This Problem Across All Years
WAS SITTING AT STOP LIGHT, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE WAS A POP, AND THIS TERRIBLE NOISE STARTED COMING FROM ENGINE AREA. PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT, AND CALLED MY HUSBAND. HE CAME DOWN, AND INSPECTED THE ENGINE. HE FOUND THE NUMBER 4 SPARK PLUG MISSING. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS FAILURE HAS HAPPENED. HAD TRUCK TOWED TO A FORD DEALER, AND THEY INSTALLED A SPARK PLUG INSERT, AND REPLACED SPARK PLUG, AND COIL. $424.52 WAS TOTAL REPAIR BILL WHICH INCLUDED TOWING. OLD PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. *TR

MY 2001 FORD F350 SUPERDUTY EJECTED A SPARK PLUG FOR THE SECOND TIME IN A YEAR. I FINALLY HAD TO BUY AN INSERT KIT TO FIX THE PROBLEM MYSELF COST ME 450.00 PLUS A NEW IGNITION COIL FOR 55.00. FORD WOULD NOT EVEN THINK OF TAKING THE BLAME FOR THIS PROBLEM TELLING ME THAT IT IS VERY UNCOMMON FOR THIS TO HAPPEN???????I DIDN'T HAVE A FIRE BUT I DID SEE SOME SMOKE AND SMELLED GAS VAPORS WHEN THE PLUG EJECTED IT ALSO SCARED THE HELL OUT OF MY WIFE AND I..IF IT HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE THERE COULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT FROM THE LOSS OF POWER AND THE SUDDEN SHOCK FROM THE NOISE.. I REALLY THINK THIS FAILURE IN THE FORD TRITON MOTOR SHOULD BE LOOKED AT CLOSELY AND MAKE FORD RECALL THESE ENGINES....THANK YOU DAVE CURTIN *TR

I WAS DRIVING A 2001 FORD F250 SUPER DUTY TRUCK WITH A DIESEL MOTOR, I WAS DRIVING ON A RURAL ROAD GOING ABOUT 55 MPH WHEN THE MOTOR DIED FOR NO REASON. I COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CALLED FOR HELP BECAUSE THE TRUCK WOULD NOT START. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THE CAM POSITION SENSOR WENT BAD. WHEN THIS PART GOES BAD THE ENGINE GOES DEAD. THE PROBLEM IS THESE TRUCKS ARE MADE FOR TOWING TRAILER AND WHEN THE MOTOR DIES FOR NO REASON YOU HAVE NO POWER TO STEER THE TRUCK AND THE BRAKE NO LONGER WORK. THIS PART NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED. I HAVE TALKED WITH SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN TO THEM AS WELL. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE HURT OR KILLED. *LA

MY TRUCK HAS STARTED TO STALL OUT IN REVERSE SINCE 9/19/01. THE PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED SINCE THAN. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND FORD CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT SEEKINS FORD IN FAIRBANKS ALASKA HAS SEEN THIS PROBLEM SINCE 1998 AND THERE HAS BEEN NO SOLUTION. CURRENTLY HE HAS 12 FORD F-SERIES TRUCK THAT ARE STALLING OUT IN REVERSE. IT ONLY STALLS OUT AT -10DEGREES OR COLDER. THE DEALERSHIP HAS CHANGED THE TRANSMISSION FLUID TO A SYNTHETIC FLUID BUT AN HOUR AFTER DRIVING OFF THE LOT IT STALLED 5 TIMES AND HAS CONTINUED SINCE. I HAVE HAD NO HELP FROM FORD AND I AM VERY WORRIED THAT MY TRUCK WILL STALL OUT AND NOT START IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND I WILL BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. I CANNOT BACK OUT OF A PARKING SPACE WITHOUT STALLING OUT 3-5 TIMES. MY STARTER IS NOW GETTING USED 5 TIMES AS MUCH AND I THINK THE REST OF MY TRUCK IS ALSO GETTING DAMAGE DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN TOLD TO CALL MANY DIFFERENT NUMBERS AND NOW I AM ALMOST TWO MONTHS INTO THIS PROBLEM WITH NO SOLUTION IN SIGHT. THERE ARE MANY OTHER PEOPLE WHO OWN THESE VEHICLES WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM BUT THE FORD DEALERSHIP ASKS PEOPLE NOT TO CALL CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE TO REPORT THIS PROBLEM. THE SEEKINS FORD SERVICE MANAGER(AL) 907-459-4079 HAS A LIST OF ALL THE PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HOPE THAT YOU CAN HELP. THANK YOU. *AK
