Problems with 2011 Ford F-350 ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

This is the 3rd. time that a egt sensor has failed on my ford f-350 diesel truck. this first time was in california in the desert traveling at 70 miles per hour. the truck shut down for no reason that i could see. i had a horse trailer with 5 horses on board and the temperature outside was 109 degrees in the desert. the truck was still under warranty and ford took 4 hours to come and rescue us. the truck and trailer was towed to the dealership where they discovered egt #10 had failed and shut the truck down to protect the engine. the egt sensor was replaced. the second time i had just left the dealership and the truck turned itself off again 130 miles away from the dealership. ford was called again and i was towed back to the same dealership. they discovered that egt sensor #11 had failed and was replaced. gee, only 2 more sensors to go. now on april 10, 2014, egt sensor #13 failed and i only stopped to get diesel fuel. i pulled out of the gas station and the engine just died in drive gear position. this time the dealership charged me for the service and part and failed to notify me of a recall on this matter and part. when pulling my horse trailer with prized and valued horses on board, i would hate to cause and accident or have an 18 wheeler rear-end me while stopped in the lane of a major interstate highway. i find it shameful that my own ford dealership, or for that matter ford motor company can take my $65,000 for a new purchase truck, but they can't inform me when my family, children, passengers or horses lives are in danger!!! i am also going to confront the dealership that charged me on april 10, 2014 for a recall that they say doesn't exist according to the ford motor company computer system and database. *js

Brought my 2011 ford f350 diesel truck into certified ford dealer to have oil change came back with a ticking noise, brought the truck back to dealer and they stated that this noise happens to the 6.7 diesel engines after a oil change.. i have bought my truck to many other places and have had the oil changed and i have never had this happen.. i am expected to have this noise for the rest of my ownership of this truck, if ford knows of this problem they need to find away to fix it!! *tr

My wife and i went to pick up the 5th wheel camper from the storage area. i backed up to the camper, put the truck in park and did a few things before my wife got out. as she was getting out i mashed the brake pedal fairly hard and placed the transmission in reverse. i didn't want the truck moving with the passenger front door open and whacking my woman. as the wife was getting ready to shut the door the engine rpm went sky high on its own. my wife looked at me as if to say what the heck are you doing! i gave her a blank/scared look as it was nothing i did to make this happen. i glanced at the tach and i was up over 2500 rpm, in reverse, but the truck wasn't trying to go anywhere. it was as if it had disengaged from reverse and was running wild. i put the transmission back into park and let go of the brake. the engine continued at high rpm for another few seconds (seemed like forever) and then went back to idle. i shut the engine off, sat for a few moments to collect my senses and then re-started the engine. ran through all of the gears and all was working fine. i then continued the effort to connect my camper to the truck and all went well. facts: 1. i am 100% absolutely certain my foot was not on the accelerator pedal and the brake at the same time. i never do this and have never done this by accident. 2. i have a witness and she was scared to death! 3. tsbs were current at the time of the incident. 4. this problem has never happened in the past. 5. my truck still has the infamous shifting issues (tip-in, 2-3 snap-shifts amongst other gear shifting issues) even after the 2011-7-?? tsb. 6. i cannot replicate this situation. if these trucks had black box recorders on them, when issues like this occur we could shut off the truck, pull the black box and take it to the dealer for diagnosis. *tr

The vehicle will suddenly and randomly lose power. it may last a few seconds to several miles. eventually the power comes back and the vehicle continues moving. this has happened at 55 miles per hour while hauling a full trailer. it has also happened in high traffic areas which presents a danger to the vehicles following me. i have had the vehicle in to a ford service department several times and they can't determine the problem. the loss of power happens several times every week. at this time ford is refusing to address the problem. *tr

Having owned the truck less than a month and driving in city traffic, the vehicle lost power and went to idle. this happens repeatedly. seems to occur primarily in city driving - not highway driving. have been to the dealership several times with no solution. they can find no codes. this is dangerous as i could be making a left turn in heavy traffic when it drops to idle and could be involved in a serious accident. we have now owned this truck for a year and it only has 6,800 miles on it due to the danger of driving in traffic. most of these miles have been from repeated trips to the dealership to no avail. *tr
