Started my truck to let it warm up before i took it in to town. went inside for around 150 min, come outside and i seen smoke coming from my doors and as soon as i opened it feom the passenger door it was full of smoke and i seen a fire on my driver side feint seat. it completely burnt my truck and another f250 the was parked next to it.
I bought a used 2012 f250 four wheel drive that had no dome, cargo, or map lights but everything else worked normal. after replacing bulbs, dimmer switch, and checking all fuses i took in to my ford dealership and they found that due to moisture in the cab, it burned out the body control module aka bcm. rumor has it that these trucks leak water from windshield or firewall. i paid 650 to have it replaced.
Egt sensors shut down my truck in the middle of a 2 lane highway and would not start at all
Takata recall vehicle engine failure at speed, failed egt sensor caused the truck to shut-off in the middle of an interstate
Two different problems: first i was left stranded about 2 1/2 hours away from home because of a simple egt sensor defect shut down my truck. had to pay a tower $350 to drive my truck to dealership and they tell me it was a little sensor that left me stranded. this type thing shouldn't happen when you pay $60,000 plus for a vehicle. now months later i have another issue that from all the blogs say is a problem most 2012 models have called the "death wobble". it is now happening at least once on every drive i make. i have had over 8 situations where i have had to slam on breaks to make the vibration stop and the car behind me almost slam into the back of my truck. because once the wobbling starts you have to come to almost a complete stop before the wobbling will stop. my wife now refuses to drive my truck because she is scared to death to drive it. i don't even like to drive it, but it's necessary because it is the only vehicle i have to drive. i am at the point of wanting to trade it, but what kind of trade in am i going to get with this problem happening. my 2012 just has a little more than 40,000 miles, not very much when you are talking about a diesel engine. it is happening more often now than before, and i fell it will just continue to happen more. no one in my family wants to drive or ride with me in my truck anymore. it seems as though ford is refusing to admit that this is a problem on every online site i go too, i assume it will take a few people getting killed before they realize there is a problem. what are owners to due with this, because if we trade the truck know one is going to want to buy it. so once again the consumer gets shafted. nhtsa we are looking for you to help us with this problem before someone gets killed. please help us with this problem! please!!!!!!
