EMISSIONS CONTROL, I COPIED THIS FROM ANOTHER BECAUSE IT IS MY EXACT SAME PROBLEM. FORD NEEDS TO FIX THIS BY THE KNOWN ISSUES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO GET FIXED UNDER WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A TSB, I WAS WRONG. WANTED TO CHARGE $281 JUST TO PULL THE CODE EVEN THOUGH I ALREADY DID AND TOLD THEM THAT THIS WAS MY EXACT PROBLEM. IN 2018 FORD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY PERIOD ON THEIR DEF HEATERS. THE WARRANT INCLUDED 2011, 2012 F250 THRU F550. THE WARRANT ALSO INCLUDED 2013, 2014, 2015 F 450 AND F 550 BUT EXCLUDED THE F250 AND F 350. IN RESEARCHING THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM, I SEE A NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO ARE HAVING THIS EXACT ISSUE WITH THE 2015 F 250 AND F 350. ALL OF THESE VEHICLES USE THE EXACT SAME 6.7 POWER STROKE DIESEL MOTOR AND I WOULD THINK THE DEF SYSTEMS ARE SIMILAR IF NOT IDENTICAL. FORD SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO INCLUDE THE 2013, 2014, AND 2015 F 250 AND F 350 IN THE WARRANTY THEY EXTENDED TO 11 YEARS. I HAVE OWNED TWO 2015 F 250 DIESEL TRUCKS AND BOTH HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE DEF SYSTEMS. MY TRUCK CURRENTLY HAS 106,000

AT JUST OVER 100000 MILES, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CODE P20BA CAME ON, REDUCTANT HEATER, TURN OUT AS IT IS AN F250 ITS NOT COVERED, BUT F450 AND F550 ARE. ALSO AS AIR TEMPERATURES ARE IN HIGH 80F, THE HEATER IS NOT REQUIRED. NOW EMISSIONS ARE NOT MEETING THE SPECIFICATIONS AND TRUCK COMPLETES MORE REGENS TO STAY CLEAN, INCREASING CHANCE OF HEATING NEARBY ITEMS (STRAW, GRASS AND HOUSEHOLD STRUCTURE) POTENTIALLY STARTING FIRES. THE REGENS OCCUR DURING HIGHWAY TRAVEL AND THE HEATING AFFECTS SURROUNDING AREA WHEN PARKED

I WAS HEADING FROM CIBOLO, TX TO KINGSVILLE, TX. (DISTANCE 181 MILES) UPON ARRIVING AT DESTINATION I SHUT DOWN MY TRUCK. AFTER APPROXIMATELY ONE HOUR, I STARTED MY TRUCK AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I CONNECTED MY OBD READER AND IT IDENTIFIED THE FAULT CODE P21B0 (I DID NOT CLEAR ANY CODES). FROM MY RESEARCH IT RELATES TO THE 'REDUCTANT LEVEL SENSOR 'C' CIRCUIT HIGH'. AFTER RESEARCHING MORE INFORMATION I STARTED LOOKING THROUGH THE INFORMATION CENTER UNDER THE VEHICLE SETTING AND NOTICED THE DEF LEVEL WAS BELOW HALF (I NEVER GOT A POP UP OR NOTIFICATION FROM THE INFORMATION CLUSTER). IN THE PAST THE INFORMATION CLUSTER WOULD DISPLAY THE LEVEL NOTIFICATION WITHOUT AN ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON. THIS TIME IT DID NOT. I PURCHASED SOME DEF AND FILLED THE TANK. IT ONLY TOOK TWO GALLONS OF DEF. THE ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON THE REST OF THE DAY DRIVING AROUND AFTER FILLING THE DEF TANK AND THE DEF 'BELOW HALF' NOTIFICATION ALSO REMAINED ON. THE NEXT MORNING I STARTED THE TRUCK AND THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS OFF AND THE DEF 'BELOW HALF' NOTIFICATION WAS GONE. *TR

DURING THE EPA MANDATED EXHAUST REGENERATION CYCLE THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO SHUDDER UNCONTROLLABLY ALONG WITH POWER LOSS. THIS BEHAVIOR BEGAN AT AROUND 5,500 MILES AND NOW DOES IT AT LEAST EVERY OTHER EXHAUST REGENERATION. IT HAPPENS ON MULTIPLE LANE COUNTRY ROADS AND CITY ROADS AT AROUND 50 TO 60 MILES PER HOUR. IT SEEMS MORE SPECIFIC TO THE REGENERATION CYCLE THAN ANY OTHER DRIVING CONDITION OR INPUT. TEMPERATURE IS BETWEEN 40 AND 70 DEGREES OUTSIDE SO FAR. EACH TIME IT HAPPENS IS WORSE THAN THE LAST. THE EXPERIENCE IS SCARY AND COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. I NO LONGER LET MY WIFE DRIVE THIS VEHICLE FOR FEAR THAT IT MAY SHUDDER HER OFF THE HIGHWAY.

