIFFERENT THINGS WRONG. THE 2003-2007 DIESELS ARE NOTORIOUS FOR BAD TURBO, FUEL INJECTORS AND A HEAD BOLT PROBLEM THAT REQUIRES REMOVING THE CAB. I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK NEW AND IT NOW HAS 39000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. *TR

2004 F250 KING RANCH. I HAVE HAD THE TRUCK SINCE APRIL 8. AROUND THE MIDDLE OF JULY IT STARTED HESITATING AND STALLING. IT WOULD HESITATE WHILE GOING AT ANY SPEED, AT ANY TIME, WHETHER GOING DOWN THE ROAD OR SITTING STILL. WHILE THE MOTOR IS RUNNING, IT WILL COMPLETELY LOSE POWER, AS IF YOU HAD TAKEN YOUR FOOT COMPLETELY OFF OF THE GAS PEDAL. AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT WILL REGAIN POWER, AS IF YOU PUT YOUR FOOT BACK ON THE GAS PEDAL. SEVERAL OF THESE OCCURRENCES HAVE BEEN VERY CLOSE CALLS FOR CRASHES AND COULD HAVE BEEN LIFE THREATENING IF NOT FOR OTHER ALERT DRIVERS. AFTER "REPAIRING" THE TRUCK THE FIRST TIME, I NO MORE THAN GOT IT HOME BEFORE IT WAS DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN. AFTER ORDERING SOME MORE PARTS AND "REPAIRING" THE TRUCK THE SECOND TIME, IT STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY AFTER FIRST STARTING AND WHILE IDLING. IT ALSO GAINED A LOUD SCRUBBING/THUMPING SOUND SOMEWHERE IN THE FRONT HALF OF THE VEHICLE. IT IS NOW BACK IN THE SHOP FOR THE THIRD TIME IN LESS THAN 1 MONTH. I HAVE HAD MY TRUCK FOR A TOTAL OF 4 DAYS OUT OF THE LAST 21 AND AM VERY AFRAID OF HAVING AN ACCIDENT IF THEY "REPAIR" THE PROBLEM AGAIN.