I HAVE A 2015 FORD F-250 SUPER DUTY WITH A 6.7L DIESEL. I STARTED HAVING THIS PROBLEM INTERMITTENTLY AND ONLY NOTICED IT ON HOT DAYS WHILE AT SLOW SPEEDS, BUT IT HAS CONTINUED TO GET WORSE TO THE POINT THAT IT HAPPENED WITH EVERY RE-GEN, AT ANY OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE AND ALMOST ANY SPEED. IT ALL STARTS WITH THE NOTIFICATION ON THE SCREEN OF CLEARING THE EXHAUST FILTER AND HAS AN OK IN THE CORNER OF THE SCREEN. NOT SURE WHY THE OK, SINCE YOU HAVE NO CHOICE ON WHETHER TO START THE PROCESS OR NOT. DURING THE RE-GEN PROCESS THE ENGINE SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT ANY NOTIFICATION, LOOSES POWER, STARTS TO SHAKE AND SHUTTER SO VIOLENTLY THAT IT SHAKES THE WHOLE TRUCK. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IT IS TO PUT THE THROTTLE TO THE FLOOR. IF I LET OFF THE THROTTLE IT STARTS OVER AGAIN. THE TWO SAFETY CONCERNS THAT IT CAUSES ARE THE SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND MY TRUCK SUDDENLY SLOWING DOWN WITHOUT ANY BRAKE LIGHTS TO WARN DRIVERS BEHIND ME (I WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED LAST TIME IT HAPPENED IN TOWN) AND SECONDLY, HAVING TO KEEP THE THROTTLE ON THE FLOOR TO STOP THE PROBLEM AND THE SPEED THE TRUCK OBTAINS WHEN DOING SO. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I CANNOT STEP ON THE THROTTLE BECAUSE OF THE SPEED LIMIT, TRAFFIC OR ROAD CONDITIONS, AND AM FORCED TO PULL OVER IF THERE IS AN AREA TO SO, IF NOT I KEEP CHUGGING ALONG HOLDING UP TRAFFIC UNTIL I CAN. I HAVE NOT PULLED A TRAILER AS OF YET, BUT QUITE FRANKLY AN AFRAID TO DO SO WITH THIS PROBLEM FOR FEAR OF BEING REAR-ENDED. IT OCCURS AT SPEEDS FROM 30 TO 70 MPH. IT HAS HAPPENED IN TOWN ON RURAL ROADS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. IT HAS BEEN INTO FORD SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE LAST TIME IT WAS AT FORD, THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME FORD IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND WILL BE COMING OUT WITH A SOFTWARE REVISION, BUT NOT UNTIL APRIL OF 2016. THE TRUCK IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE UNTIL THEN.

AT TIMES WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE WILL BEGIN TO SHAKE AND LOSE POWER. THE ISSUE OCCURS DURING DIFFERENT DRIVING CONDITIONS AND HAS HAPPENED WHILE MERGING ON THE HIGHWAY. FORD SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS TOLD THERE WOULDN'T BE A FIX UNTIL 3/1/2016. IT'S AN ISSUE WITH THE PCM.

Mileage: 16,000

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PERFORMING A REGENERATION, AND YOU ARE GOING UP AN INCLINE, THE ENGINE CAN SHAKE AND VALVE KNOCKING CAN BE VIOLENT ACCOMPANIED BY A LOSS OF SPEED AND POWER. THE FIRST VIOLENT INCIDENT THAT HAPPENED WAS GOING UP A NARROW MOUNTAIN ROAD AND FORTUNATELY NO ONE WAS INJURED. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND CONTACTED FORD CORPORATE MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE AND UNWILLING TO SPEND ENOUGH TIME TO WITNESS THE ISSUE THEMSELVES. THE LOSS OF POWER OCCURS UNEXPECTEDLY AND COULD CAUSE SOMEONE TO LOSE POWER WHILE MERGING ONTO A HIGHWAY WHICH IS UNSAFE OR CAUSE THE VEHICLE BEHIND YOU TO REAR END YOUR VEHICLE WHEN THE POWER LOSS OCCURS GOING UP HILL.

WHEN THE CLEANING EXHAUST FILTER MESSAGE COMES ON, THE TRUCK RUNS EXTREMELY ROUGH AND THE ENGINE GETS A VIOLENT SHAKE WITH LOSS OF POWER. IT ALSO HAS A LOUD PINGING SOUND.

BOTH STATE THIS IS NOT NORMAL BUT FORD HAS INDICATED IT IS AND WILL NOT AUTHORIZE WORK UNTIL SOMETHING BREAKS. THE ODD PART IS THAT THE COMPUTER READS THAT ALL IS OK. THE DEALER STATES ALL IS NOT OK BUT THE ISSUE IS SOMETHING THE COMPUTER ISN'T TRACKING???
